Here's my quick review on the Crossover 3412UM.

My goal towards gaming is always graphics-centered and immersion that's why I bought the monitor.

The base is ripped out of the pages of Acer Predator haha! It still looks cool tho. Frames are brushed aluminum and sturdy. Don't expect too much on the fine details of it as there are edges that are uneven but it's no deal breaker. It may be just from the manufacturing. The monitor doesn't swivel however, it can still tilt until 90 degrees maybe? As for the colors, it may use the same panel AHIPS panel of LG. Coming from an LG monitor, the colors are very similar but you have to use and configure the settings according to your preference. One of the best things I like about the monitor is that you can OC it to 95hz with ease! No frame skipping and the frames are seamless when I did the test. Much better performance than my LG monitor. Another thing that I like is that it's cheap! I only paid RM 2,200 minus tax. If you're luck enough it'll be RM 2,400 in total  shocking.gif Awesome Deal!

Comparing it to my LG29UM68p monitor, am I happy, yes. am I satisfied, maybe. Am I impressed, No. The reason for those answers is that I thought jumping from a 2560x1080 will give you HUGE benefits in terms of visuals but it wasn't the case. If you have a keen eye on details, you may spot the difference but for fast paced shooters like Battlefield1 and Doom. It's not so much. The pixel density plays a big part I guess. To make it simple, 3440x1440 is the same as your 29 inch just a bit taller haha! if you have a 34 inch with a 1080p resolution, it looks crap to me. If you are using a 29 inch and you're satisfied with it, keep it and save the money. If you have the cash to spare, spend it wisely. smile.gif If my budget is more flexible I would have taken the Acer XR34C2K but this is a great budget-friendly monitor if you want to save a few hundred bucks. Also get the Pixel Perfect version just so that you'll get a better quality. I think Crossover doesn't have a good QC and they just separate the good ones from the bad and sell with a higher price tag. Well that's better than getting something with defects right? Buy at your own risk smile.gif So far so good smile.gif  thumbup.gif

34um59 looks good with ips panel and 1080p. Curve makes the display weird. Flat is best.

My friend said it is great monitor, best monitor stand he ever used, saturated colour for stock calibration.

For gaming, there are reports that the monitor has flickering issue with amd freesync. He doesn't have a amd card, so no comment on that.

After using large curved monitor, I now think large flat monitor like 32" are weird. Your eyes are noticeably further away from far left/right end, compare to middle of display. But need to maintain correct distance and position laugh.gif else distorted sweat.gif

I have the same dilemma. Z35P is more mouth watering... laugh.gif

Now already August, so I am still wait and see if they will bring in by Sept. I actually PM Acer Malaysia at FB last week. But they just reply standard answer - "Thank you for your enquiry. Please stay tuned on our page for updates."
