3440 x 1440p is the truth :wow:

I can't seem to get Fallout 4 to work though. @Hiphoplives4eva or @Barney Rubble, how did you get Fallout 4 to work? I tried the Flawless Widescreen fix, but it's not working. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks :salute:

Edit: I edited some .ini files and I think I got it working. Poor SLI scaling though. Might have to turn SLI off for this game. :francis:

3440x1440p....holy shyt :wow:

3 monitor gaming is over.. 21:9 is more than adequate, and I can use my Titan X sli setup to the fullest.

I've been fukking up with triple monitor gaming. This ultrawaide is the truth. :wow:

I might buy another one and really fukk up the widescreen gaming situation :wow:

I think 2x ultra wide monitors would look strange to me.

Yeah, shyt would look odd. Plus, my Titan X's couldn't push it at that resolution.

I love my ultrawide though. Just thinking of two next to each other makes me :ohlawd:

I'm missing some of the real estate that 3 monitors gives you, but I think I can adjust.

I wish the curve was a bit more pronounced, but it's still pretty good with the FOV in games :ehh:

gtx 1080 reviews and benchmarks are out there. looks about 20-30% faster than the 980ti
I'm gonna wait until the Titan or Ti version. I want 30-50% faster. Plus, I wanna try to buy just one card (fukk SLI). I guess I'll wait a half-year (hopefully sooner though).

I also read on gaf that all the initial 1080s are gonna be "founder's" editions ($700). That is pissing a lot of people off. I mean, if you are still rocking the 700 series, the 1080 is a nice jump, but if you have a 980ti/Titan X, it's not really worth it the money my opinion. especially if the Pascal Titan will be $1K, like every other Titan :manny:

Nah, breh, nah. AMD is going the cheap route with their new cards. They go for the budget crowd. They essentially said that in their statement. Nvidia will always be ahead on PC it seems. I don't expect the 400 series to be anything special. AMD is dying in the PC market, and that's why Nvidia is charging $700 a card for their new 1080s. I wish AMD was more of a competition. It would bring Nvidia prices down. That fact that you have a 290x and not a 390x speaks volumes. The Fury cards were nowhere near the performance everybody thought. AMD is dying in the PC market. Their revenue shows that as well. AMD has the console market on lock, but they still lose money. I don't get it :mindblown:

Goddamn, 34 inches is fukking great when it's on your desk and you're so close to it. I might start watching movies on my monitor instead of my 4K TV. 21:9 :wow: :blessed:

Best $800 spent in the last 6 months (and I bought a Rift and Vive during that time period) :wow:

The Witcher 3 looks so nice :wow: Plus, the expansion comes out at the end of the month :blessed:

side note: I wish the EVGA step-up program was more than 90 days. I'd buy the 1080s and then upgrade if they gave me a year.

I tried to tell you a year ago, bruh :francis: Ultrawide is dope as fukk. None of the hassle of triscreen and most games just work on release with next to no tweaking. Movies without black borders are :banderas: And it's 3k so if you download a 4k movie you can watch it at nearly it's native resolution but in it's native aspect ratio which is better than a 4k tv IMO. Also MOST 4k movies are only 2k upscaled to 4k anyway like The Martian.

The 1080/1080ti/new Titan have Displayport 1.4, which allows 190hz at 3440x1440 :ohlawd: You're gonna be upgrading your monitor next year for that, trust me.
