Widescreen Gaming Forum

Hello everyone,

First of, im not sure if this is the right forum (if not feel free to move it) second im new here, long time lurker tho.

A few days back the dell u2913wm caught my attention, its a pretty looking screen from what i can see from the movies on youtube. Now i know some people on this forum have one, and i was wondering (since the original thread is a now a few months old) what the experience was of people with this screen (in general but most important gaming wise).

In some movies i have seen that some current games support the resolution 2560x1080, but not all. Has this changed a bit already or is it still a mixed bag?

Im especially curious about games like starcraft 2, and maybe deus ex, because i havent seen those in the movies yet.

(excuse my english, its not my native language)

Thanks for looking.

I have the same exact question.

What I'm looking for:

- How does it handle SC2 where I believe Blizzard explicitly limited the max aspect to 16:9 for competitive reasons.
- How does it handle games in general that don't behave well past 16:9. With my current 3xL setup, I just end up using the middle monitor. With a 21:9 monitor will I have to set it to a 16:9 resolution (1920x1080) then tell the graphics drivers to letterbox it?

Thanks!

Check out my YouTube video if you haven't seen it. Anything that is Gold or Silver cert for multi-mon should do really well. AussieTimmeh has figured out how to run a custom 21:9 res on his NV Surround and has been updating as many DRs as he can. I'm doing the same as I get time. We should have the 21:9 grading out soon.
