£1000 Budget. 

 

If I can come to terms with the purchase in the next 3 hours I can have it delivered by tomorrow from Amazon etc.

 

Currently thinking. 

 

X34 UW 1440

HP Omen 

HP Omen UW

Or the H28 Acer

 

4k or 1440 doesn't really matter as I've got my 4k TV for games like SOW and Skyrim and Final Fantasy etc (controller games) 

 

Ultrawide scares me only because of the lack of support on some of my older titles. But I'm willing to venture to new places.

If it launches from Steam you can always set it to 21:9

My final Fantasy 13 only supports 16.9 not 21.9 :( I'll just play that at 4k on my TV. 

 

So the x34a is the daddy? Any others I should think about? HP Omen have an Ultrawide coming out.
