Which do you prefer? A triple monitor setup? Or one single 32:9 ultrawide monitor? (lemmy.world)

I have a triple monitor setup right now, but am thinking of trying a single ultrawide monitor. What is your preference?

I do game, but I do not always game on all the screen. It depends on the game and the focus I want.

For example, e-sport, I use 2/3 of screen to game, 1/3 of screen for browsing and discord.

For solo gaming or a game needing focus, I play fullscreen.

league of legends works really well in 32:9 ! But I use it in 21:9 (2/3 of my screen), which already is an ultrawide ratio.

Civ 6, Baldur's gate 3, witcher 3, work well in 32:9 (using the full screen). No worries here. Humankind too.

For some, there are adaptations but it works too. Skyrim or fallout for example. There is a software named "flawless widescreen" ; it improves the experience for initially poorly compatible games.

I do use a software for windows layouts with macros. Meaning I can switch the disposition of my browser, explorer, discord, signal, pdf or anything and my games depending on what I want to do. And that, is really enjoyable.
