I'd like to get some input on people's opinions. I'm in the market for a new monitor, and I was all set to jump into the deep end of the 4k pool - mostly because my laptop is 4k, and I thought it would be nice to have consistent resolution sizes. I'm considering a 27" 4k form factor, if that matters.
I then had a thought - what about an ultra-wide setup and having a 34" WQHD resolution - that would be more useful for my day to day stuff but one question remains - how's the gaming?
On the 4k front, I'm not looking to play games in 4k, so I can see altering the resolution to something lower. If I do that will things look to fuzzy in the games? I'd imagine they would. My Thinkpad X1E, has a GTX 1050TI which isn't bad, but it clearly won't drive a 4k monitor playing games.
Would an ultrawide provide a better experience? Would games be playable at 3440x1440 or would they be stretched?
I usually like to play some RPG games, some older FPS, nothing too crazy and then some older games like fallout 4.
Any thoughts, opinions, and musings on gaming + display (and resolution) sizes will be welcome.
