A super quick guide to finding the best ultrawide monitor for you. In this video I share some of my thoughts and ideas on finding my perfect ultrawide monitor. It's not intended to be a fully comprehensive guide as there are so many other consideration that change as technology evolves but hopefully it helps narrow down your list of choices.

Is it worth it to get a an ultrawide monitor (21:9)?
For gaming? It depends on whether your favourite game supports 21:9
For video? Sort of but not enough video content in 21:9 yet in my opinion.
For productivity? If you have the cash yes but a dual monitor setup can be just as effective and maybe cheaper

Some of my preferred options based on key features:

34" | Curved | 3440x1440 *
Dell U3415W http://amzn.to/29Xc12g (amazon) | http://bit.ly/2dgdsvF (dell)
