I could probably make videos about nothing but monitors at this point. They are so, so important because they are how we experience our content... I used to have a 4k monitor, but it was so large that it was difficult to see what was going on in the games... unless I sat 6 feet away, in which case I was defeating the purpose. A smaller 4k monitor can look crisp, but you have to turn on resolution scaling, which removes the extra desktop real estate you'd be getting...
Then there's 3840x1440 ultrawide, which is a very popular resolution for gaming... but 1440 is a bit too wide for productivity imo. That's where 3840x1600 comes in. The little bit of extra desktop real estate really make all the difference. Watch the video to hear why.

Def agree with this. I rock a 3840x1600 38“inch screen. It's just spot on. A 34“ultrawide really lacked the vertical pixels.. The 38"is just perfect for gaming and productivity.
3840x1600 is more or less 4k for all intents and purposes with much better performance.
The algorithm didn't pick you up but I searched for you.
Totally agree, and it just amazes me that on CES there weren’t any 3840x1600 OLED 240hz been announced with DP 2.1 interface …
This really is the best resolution. I’ve used many and this is the best balance. Unfortunately there aren’t many options. I use the Alienware 38 but I’d love to see OLEDs in this resolution
what games did you feature in this video? some of them ive never seen and they look really interesting
I want a GOOD 3840x1600. So far, we don't have many to pick from. Most have bad local dimming. Most are over priced. We need a Micro-LED version with 144hz or higher with 1000+ dimming zones. OLED looks great, but I don't want to worry about burn in on my monitor. So in the meantime I am using the 32" 4k LG32GQ950. It too has flaws but I will not give up vertical height and go 1440p like on 34" widescreens. it's also not 40-43" so I don't have to run my head to view games.
Soo THE ONE WILL BE - the upcoming LG 39" 5120x2160@240Hz OLED&1300NITS get your money ready for 2025
Commenting for the Algorithm
I think this is the best resolution as well, however, I'm waiting for a great OLED version.
I love my AW3821DW and got it after it released during Black Friday 2020, zero issues 2.5 years later. I agree 100% that it's the perfect size and resolution without needing to deal with 4K res scaling and I'm glad that others like yourself also think the same!
Man I haven’t seen you pop up in my news feed in a long time. Glad to see you are still making content.
Excellent perspective and logic as I just built a new computer and wanted to go above the 32" 16:9 monitor I have. I was looking at 4K first then Ultrawide. Suddenly, I had exactly the same thought that you brought up - I really want some increase in vertical space. So, I started looking at 38" monitors and found your video. My only concern is that older games will not support this resolution, but you seem happy with yours and did a nice job of covering the concerns that I had - time to take the plunge since Dell has this down to $900.
This resolution looks perfect for gaming, surfing and flight-sims, good info. Btw- Love the semi-calming - semi-activating background music which matches your voice perfectly.
It is a rather interesting setup. Seems to be easier on the eyes. Definitely need to reconsider my setup.
Been a fan for years. You need to make way more videos!!!
I totally agree that resolution is absolutely paramount. I have a Korean 4k 40" that Logan reviewed and recommended back in the old days, that's one of my favorites. I'm trying a gaming monitor now, I'll have to consider trying this next.
For like 2 years I considered getting a 38" monitor but kept not pulling the trigger because I couldn't find anywhere that had one on display for me to see IRL.
great video, this is something i frequently find myself going back and forth on, ive had 49 inch oleds and 27 inch 5k monitors, i think what id like to settle on is 4k 42 inch oled and then PUSH IT BACK and get a deeper desk so that i dont get lost in fps but also dont have to use scaling, im glad you agree that sacling in 4k defeats the purpose, i keep saying this too i hope ore people will understand, keep it up logan!
I totally agree with you about
