As the topic says...And are 21:9 sensible for gaming, because I would like to get into immersive gaming. FPS MMO games

 

And I checked my graphics card can handle it if so..

My Rig; Motherboard - Asus P8Z68-V PRO, CPU - i7-2600k @ 4.1GHz, GPU - Asus STRIX 980, RAM - 8GB Patriot G2 @ Stock,

CPU Cooler H80i, PSU - Corsair CX500, Case - Fractal Design R4, Rear Exhaust - Noctua NF-A15 without silent cable, Front Intake - 2 x Fractal Design Silent Series R2 Fan

Some games 21:9 is great for eg flying games with planes. Anyways I think every modern game will support the res. The only problem is that the screen will look quite weird when you first see it, you will understand why if you get it.

It's different on a game by game basis. It's usually configured by some simple script editing, just adding extra lines for custom resolutions and aspect ratios.

The game engine's usually compatible with what ever resolution you want, the developers just haven't deemed it necessary to add the extra code for abstract screens.

It's usually similar this process even though it's a different game. You'll just have to look for a tutorial specific to the games you play and follow them for each.

 

Hope this clears things up a bit  :D

Some games are hard coded to be block 21:9, to avoid advantages in games (seeing more than other players)

Check out wsgf.org. They can tell you if there are fixes for your games.
