MODERATORS
I've been using AOC CU34G2X, the 34 inch ultrawide mind you, and it's been great. You don't get a lot of bells and whistles but panel is solid, the refresh rate keeps up so I don't notice much ghosting and colors after a bit of calibration looks great. I think it's a nice price per performance monitor.
You could also check out hardware unboxed channel too, they do a lot of monitor reviews.
I love ultrawide for work, and like it for FPS and racing. However, anything with a mouse driven user interface where I travel more to click action bars, shortcuts, etc. gets on my nerves. Then there's older games that don't support ultrawide that display black bars instead. I think there's more to like about a larger 16:9 for me when gaming is concerned.
Do you have any advice on dealing with these issues I have? I reckon it doesn't bother everyone.
Black bars don't bother me much and as for games like RTS or SIM type games, I never had much of a issue with it since I'm used to keyboard shortcuts and dpi changes in the fly with a decent mouse at this point.
