Nigh all media is 16:9. What’s this obsession people have with 16:10? Isn’t it inconvenient to have black bars along your videos and pictures?

    Even non-productivity too! I’m a gamer and I find games to be more “fuller” in 16:10, if that makes sense. I mostly play RTSes and A/RPGs, and recently switched from a 32:9 ultrawide to a 16:10 and I find it better, at least for the games I play.

      You can pry my 49" 32:9 monitor from my cold dead hands.

      Seriously though glad you found something that works for you. I could see them being difficult for RTS/ARPGs. I’ve started getting back into racing games because of my 32:9 because being able to use the side mirrors is cool as hell.
