So yeah, first time poster but long time lurker. I've been looking for a new low-latency monitor with all the 120Hz no-frills-IPS / No-Blur-Lighboost-TN trickery going on; however, I'm really reticent to buy one of those Korean monitors if I'm going to end up having to take thing apart to "fix it / duct it", and I don't know if I can tolerate the colors of a TN panel after having IPS for so long. I also have 7970s and would need to resort to workarounds to do the Lightboost setup.
My problem is that I'm getting hung up / leaning towards the 21:9 monitors, but I was looking for some more owner's feedback on them. I've read the Anandtech review on the LG29EA93, and prad.de has a pay-for review in German from last month of the slightly-nicer LG29EB93 which had positive things to say about it (FYI - they also get the low input latency figures that the revised Anandtech review got. And yes I used Google Translate extensively to read that review ).
I've got a 2560x1440 right now but I'm not wed to it (or need it ), as this is just a home computer used for gaming. And that is where my curiosity lies with this wide aspect ratio.
So what have people's gaming experiences been on these new ones? Am I to just expect my current gaming with the top and bottom chopped off? Thanks in advance.
