yeah bro! I showed the receipt to people around and they looked at me with pity I guess LEDs or any panels are subject to 30% tax. Felt that it was a robbery on broad daylight.

yeah bro. felt like I wanted to cry when they handed the receipt to me.

In fairness to the agents, I saw a Tariff with 30% tax for LED online. I should have known?!?!?! However, other computer parts such as Videocards, Processors, etc, they only charge 6% GST. I checked it as well. It's probably a discretion of the Customs agent. There are forumers in LYN who got only 6% GST. Guess I ain't lucky huh? Guess i'm the guinea pig for all those people who are planning to buy a monitor outside MY. To know more about the Tariff, you can click here.

X34a is the best in the market now until the Z35p and the ultrawide with HDR is available in MY.

VA to IPS or vice versa is more of a preference. Some like deep blacks/contrast of the VA but personally for me, IPS has better colors. PG348Q is damn expensive! So X34a is better value in my opinion and performance I guess is similar or of little difference. I heard that Z35 will only be available 4th Quarter 2017 in the ASEAN region. Saw it in Acer Singapore's FB page.

Btw, I forgot to post the korean monitor that I just purchased. So far so good. Even if was ripped off 800 bucks, it felt a little bit better haha

From ebay brother! Pretty cheap around rm2,023. Taxes not included. You can declare it lower so you can save money. Paid rm800 for taxes tho. I will Under-declare stuff next time. The seller can do that for you. So much for being a law abiding citizen

Btw, I got the item 6 days including weekend. If we count out the weekend, it'll be 4 days! Pretty FAST!

Heard great reviews about a Z35p. I know someone who has X34a, PG348Q and Z35p. The best of course is the latter. He sold the Asus hehe! Anyways, I think the 120hz OC matters. Enthusiasts can max it all out with their setup.

Crossover 3412um. It's probably an Acer reject haha! So far so good. Haven't calibrated it yet tho.

Lesson learned bro should have taken from you instead.I thought you only have Microboard. Microboard bit expensive compared to Crossover 3412UM.

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 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. 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 So far so good

wait for Z35p since it has better refresh rate. The colors on it despite having a VA panel is actually quite impressive based from reviews and user reviews I read it reddit. Also, it's $200 cheaper than X34a so I guess you know what to buy from the two

If I have the money, I'll buy it. 100hz with G-sync? SOLD

Congrats brotherman! How much you got it for?

Finally! Congrats with your new toy! What card are you using? Share some pics so you can poison me hahaha

Your 1070 is perfect for the X34's resolution with G sync! Have fun!

How much? Post pics once you get it

Congrats on your purchase! very good price too! cheaper than the x34a! For the most part, it is more expensive than mot monitors I know. Lucky guy

Congrats on your ascension! Great review as well!

3440x1440 resolution, 100hz, 2MS, VA panel, Curved? Yes please!
