Considering getting a new monitor. Right now I have 27" 2560x1440 IPS that's worked pretty good for a few years. I saw a 34" curved 3440x1440 in person and thought it looked really good.
After looking around though, seems like there is a hassle in getting support in some games that I like to play in 21:9. Even black bars on the side would work for me, but not sure this is always possible. It seems like a 4k would not have these same compatibility issues since these games run in 16:9 resolutions such as that one I'm using now.
Is it a safe assumptions that my games that run in 2560x1440 will natively work with 4k since it is also 16:9? Or will I have support issues with either monitor?
Basically still debating between a 32" 4k and a 34" ultra wide.
