We have couple of hundred Philips curved 34 inch with USB-C and 65Watt PD. If you need more then 65 then look at something like the Samsung 34 inch viewfinity which has 90Watt. Make sure to get the builtin Webcam/Speakers, make Teams meetings a lot easier. One big screen saves the helpdesk a lot of hassle with arranging screens with dual monitor questions.
For anyone wondering, I bought the Samsung Viewfinity s65uc, 34". I couldnt really decide and just tried that one. Since it only supports 100hz, I guess it's not ideal for fast paced games, but ff 14 looks and feels amazing. The immersion is really something else. I work from home a lot so I tried to buy something that fits both needs and I am very happy with this monitor (around 300 bucks on a sale).
For curved i would recommend you consider the 34” the minimum. I had it and loved it but ultimately went with flat triple 27’s
I’m partial to 3400x1600 resolution monitors for work but really any ultra wide will benefit you. Lookup Fancyzones which is a built in windows tool that makes screen division options available. It’s slightly more but check out this option available at woot https://computers.woot.com/offers/samsung-s65tc-34-viewfinity-uwqhd-curved-monitor-13.
I use a Samsung 34” Viewfinity with mines. Perfect for me
Yes. Same experience I think but maybe if I went back I’d be able to tell. Have 2 Samsung 34.5” ultra wide curved. https://preview.redd.it/lxh9odk03mlf1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=78f2acf2b08b48472b18ab36c0a6937c22735eb9
I did the same, also not wanting to deal with triple hassle, upgrading from a 34” Samsung 1440p. After one race I knew I should’ve gone triples instead. My 32s arrive tomorrow. They were half the price and will provide larger FOV vertically and horizontally. Hopefully the triple hassle is overstated, but so far the stand choice has been a hassle, given it seems to cost more than the monitors.
I've had zero issues playing full-screen on an ultra wide monitor. I use a Samsung 3440x1440 UW (relatively cheap one from MicroCenter, paid $200 for it) and have had zero issues with scaling. My characters scale just fine. No short and fat or tall and skinny deformations. My hot bars are a tad smaller, but not enough so as to be detrimental. edit - but the UW does give me enough screen real estate to spread out my hot bars laterally, so I can have 16 hot bars up and still have more than 3/4ths of screen for the action. As to what you asked about how the game renders the periphery in UW...for me, it renders it just fine. No warping the edges or other deformations. Just more being visible side to side. Not really all that helpful in DDO, but great in my fps games (pubg, cs2)
