What project is this?  If you want to run one big application such as a game across it then they are great but for general use you would probably be better off with two separate monitors.  For example if you were to want to watch a video in full screen on an ultrawide you would need to fill the whole screen (and have black bars at either side) whereas with two monitors you can make it full screen on one  while doing other stuff on the other.  Just something to bear in mind with them.
