Reddit mentions of AOC Q2963PQ 29-Inch Class IPS LED-Lit 21:9 Aspect Ratio, 2560x1080 Resolution Monitor

Any advice on how to mount my AOC Q2963PQ monitor?

The best one I could find was This one 27in, 144hz, 1ms response time, $260 dollars less if you get one used. But at that price you also could get some 29in ultrawides, they just wouldnt be as good

Here
are some ultrawide examples

Here are some more expensive ones

Here is two options on ultrawides:

OP, would you recommend this monitor? It's one of the ultrawides that I've been looking at online. I was just wondering how long you've had it for and what the performance is like when gaming as well as every day use when multitasking.

Honestly, I'm thinking of getting one of these. What I think I've narrowed my choices down to are:

The monitor I think you have (the LG UM57 25UM57): http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00V8FAWC2/ref=pd_lpo_sbs_dp_ss_3?pf_rd_p=1944687682&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe-1&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=B00BLZAYHC&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=1NVJVCAYCAFWGQVZFN6F

The AOC Q2963PM: http://www.amazon.com/AOC-Q2963PM-29-inch-IPS-Resolution/dp/B00BLZAYHC

The AOC Q2963PQ: http://www.amazon.com/AOC-Q2963PQ-29-Inch-LED-Lit-Monitor/dp/B01AVE7L4W/ref=dp_ob_title_ce

I understand that the last two monitors have four inches on the one that you have, but I'm fine with a somewhat smaller display, as the space I have is limited. The only problem that I could see happening, is me not being able to get used to the vertical height of the display that you have, assuming that it's shorter than the two 23" 1080p displays that I'm currently using.

I don't know.... I may just end up going for one of the AOC monitors..... I've heard amazing things about both of them.

The post:

Sold off my desktop last year because I needed a mobile workstation/gaming setup. I no longer need one. Truth be told, I never needed one, but considering I never move it...no reason to hold on to it.

Total cost of the entire package new (links included to amazon and NewEgg below): $2401 + Shipping charges from NewEgg - I use Amazon Prime, so if I order from there most of the time so I don't pay shipping, but this exact model isn't sold anywhere by NewEgg.

I figure cut the price in half, get a screaming laptop, and a bunch of fantastic peripherals. This is an AMAZING machine, top notch. Just time for me to part ways.

I am willing to accept trades for a desktop, but it must be in mint condition (as my equipment all is), and it must be comparably spec'd.
