I’m trying to decide between a high-resolution VA ultrawide and a 3440x1440 OLED ultrawide.

My PC is a Ryzen 7 9800X3D, RTX 5070 12GB and 32GB RAM.

The OLED option is easier to run on my GPU and has better contrast/image quality. The VA option has no burn-in risk, but the higher resolution would be much harder for my RTX 5070.

My biggest concern is WoW Classic. I play it a lot and expect to keep playing it for years. The UI has many static elements like action bars, minimap, chat, unit frames and raid frames.

I also play Forza Horizon 6, ETS2/ATS and Diablo 4, where ultrawide would be great.

So my main question is: for someone who plays a lot of WoW Classic over several years, is OLED burn-in a real concern, or is it mostly overblown with modern OLED monitors?

Hey everyone, thinking about upgrading my monitor and want some honest input before buying.

I'm running a Ryzen 7 9800X3D, RTX 5070 12GB and 32GB DDR5. Currently on a Samsung Odyssey G7 32" 1440p. The monitor I'm looking at is the Samsung Odyssey G7 40" S40FG75 at 5120x2160 180Hz.

My games are Forza Horizon 6, Euro Truck Simulator 2, ATS, WoW Classic and Diablo 4.

A few things I'm wondering about. First, I'm happy with my current image quality – will DLSS Quality at 5120x2160 actually look worse than native 1440p today, or is it true that the internal render resolution ends up higher anyway? Second, I've heard ultrawide is amazing for truck sims, can anyone confirm from experience? And third, is the 5070 non-Ti realistically enough for this panel or will I regret not waiting for something stronger?

Not a competitive FPS player at all, immersion and image quality matter more to me than raw fps.

Thanks in advance, appreciate real answers over hype.
