Is 21:9 a meme? I was thinking about getting a new monitor (currently using a 720p tv) and I wanted to try out something like pic related

It's the worst /v/ meme.
For nearly anything besides movies and a subset of games, having a vertically cropped workspace is a productivity killer.
Get a 2560x1440 instead of 2560x1080 or a 3840x2160 instead of 3440x1440.
>21:9
Why isn't it just called 7:3?
Only quality 4k displays are worthwhile
Not enough is spent on quality displays

Jesus Christ dude you broke everything, alert the media.
>>54882282
Cause 21:9 is 3x better
>>54882282
For the same reason 16:10 is not called 8:5

> Not 48:27
>>54882282
If we used 7:3, normies would think 16:9 is bigger than 7:3.

same reason is not called 8:5.. memes

Needs to be sufficiently large in order to not be shit. You can fit 3 good-sized windows, sure, but if it's small, the screen will be uncomfortably short.

I use a smaller 21:9 that I got recently. Like most things once you get used to it it's not very life-changing. A nice big 3440x1440 one seems like it would be super comfy though.

You'll have to get a 3440x1440 model for it to not be garbage in vertical screen space.
Then you'll probably want a 100hz refresh rate which leaves you with like 2 models and they are over $1k.
So there ya go.

you are right, f*ck normies XD
I have one of those OP
I admit I would like to have a normal 2k monitor better for some things, but games and movies are really fucking sweet on this
