I've just fallen in love... for a monitor

**vid**

Oh, if only I had the money, the space (that thing is huge!) and the GPU power to run it

I wan't three.
Racing sims would be freaking awesome on three 21:9 panels.

The problem with 21:9 aspect ratios though is allot of games simply don't support it, StarCraft 2 and Diablo 3 being prime examples. (Althought Blizzard cites those with such aspect ratios get an unfair advantage which is fair enough.)

Older games stuck in the 4:3 land is equally frustrating. :(

Majority of games you just need to edit a configuration file, unless it's an unreal powered game, then you're screwed more often than not. :P
Probably best to stick to 2560x1440 which retains the 16:9 layout, can be had cheaply these days (Think as low as $300) and some panels allow you to overclock them to 120hz.

I dont think aspect ratio would be a problem with this monitor if, and only if, that 16:9 mode that is shown in the video really works (and by that I mean that the sides are really black). I could certainly life with that.

Unfortunately those cheap Korean 1440p monitors are nowhere to be found here in Spain. The cheapest monitors with that res are still around the 500 € mark.
