Cobretti2 said: The main reason I even contemplated the curved Ultra Wide Screen monitor was the benefits it would offer when working (also has a rail and cradle to hold up my webcam for work), having two things side by side but did not want to compromise on gaming but for work. Also I herd movies are great on 21:9 screens. |
There are also some downsides, 16:9 content may not scale appropriately.
Do note that higher resolutions will ask more of your hardware, 1440P is definitely the sweet spot right now.
Cobretti2 said: The thing that is turning me off the VA panel is that I read that people complained about ghosting in games. However the better angles and blacks make it a better option for watching movies. SO not sure if the ghosting is bad enough for me to say no to the VA, or if it would be tolerable by me. |
The higher the refresh rate, the less ghosting you will have... This goes for any LCD technology.
It is certainly a little more prevalent with VA, but I doubt it's much of an issue with higher 120-144-180-200hz panels.
Cobretti2 said: MS also announced a MEG381CQR (which has the same benefits for work as the MPG341 above) which will have an IPS panel, however it is 38inch lol. Ideally hoping to see maybe a 32 inch or 34 inch announced. |
I personally stick with IPS, but VA does have some advantages in the blacks department,
32" is a good size, been using one for a few years now.
LED or OLED in the mainstream needs to happen sooner rather than later.
