I currently game on a MSI Optix 24c 1080p 144hz monitor. I want to move up to 1440p with a 27 inch display/IPS minimum 144hz. I mostly play RPGs and some FPS like, The Witcher, Sekiro, FarCry 5, Doom16/Eternal, Wolfenstein II.
But... while shopping I have been thinking Why just go up to 27 inches? I could go big and get a 34 inch ultra wide, 1440p, VA (because it will most likely be curved), and minimum 144hz. I have looked at reviews for each, and I have about 5 monitors in mind to choose from. What I am having trouble finding is reviews comparing the two. I see lots of comparisons between 27 inch 4K vs 34 inch curved ultra-wide, but none between the two specs I am shopping for.
Have any of you tried both of these setups? Any opinions, pros and cons you have discovered?
