I highly recommend a 34'' Ultra wide screen. If you can afford it go for Free Syns/G-Sync.
I have a Dell u3415w (Revision A01) and it's a great monitor, add much to the immersion. It's like a windshield.
Here's my setup.
Powered by GTX970 running at 3440x1440 Ultra settings @ 60 FPS. 21:9 works really great with headtracking.

WOW, Nice, thats the exact Monitor i am looking at No Black Friday deals on this, maybe wait until Cyber Monday, but lowest i can get this for is £526. It looks Absolutely Gorgeous.
Thanks Mr Gr3y and to all the others who have answered my question!
Wasn't sure about "curved" but tbh it's great. Don't want to miss it anymore. Only downside is that it's too wide for single window applications, browser and such. But even for working it's great, just allign two windows each half size and you have like two screens in one. Dell's display manager is a nice tool to rearrange multiple windows.
Though about triple 24'' 16:9 this would mean triple power, more pixels and if you're unlucky some driver issues.
Check the revision of the screen once you have it. Revision A00 could have some light bleed/fps glow issues. This could appear when the screen is starting, doesn't display anything and only when the background is really dark. As you see on the pictures no issues when playing E: D. And it won't get any darker than in space.
But I'm sure you won't get any of these anymore.

I have played Elite in 21:9 for a long while now...it really suits the game and works very well with it:

Hey ant, you running on multiple screens or 1 big boy?
How does a 4k TV compare with IPS Monitor? Interested to know as 4k TV's are dropping quicker than a es draws!
Have you had many people complain about the resolution you now record in?
Used to watch your videos, but as eye's are a strange thing i can't watch with those stupid black lines now on all of your videos.
Read some really good reviews (PC Monitors & TFT Central) about the Philips BDM4065UC 4K 3840x2160 40" 16:9, if you have to space on your desk. It hast a great panel, but it isn't curved.
Since it's 16:9 no issues with "old" games that don't support ultra wide and good to work on. Since it is 40'' you can set resolution and ratio to 21:9 - 3840x1648 with small black space top & bottom, should be equal to native 34'' 21:9.

Full screen!
Here's a great article.

In the end, you may not be able to tell the difference between 1080 and 4K (or 8K) depending on your viewing distance from the screen. Technology has developed to the point where it exceeds the comprehension of the human senses.
