For anyone deciding between a 38" ultrawide and a 34" ultrawide, I can recommend going for the 38". I have been using HP's equivalent to this model (Z38c) since December and it's glorious. Prior to that I had a 34" ultrawide on loan, but I found it to be lacking in height - it sort of becomes a wide-version 24" monitor, whereas the 38" is the same height as my 27" monitor, but a heck of a lot wider.

SmithyNZA 34" WQHD has the same pixel density as a 27" QHD. Since WQHD and QHD has the same vertical resolution, the height of both 34" ultrawide and 27" standard 16:9 monitor is the same.

FaceMcBashyYou're absolutely correct. It just *feels* a lot shorter than the 27" QHD, I guess because of proportions. My work setup is a 27" QHD (HP Dreamcolor) and a 38" ultrawide side-by-side, and those two feel like a better pairing than when I used the 27" with the 34" ultrawide. A quick look at the 38" (WQHD+) has it at about 3cm taller than the 27".

SmithyNZI would want to get a monitor of this size but I wanted higher dpi. I want to use pbp mode to display output from two PC or split a single ultrawide into two virtual monitor. does the ultrawide you use allow pbp at the native resolution that takes up the half screen? it doesn't look possible on the Acer 38 ultrawide.
