Thanks for the explanation on the scaling. I have a good idea of what it is now smile.gif

I understand that Gsync (embedded chip) and Freesync (free and no chip), allows the monitor to catch up with the GPU. I am not sure how it helps with the FPS. Maybe it compensates in another manner which allows our eyes to cope with it. Our eyes definitely cannot match the frequency of the monitor.

AMD GPU? Is it more expensive than Nvidia if we compare on the same price point?

I hope to play some recent FPS and AAA games like PUBG (which is not optimized) and Witcher 3 etc, and some classic games. I am not a hardcore gamer but I want to have some fun with these games occasionally. So, I have a feeling that whatever-sync may not be that important if the cost is insane.

I think you might have wrong idea for G-sync. Monitor doesnt speed up / catch up with GPU, it sync with GPU.
G-sync makes GPU and monitor run at exact same frame rate. If your graphic card render games at 48fps, send to g-sync monitor, monitor will display at 48Hz.

It doesnt compensate, hence why user will felt smoothness and no stutter or input lag ( there's situation where it will double the frame rate / refresh rate, if fps cant reach minimum 30fps ).

I ended up getting a couple of cheap RGB sync capable LED strips and connected to them to my motherboard and sync everything.

Not easy, you need to do more research.

I use X34 which are lighter ( ~7KG ) so the one you look at or one I use can support ( up to 9KG ) , although time to time will 'nod down' and need to re-tighten. Best if can find one with more 'room' on max weight support. Good luck

Thinking of getting x34p but not sure my 1070m version can support or not. Scare I’ll fry my laptop lol.

Or just get a 34 inch curved with 1080p instead?
*
Better get 1440P ultrawide, than 1080P ultrawide then later regret.
I think 1070m will hover around 50fps, but with g-sync it felt better/smoother biggrin.gif

Got it! Why is the stand soooooo long tho sweat.gif

Btw anyone using X34P? Can share your settings?

& my GTX970 will probably suffer when gaming cry.gif Tho I only play PUBG.

Welcome to UltrawideMasterRace tongue.gif

Good idea to get a solid monitor arm to free up the massive space hijacked by the stand.

I've upgraded from 970 to 1070 ti last year, and you know what, 4 years old rise of the tomb raider run at 40+FPS

Any ideas / links for me to buy the arm?

Sad coz the stand looks so good but it’s taking up too much space.
Mostly low settings only AA is ultra. Only getting 60fps now haha as opposed to 100-120 when I was on 1080p.

I'm using loctek D5, bought from taobao but I did see ebay lazada selling also.
It does the job, just need to screw tight for certain part.

EDIT: below are how it looks, clean setup and freed up space below monitor.

I'm using bekant also, it's deep table ( 80cm ), but stock stand took half of depth sweat.gif and push monitor a bit too front/near my comfortable viewing distance.

some said... 1ms vs 4ms is just marketing gimmick... u cant even feel that.

and.. it is proclaimed by brand itself.... *pls do correct me if i'm wrong. hmm.gif

aside from ips vs va panel, the refresh rate is what most people looking for...

Long time ago read something, these 1ms 4ms 'spec' can't be trust fully as there's different testing method and 'cheating' style ( grey to grey instead of white-black-white )

i had try their setting and that why i found the noticeable changing at overdrive normal and extreme.
maybe i had used to see my old monitor without this feature and if i enable the overdrive setting and playing game, it make me feel like a little bit of pening after half n hour, then i off the overdrive setting to off and continue playing my game for another 1 hour i din feel any pening while playing game.

so should i enable the overdrive setting or should i disable it?? rclxub.gif  rclxub.gif

I have it in Normal ( I think this means off ). As long you have the 100Mhz turned on at monitor and Windows, it's extremely smooth for me.

Ryzen 3700x with 2070s should be fine with x34p on medium-high setting issit?

I suspect 2070 super even high-ultra setting also no issue, if you're comfortable with 60fps on games likes SotTR

Ultrawide monitor are niche product, no price competition.
I think X34P are good, alienware and asus are too expensive ( albeit better quality )

If you're comfortable with the price then ok la.
Perhaps this will help you, me and most other IINM bought X34a around 4.3k few years back, where alienware and asus are 5k above ohmy.gif
