Hi

This looks to be a super gaming monitor.
Look at the specs, 1ms, and 144 Fps, in a 34" 2560 x 1080 pixels wide screen monitor!

LG 34UC79G-B: 34 Class 21:9 UltraWide® Full HD IPS Curved Gaming Monitor (34” Diagonal) | LG USA

There are no reviews of it yet on Amazon, but I'm going to keep an eye on this, I not going to buy a new monitor until next year anyway, so I have time to wait and see what the bottom line is on it.

I'm guessing that is will work with my Nvidia 3D vision, but I don't know for sure, it is 144 Hz refresh rate like my present 27" 1920 by 1080 monitor.

I would love to have more peripheral vision in all my games.

Yes it is a great monitor but the important question is... What car to use as a background image?
