Just got a LG 29UM68. Anyone having the same model mind to share your color settings? I'm comparing it side by side to my Dell S2340L and pretty disappointed with the LG monitor.

Not sure if it's due to the low resolution 2560 x 1080 on a wide screen or maybe due to the matte screen compared to the dell glossy screen.

The color just look so pale and uninviting.  puke.gif
Edit : Nevermind. Fixed it using ICC profiles. It looks amazing now!

Mind telling me where you manage to buy that model ?.. i've been looking for it for quite some time now

Bought the same model from Gemfive (by ClickAsia) during 11NOV promotion, at RM955.

Using DisplayPort cable, you just need to manually select 75Hz from the display properties in Windows, no need to overclock.

I tried but only have 60Hz option, I need to create customize display stting

Hi guys,

I got an LGUM68 running on a GTX 1070. Anyone knows how to enable 75hz without using freesync?
*
Menu-> Game Adjust ->Freesync just enable it even though it is not for nvidia
Then go to display adapter or nvidia and change native setting to 75hz..that's how i did mine with a gtx1070

Nice! Are you using 29UM68? Does it have frame skips or do you enable adaptive v-sync to cap your resolution to 75hz? Is the 15hz improvement significant?
*
yes I do..try to use DP cable for optimum satisfaction and function
I play simulation games mostly like ETS2, FSX, X Plane etc, I opt for adaptive v-sync and yes there is an improvement when set to 75hz you can check out this for games that are optimised for 21:9

wow.... another KING has arrived.  drool.gif   But too bad "just" 75Hz on Freesync.  If only it has 100Hz or more on G-Sync.  Price is not bad at RM5k if compared to Asus PG348Q or the LG 38" model.

Considering to upgrade my my monitor, but at that price..I will opt for pg348q @ 4099 which is within my budget

I have this Acer Nitro VX0 XV340CK Pbmiipphzx running for more than 2 months, still ok though (finger-crossed). Probably just some isolated caps blown cases?
But to get this kind of specs with any other brand within 2k budget is impossible (for now). I saw mostly good 34" 1440p 144Hz Freesync goes above 4k exclude shipping (I live in EM so the cost is even higher). Unless promo maybe drop to 3xxx but never below 2k, this model is like a dream come true for some and nightmare for some.
Still, a worth while investment if it does not blown on first turn on?

Mine almost 1 year 24/7 on standby mode..no problem. Hopefully it stays that way
