I could probably make videos about nothing but monitors at this point. They are so, so important because they are how we experience our content... I used to have a 4k monitor, but it was so large that it was difficult to see what was going on in the games... unless I sat 6 feet away, in which case I was defeating the purpose. A smaller 4k monitor can look crisp, but you have to turn on resolution scaling, which removes the extra desktop real estate you'd be getting...
Then there's 3840x1440 ultrawide, which is a very popular resolution for gaming... but 1440 is a bit too wide for productivity imo. That's where 3840x1600 comes in. The little bit of extra desktop real estate really make all the difference. Watch the video to hear why.

I love my AW3821DW and got it after it released during Black Friday 2020, zero issues 2.5 years later. I agree 100% that it's the perfect size and resolution without needing to deal with 4K res scaling and I'm glad that others like yourself also think the same! Seeing this size/res with an OLED panel would be great, but I want to see a 2nd generation OLED that can deal with the text color fringing issue stemming from the different pixel structure that current OLED monitors have. Otherwise, productivity and text-heavy apps will likely be too distracting with current OLED panels.

Excellent perspective and logic as I just built a new computer and wanted to go above the 32" 16:9 monitor I have. I was looking at 4K first then Ultrawide. Suddenly, I had exactly the same thought that you brought up - I really want some increase in vertical space. So, I started looking at 38" monitors and found your video. My only concern is that older games will not support this resolution, but you seem happy with yours and did a nice job of covering the concerns that I had - time to take the plunge since Dell has this down to $900.

For all the reasons you mentioned, I've been waiting for a new 38" monitor with that resolution and aspect ratio (1600p, 24 : 10) to enter the market, but it's still a niche, unfortunately. Prices are still too high and not even competitive with monitors with higher-end, newer panels. I'm probably going to end up pairing a 27", 32", 34" OLED with an LG DualUp (28", 16 : 18) secondary to get a good mix of gaming + productivity + content consumption use.

I got this exact monitor, and it's the sweet spot IMO. Was able to comfortably replace my dual monitor setup (unlike my prev 34" ultrawide where I still needed a 2nd screen). Then compared to 49" 32:9, its preferable because that is too wide and lacks the extra height. Takes up too much of the desk as well, like you said. 40" 4K would be similar width with even more height, but I feel the 38" 1600p is high enough. Those 40" would take up a lot of desk space too (they're basically TVs).

@Great_America Жыл бұрын

Alienware needs to give us an OLED version! I already own the AW3423DW QD-OLED and it’s absolutely amazing! Also, for those that may not know, 3840 x 1600 is the same aspect ratio as 3440 x 1440, it’s just the next step up in pixel resolution @ 21:9 👍🏻 And for those curious what the diagonal measurement of 3840 x 1600 on the LG 42” OLED, it’s 39.5 inches - also most 40 inches. The only bad is there will be black bars on the top and bottom.

@hellowill Жыл бұрын

I want a GOOD 3840x1600. So far, we don't have many to pick from. Most have bad local dimming. Most are over priced. We need a Micro-LED version with 144hz or higher with 1000+ dimming zones. OLED looks great, but I don't want to worry about burn in on my monitor. So in the meantime I am using the 32" 4k LG32GQ950. It too has flaws but I will not give up vertical height and go 1440p like on 34" widescreens. it's also not 40-43" so I don't have to run my head to view games.

I think it could be fixed with software, but no OS vendors have implemented a fix for the novel subpixel layout. So I'm sending it back and getting an AW3821DW (and saving a ton of money at the same time).

I often like to use a custom 3840x1600 resolution on my 42" 4k OLED for some games. Usually in an effort to get more performance, but it also helps a lot in FPS games because the centered window is right at eye-height and you get a wider FOV in-game. I would only recommend doing the truncated custom res if you have an OLED so the black bars don't glow.

@TheIrisCZ Жыл бұрын

An interesting take. I would agree in the past, but currently, I just cannot - especially because of the scaling. It's weird, but right now one of my favorite displays is a measly 24inch IPS panel, however, it's 4K and glossy (yep, one of those LG UltraFines). Because of that, you can pretty much scale everything two times and achieve awesome clarity. Even though the specs are mediocre at best for the price, I just keep coming back to it. Still, that's only for work, because the crisp text and nice brightness really help with that. Otherwise I am gaming on an 65inch 4K 120Hz OLED TV and again, I would change nothing about that setup. It's true, that it's more of a console setup (even though I do have my gaming PC connected to it as well) and it's not suitable for competitive games like CSGO, Dota etc. But again, the resolution and size in conjunction with the sitting position is just superb.

