The title dimensions is what I would get if I arranged my 32" monitors in a straight line.
But having failed miserably at making a hinged setup where I could do the above and also triples at 58^o as I have now, I was left unable to play Wreckfest or Dirt Rally, and a very few others.
Solution, software warping to show on my angled seup what I would see using a flat setup. Easily fits as angled has 180^o FOV and flat is only 120⁰.
Plenty of left over distortion from the high FOV (see pincushion). And even though costing $360 the software still can't get the scaling/warping quite right.
Still better than a single screen.

So where is the link to the monitor?  I want to salivate :)

p.s. little personal rant:
These aspect ratios are doing my head in.  What bonehead thinks hey, let's not do 45:9  (aka 5:1) ratio, put 48 on it, so you can't easily express it.   Fuckers.
