3440x1440 monitor/video card for classic

It was on sale for $686.35 plus you got a $100 Visa gift card. Unfortunately sale didn’t last but a few hours or so I believe.

I’d been wanting to upgrade for a few weeks now and was all but decided on the LG 34gk950f-b when funds permitted but when I saw that deal it was too good to pass up. Plus I can give the gift card to my girlfriend to ease the explanation of the sting on our bank account. Plopping down another $400-$500 on a gpu immediately just isn’t something I can pull off unfortunately.

WOW has its limits and throwing high dollar hardware at it will not make it look any better , it can be ran on “ultra” with a core 2 duo and a 750 ti save yer $$

Be careful, once you go ultra-wide you don’t go back. went from triple monitor to one alienware ultrawide. Chrome has a pip addon so you can watch videos and streams while you level.

I’ll have to look into that picture in picture add on that sounds awesome! Thanks for the heads up.

And that’s what I keep hearing is once you’ve experienced ultra wide you’re hooked. I was thinking about maybe getting a monitor arm and positioning my old 27” XF270HUA in the portrait position off to the side for WoWhead, YouTube, discord, Pandora, etc.

if its a 6gb model yeah 60+ fps at 4k classic wow easy. if its a 3gb model i cant say for sure but it will have the compute power but the video memory might make the game hang a few times a minute as it reassigns available memory resources on the fly

That card should be more than enough, assuming the rest of the system is up to par. I run 3 16:10 screens together at 5760x1200 with a gtx 980 ti, and the stress test was very smooth at max settings.

Some probably exist, although they’d be a bit long in the tooth by now! I was already on LCD when Vanilla originally launched, although I went widescreen in mid-2005 and discovered that there were little gargoyles on the ends of the action bar! :grin:

980 ti blows the socks off the 1060, though.

I was more wondering if there was still a manufacturer around, these days. But, yeah, what we’d be likely to find would be less than recent…

I could do fine with a 1GB GTX 460. When it comes to higher res, you need a better CPU. This game is NOT gpu intensive in the least bit. CPU matters most for WoW.

uh yeah i mean, up to a certain point. i can play wow at 60fps 1080p on basically any processor released after 2010. and im talking retail wow.
