I did it and bought the 4k 240hz monitor soon as they dropped, because after you have seen better, it is hard to go back (at least for me it was). Recently upgraded to the 39 inch LG UW because I wanted 4k like resolution in UW format.
Okay so mine is a WQHD LG 39GS95QE. So this isn’t really too big of an issue. I like it so far, much better than my older LG 32”. But I mostly game and switch from PS5 to PC would getting this 5k2k really matter?
Triples. You can still do triples with regular 21:9 ultrawide. But 49" 32:9 monitors i.e super-ultrawide have the same height as a 27" 16:9 monitor. They are basically just two 27 inch monitors stitched together. Here's a [great visual comparison](https://imgur.com/gallery/super-ultrawide-ultrawide-monitor-comparison-CiMeJMT) to give you a better idea of relative monitor sizes.
If you want single 'big' ultrwawide monitor, then a [45" 21:9 ultrawide](https://www.amazon.com/LG-45GX950A-B-Ultragear-Dual-Mode-FreeSync/dp/B0DYG9DKX8?th=1) is a way better experience IMO because you get so much more vertical real-estate than even a 54" 32:9 super-ultrawide. Price is a different disucssion.
If you want the best of both world, you can do triples with [40" 21:9 ultrawides](https://www.amazon.com/LG-Ultragear-Curved-Gaming-Monitor/dp/B0DXS21FPG), which are the height equivilent to 32" 16:9 monitors.
With regular 16:9 triples, 32-42in is the sweetspot. However there's a bit of a deadzone in the 34-40in range for decent gaming monitors ATM, at least ones with things like OLED and 240hz refresh rate etc.
Personally, in a perfect world I'm a fan of triple 40" 21:9 monitors. You get the height of a 32in monitor, an ultawide single/main monitor experience, while stlil being able to run triples effectively.
just picked up the 39GS95QE-B. No speakers is annoying. I'm not sure if I can live with this blurry resolution that looks OK if you stay 4 feet away 😒 .ight be a costco return
OP the 45 inch could work. I just returned the LG 39GS95QE, 39 Inch, 1440p, 240hz, Oled. Tbh I thought it was awful for productivity and only OK for gaming.
1. The text at this size looks blurry, made my eyes tired.
2. VRR flicker is annoying as hell... this can be improved by lowering the refresh rate.
3. I felt when gaming due to the resolution the characters looked bloated. Like playing 2560x1440 on a 3440x1440 34 inch ultrawide.
4. The fact that you'll get screen burn if used for productivity.
Thought I would be blown away by oled and dont get me wrong colour and blacks were amazing but due to the above it's getting sent back.
For now I'll stick with my Acer predator x35 ips ultrawide. If you get the LG 45 5k2k let us know how you got on.
I have the 39”. I am happy with it. Push it further back and it’s just fine. Plus 1440p is much easier to run than a 5k2k will be by a lot. If I did any productivity it wouldnt be great.

Huge, immersive OLED, but 800R curve distorts productivity.
