F1 2021 and ultrawide monitors

ArifSyed1 · Jan 24, 2022

Hi,
does a 34inch ultrawide (21:9) show more picture than a 16:9 monitor or do they show the same. The 16:9 picture is more compressed and the 21:9 stretched. From what I understand the game is designed for 16:9 and 1080p ( I think), so I assume that when using a 21:9 I see the same content just spread over 34 inches... is my understanding correct. Likewise for super ultrawide (49 inches).

What I'm really trying to understand is what drives the final image content on the monitor... is it the game design, the xbox itself or the monitor, how do i see more of the track without zoom out by changing the FOV.

Thanks

:)

Hey ArifSyed1, how are you today? Hope you're well.

It depends on the game you want to play. You need to check which resolutions and image format the game support.

For a game developed for 16:9 ratio alone, 1080p, even if your monitor aspect ratio was 21:9 it will not grant you that extra peripherical view.

But a lot of games to offer that aspect ratio.

For some reason I don’t like Ultrawide monitors.

It's best to wait for the game to be completely installed as in most games, there are some add ons that needs to be installed first so you can play the game.

That might be a glitch. Yes you might want to wait for the whole download to finish!

When all monitors were standard, the new wide monitor was ridiculous.

Working in ultrawide monitors was odd at first, soon it'll be new normal, I assume.
