This is the screen you really want.

The disappointment...

2560 x 1080 is piss poor for gaming, or at least if you take your gaming seriously.
The only Ultra Wide resolution a "Real" gamer should be interested in is 3440x1440.

2560x1080 on a 29"/34" monitor is terrible....

It's still decent on a 25"monitor but not on the larger ones.

Also nothing looks better than 4K gaming and we're now in a spot where you can play 4K on a single card, even though the single card has to be a minimum of a GTX1080 or a Titan XP.

I really want a 34" ultrawide. It has to be 3440x1440 though. The one I want:

- UWQHD 3440 x 1440 resolution with 100Hz
- Embedded 178° wide-viewing angle IPS panel.

Does it make coffee? At that price it'd better make coffee. And not the cheap-ass Frisco variety either.

Yep that's the thing that keeps it out of reach. One day though
