do you guys get any fish-eye effect in these ultrawide monitors?.
since the introduction of widescreen monitor (16:9), i've noticed almost every 1st & 3rd person shooter game has serious fish eye effect on the left and right side of the display. anything goes wider at the side, which really turns me off.
in movies, 21:9 is captured properly with no fish-eye effect. in gaming, anything that's not 4:3 or 5:4 has fish-eye effect.

Forgot the exact technical terms, but basically G-sync technology will sync ( duh  tongue.gif  ) your GPU output and monitor's refresh rate. Tearing are caused by out-of-sync ( either GPU send frames too fast or too slow to monitor )

I thought G-sync only benefit at >60Hz

during in-game cut-scene/cinematic, is it presented in 16:9 with pillar box or stretched to 21:9?

Bend-able ultrawide from Corsair (with LG) tongue.gif

Or just stay with LG 45GR95QE (don't like the excessive bend though)

Why is BenQ EW3880R so expensive (RM 4278)? Only WQHD 60Hz.

Got myself the AW3423DWF last month and just after a week of usage the monitor has a vertical line that appears intermittently.

Contacted Dell and they can only replace it with a refurbished unit. I insisted on a brand new unit but they don't have it. What a bad experience sad.gif  What other options do I have?

u bought it when it was RM3999, right?

anyone here use asus pa348cgv? i wonder how good is the IPS glow lottery.

Hi guys,

I am planning to get an ultrawide with 21:9 for gaming purposes.

Eyeing this one : https://rog.asus.com/my/monitors/above-34-i...-oled-pg39wcdm/

But i saw many reviews saying the HDR has some issues. And Asus monitors that are > 40inches are all 31:9, which i think is too wide and not widely supported by most games.

As i checked Alienware, the biggest monitor seems is only 34 inches, which i need at least 39 or bigger.

Samsung seems having the same case as Asus, > 40 inches seem are all 31:9.

Any recommendation for an ultrawide 21:9 Oled with minimum 39 inches that are good for gaming and no hdr or known issues? And with display port 2.1.  I will pair this monitor with next year's rtx 5090. Thanks.

that asus's 800R curvature seems too much for me to handle
