Just got this as well. All hail the Taxman for giving me a hefty refund

I used to have a DELL 30" running at 2560x1600
Graphics card is GTX690

This is actually running a little smoother than the 30"

At work atm so no ingame shots...but here it is (sorry about the cable mess, am testing a lot of things atm )

G19 keyboard for size, and a 24" BENQ in P mode (sucks btw)



As for Games, I've tried the following sofar:

BF4
Wildstar

Titanfall (need to tweak it a little more got a weird lag spike in some circumstances)
Warframe

Divinity: Original Sin


Grim Dawn



NB: Sorry it took so long yo post the images, life is like that sometimes

I’m interested in the monitor. However, I don’t understand why the ratio of both the UM95 and the UM65 models aren’t 21 : 9 and they aren’t equal to each other.

2560 : 1080 ≠ 21 : 9
3440 : 1440 ≠ 21 : 9

2520 : 1080 = 21 : 9
3360 : 1440 = 21 : 9

I did find a source that indeed 21 : 9 TVs aren’t actually 21 : 9, but 64 : 27. And the interesting explanation how they came to the formats 16 : 9 and 21 : 9.

4 x 3 = TV Standard
4² x 3² = 16 x 9 = Widescreen
4³ x 3³ = 64 x 27 = 21⅓ x 9 ≈ 21 x 9

Cinemascope is 2.35 : 1
Anamorphic is 2.39 : 1
UM65 ≈ 2.37 : 1
UM95 ≈ 2.39 : 1 = Anamorphic

Then, taking the true ratio value of 64 : 27, we get:

2560 : 1080 = 64 : 27
3440 : 1440 ≠ 64 : 27
3413⅓ : 1440 = 64 : 27

I think the idea is that it's close enough. Also, this is WSGF, and wider is better my friend.

I just got mine and it's amazing. Some very slight backlight bleed towards the left corner and the rest is IPS glow.

Thanks for the pics...any in-game pics as well?
Love the Carlsberg Astronaut wallpaper

here's my setup.

The LG34UM95 is awesome. And the WD Velociraptor Duo Thunderbolt 2TB external drive is uber fast.

Anyone know where I can get some decent wallpapers that are 3440x1440?

Did you try deviantart yet?

I also saw a thread on hardforum with some cool looking wallpapers!!
search for hardforum and 3440x1440

I did happen to see that post on hardforum. And I also checked deviantart as well. I was looking for something in the "Space" realm but it's so hard to find. Unfortunately 3440x1440 doesn't seem to be as common as 2560x1080.

You can get quite a few 3440x1440 wallpapers here:

Just select the resolution from the drop down list.
