Ultrawide screen performance (alien.top)

Hello everyone,

I have just received my AMD framework and I would like to buy a 49 inch ultra widescreen .

This is the LG 49WL95C model with a resolution of 5120*1440. I would like to know if a large resolution like that can affects the performance of the computer?

example will photoshop be slower with this screen? Is it smart to reduce the screen resolution?

If anyone has already tried it I would be grateful. :)

No, if you were doing some 3D application like video games or CAD to a lesser extent, it would put load on the graphics side, but the computer wouldn't 'slow down'. Real note on games, this is a really high resolution, I'd avoid all but the lightest games at this native resolution

Have 5120x1440 and a 3080. Will barely pull 30 FPS in heavy AAA games at native (Thanks DLSS), but just watching two full screen videos at the same time no issues at 120 hz. As long as it isn’t 3d or ai workloads you should be fine!
