I am thinking of buying a 34" ultrawide monitor for PC gaming and Eve. But will my single Nvdia 780 GTX 3gbs be able to handle Eve, SC, ED, and FPS with no freezing issues or lag? I could upgrade to a single 980ti. |

You should be fine for eve with that resolution more demanding games gonna test your current GPU. The way i read it somewhere is that resolution add 30% more load on gpu than running standard 1080p but not sure where i read that bit of info. |

I had to check up my favourite display resolutions chart, to see where your screen fits in.
Quick googling didn't find me tests with GTX 780 in UWQHD. Since 4K is just slightly bigger, just in a different format and happens to be the general direction in which monitor makers are heading for, I was able to find this forum post.
I also found this info by nVidia, allthough in this case 4K compatible could just mean "able to run a video" which is less stress on the card then running a game with high quality settings.
Try if you can find benchmarks for UWQHD or 4K for your card. Currently, I can only see 2560 x 1440 benchmarks ... that's far below the resolution you want to run. Most 4K reviews I found suggest an SLI system, except for one review picture which gives you only a hint of how you can expect your card to perform compared to various SLI setups.

Ty for the research. Will go SLI then. |

You want something that scores 5,000 or better on this chart, no need to go SLI.

My cards are rated at 5,200 or such, have 3GB video memory, and push 4056x1536 pixels each. EVE is fine even with up to four clients per card.
Help, I can't download EVE

The 780 should work nicely for anything short of a AAA game at max resolution and settings.
A signature :o

Ty everyone. I decided to wait until the ultra-wide tech gets a better refresh rate and the tech improves. I went with dual 144mhz monitors by BenQ on the November Friday sales here in the States. It might not be as big as the ultrawide but the refresh rate is absolutely beautiful. Eve looks amazing. |

Something to be aware of if you ever consider large monitors again: latency.
Many of the large monitors designed for TV or movies are NOT suitable for gameplay as they have HUGE latency (from video processing of a lot of pixels).
Looking at the current state of the technology on the market, maybe in a year things will be better at the current rate vendors are pushing the hardware to the public
FWIW, I work in the live production video industry (real-time processing, as opposed to post-production). My hunt continues for a decent 45 inch diag. 4k 16:9 monitor to replace my two 24 inch 16:10 monitors. |

ah good point. I haven't purchased anything higher than 5ms in the last five years. CRT used to be king for latency, but now you can find TN panels at 2ms all day long, and IPS at 5ms or lower.

living room sized, or desktop monitor. If it's five feet diagonal and meant to sit on the floor then I'd be impressed.
