@Grey_Eyed_Elf: That is 2560*1080 right?
Sure is.
I think I was the first person on the forum to have a 21:9, I remember posting pictures of my old 29" Dell before going 4K now back to 21:9 again. Well that said I still have my 4K panel its just sitting along with my NEC 302 at my office.
I doubt I will go away from 21:9 anytime soon. I hear some rumours about a potential 200Hz 3440*1440 monitor coming.
Honestly, I could do with a 5K bonus or at work. I want some serious upgrades to my computer this year and it won't be cheap. Should I get a new GPU once the new lineup from Nvidia launches... And in return wait for a cheaper monitor with the specs I want? Also my CPU isn't up to the task for that kinda framerates.
Sell your old monitor and buy the one that you want, see how your SLI 980 Ti's handle the new monitor (res, refresh rate). If the GPU's don't perform up to your standards then get one of Nvidia's newer cards when they come out.
If you want to save some $$ on a CPU then sell your 6600K and get a used/new 6700K/7700K (you wouldn't need a new mobo) and you would get decent performance gains specially if you're aiming for a high refresh rate monitor. If you want to go to a new platform then just wait for Intel to release Cannon Lake, I believe?
