Two main questions. I'm currently using a 27" and is a 34" the same height, or would i need to get even bigger, something like a 38" ultrawide? Also, how well do game developers support Ultrawides?

A 34" ultrawide is the same height as a 27" 16:9 monitor. Games support 21:9 pretty well these days.

Why do Java developers wear glasses? Because they can't C#!
