That is almost what I want, but too wide, I like the normal ultrawide. Plus trying to play Cyberpunk on that would be a slide show.

5120x2160 is what I need next. Dell actually has one that is a 40" and 120Hz, but I think if I can wait a bit longer they should have OLED soonish. U4025QW is the model if anyone is interested, only $2470.

My neck hurts just looking at the product page. Wouldn't you need something like a 4090 to drive this thing?
Only low/mid settings. 4K is about 8.3 million pixels, this is more than double that (17 million pixels), it's literally wider than two 4K screens side by side. Plus this is 120hz

I'm not sure anything on the consumer market is going to run any visually intensive games at that resolution without really dialing down the settings. Sure maybe old games, but even Fortnite recommends a 4070ti for 4K and it's hardly the Crysis of our current era. Basically "hope you like counter-strike, because that's the only game that will run on this at full spec and native res"

With X-fire and SLI being as dead as the dodo, I'm not sure you could actually run anything new or demanding on that at or near high settings at the full resolution.

higher end modern cards can handle cyberpunk 60fps+ @ 4k before enabling upscaling. This would be playable but not amazing without upscaling but would be the kind of situation where upscaling would probably shine.

a 43" standard aspect already takes up most of my desk... Id have to clear the whole thing off to fit something like this. I imagine a racing sim + wheel is where this one would really shine.

Also to note, the mouse movement will be so f'ed up, I tried one of those 3440x1440 displays and it sucked for FPS. Have to adapt and develop new muscle memory.