I have a ~2015 Dell 4K 27 inch that I’m running at 150% scaling in windows. I work from home and occasionally game. It’s a great screen, however I spend all my day going backwards and forwards between slack, teams and chrome and I’m now at a point where I want enough screen to spread them out. I also want to have immersive gaming and push my new 4080. I don’t want to give up the vertical height, so I don’t like the 32:9 ultra-wides at 1440p. DPI is very important as I read text all day.

just a little explanation, that monitor aw3821 is 21:9, 34" is like wide 27, and 38 is like wide 32. Benefit is resolution going from 3440:1440 to 3840:1600. I personally find 34" too small, so i also look for some 38" screen.

The 45 is so big that more vertical would be kind of insane, but the curve makes the display almost perfect from a few feet away. Especially in gaming. It's unreal!

I'm sure you've already heard about it, but Samsung will be releasing their new Neo G9 later this year that's a resolution of 7680x2160, which is basically two 32-inch 4K monitors together. I thought you'd be interested in that since you love having more vertical space on your monitors.

My monitor is a Asus ROG PG278qr with 1440p, 3D vision, gsynch, 165hz and 27" - I love this monitor, its the best I've owned for 3D stereo gaming. I hope they hear your feedback and consider your proposals, keep well and Happy Weekend Logan.

Picked up an as new in box Dellianware and Ive never been happier. I dont have to worry about burn in and 4K movies in letterbox format fit these perfectly. Sure, its not perfect but I wasn't gonna sit around waiting for oleds in this size/resolution forever.

What monitor arm do you use on the Alienware monitor?

Have used all these screen sizes, still went down to a 32" 4K monitor. The unorthodox screen ratios ultimately become a fad that wears off for the traditional ratio. Game UIs being a big impact but also field of view (vertical) and pixel density.

in 2014 i used a 42" lg tv as a monitor replacement, just 1080p 60hz stuff. Was sitting on my desk so arguable way to close. And as a result most fps where a pain in the rear to play on. You end up lost and moving your crosshair around like crazy missing shots left right and taking ages to acquire a target. (And let´s not even talk about you having to move your head to check the ui/map/etc in the corners) Switching back to a 24" and the issue was gone. In other games it was however amazing and the immersion was a lot better. Nowadays i am using a 27" asus 1440p ips screen which seems like the perfect size. Still 16:9 but i don´t have much experience with other screens just that i never got to like 21:9 ultrawide, felt like i am stuck in a tank having to look through vision slits with the small/narrow (from top to bottom) ultrawide.

i went from 2560*1600 to 3840*2160 on a 43inch dell. and i love it .. really agree with your statement that things like resolution are very important.. i have a higher resolution on one laptop 15inch that has a resolution of 2560*1440.. that's way to small need to upscale real hassle even on windows when i connect my 3840*2160 it still wants to apply the up scaling to the external monitor. on my one year older laptop before they did the upgrade 15inch with 1920*1080 good enough for such a small screen..

I built a new computer with the Ryzen 5800x CPU to replace my old FX-8350 that has seen better days. This video has come at a great time because I had been looking for a new monitor as well. Now what do I do with my old 16gig ram FX-8350 rig? NAS, Valheim Server, browser & email box? Any suggestions? Love the channel btw!

I could not swing the price of one of these, but I did pick up an Innocn 40C1R 40" 21:9 1440p monitor. I love this thing. Perfect for editing my B&W photos and gaming. Black Friday sale had it for $400 instead of $600 so I nabbed it. I had a 32" 4k monitor before, but had to down rez it to 1440p to be able to read the text. This being native 1440p make it super sharp.

i went from a 1440p 32 inch to one of these even over such a big screen the pixel density is so much better but is still less pixels than 4k which is great for gaming. I hope they release this exact form factor and resolution in OLED and 240hz it would be absolutely perfect
