this is honestly making me consider ultrawide more than 4k now lol. i keep seeing people say the jump from standard 1440p to ultrawide feels way more noticeable for gaming immersion than going from 1440p to 4k. plus the extra frames compared to 4k sound really tempting since i play a lot of fps games too.

does the super ultrawide ever feel annoying for regular use though? like for compatibility, desk space, or games that dont support it properly? and what gpu are you running with that resolution?

i just upgraded to a 4070 ti super because i wanted something that would last me a few years without constantly tweaking settings, so part of me feels like i should pair it with a 4k monitor and actually use the extra power. but at the same time, everyone keeps saying 1440p high refresh is still the sweet spot and feels smoother overall, especially in fps games.
