QUOTE(emy_xvidia @ Jan 13 2016, 01:42 AM) Nice! How much you got it for? Any issues on the QC itself, backlight bleeding, IPS glow etc.? Got it for RM4480.. So far so good.. Very smooth with the 100Hz + G-Sync.. I can easily OC'ed to 100Hz w/o any problems at all. Try with many games such as GTA5 (not enough memory 3GB VRAM), Bf4, N4S Rivals, Watch Dogs n etc.. No problems at all. About the backlight bleeding, actually there is very little backlight bleeding and i'm sure u also didn't notice. The major problems is the IPS Glow, but for me its not a big problem coz u will distract with it only if u play games with dark background. Its not the monitor problem at all, actually its normal for IPS panel. Its cause bcoz of ur POV and ofcoz the monitor is too big. If u move ur head straight to the side of the monitor, there is no IPS Glow.  Btw, I'm not sure about others reviewers coz I already watched and read most of them. Some I found that they said, if got the version after Nov 2015, then u got no problems. Only version before that got problems with the 100Hz OC due to unstable firmware.

QUOTE(faidz85 @ Jan 15 2016, 10:05 AM) Hi all, It's oke, but if me, I will skip 1080p.. better go for 1440p Is this monitor good? http://www.lelong.com.my/lg-monitor-led-ip...7-01-Sale-I.htm I can't afford monitors with freesync and my GPU is only R9 390...so can't go higher reso. Thanks. R9 390 got enuf 'power' to run 1440p and with 8GB VRAM good enuf even to run with my X34.. So if u ask me, I would say, why 1080p why don't u try 1440p.. Once tried never turn back haha.. Trust me. Last time I use Dell U2713HM, then I go for X34 coz I want a 'wide' monitor so that I can watch movies w/o black border and my Cities of Skyline would be easy to monitor.  Btw, what is ur current monitor? |

QUOTE(faidz85 @ Jan 15 2016, 09:55 PM) Viewsonic VX2370S. What you suggested was too expensive...I can't justify spending that much. Sorry bro  From 23" to 29" should be good also. May I know ur budget? QUOTE(X_F@cT0R @ Jan 15 2016, 10:16 PM) so there's no black border at all when you watching movies? how about their motion flow means does it gave you a soap opera effect since this monitor using native 100hz? Yup, no. U can take a look at my previous post that I snap my monitor while watching Transformers. Motion flow? Means? For movies, normally will be capped around 24 or 25 fps so that its will 'look like a movie'. There also got some movies with 60fps version, but for me its too smooth, i didn't like it it.. |

QUOTE(antaras @ Mar 2 2016, 10:59 AM) Am coming from a single AOC i2369v (23" 1080p ips). So, for a smoother transition I went for LG 29um57 (29" 2560 x 1080p ips). Gaming with this sucker is just awesome! Congrats!

QUOTE(richard912 @ Apr 11 2016, 12:08 PM) With your dual 980ti in SLI, I'm sure it will be a beast, running everything in ultra setting. I'm still on a humble 970, waiting for the xx80 to be launched. Maybe I should just go for a 27" non-curve for the time being. The XB271HU comes to mind Yeah.. SLI 980ti also struggle for this monster X34 coz it's 1440p ultrawide (for The Division).. No regret at all coz it's superb for gaming n also watching movies... |

QUOTE(richard912 @ Apr 12 2016, 08:54 AM) And that's one of the other major consideration for holding back. With my current GTX970, it will definitely struggle to drive the 4k resolution in gaming. My options: If me I would for the 3rd.. hehehehe 1. Invest in a GTX980ti - But with the impending release and availability of Pascal after July, may be good to be patient, or 2. Invest in a 27" 2560 x 1440 monitor instead ala XB271HU. But my mind tells me it's a wiser choice to shell out RM1k more for a 34" instead, or 3. Just hold on to existing S2440L/GTX970 setup for at least 6 months and sekaligus build a new monster rig when Pascal becomes available |

QUOTE(richard912 @ May 30 2016, 10:02 PM) Yeah.....the S2716DG is so overpriced for a TN panel. ohhh nooo,,, can swivel.. hope can just buy new stand for my X34.. On a different note, Asus and ROG have conducted their Computex 2016 press conferences with ROG showcasinga 24" 165hz monitor. Tomorrow, Computex officially starts. Waiting on Acer/Predator's announcements EDIT : Seems Acer will be previewing X34P, with native 100hz. Current X34 is native 60Hz, OC to 100Hz. FYI, There's also an X34A already in the market (not Malaysia unfortunately). Diff of X34 and X34A is the stand whereby the latter has swivel function. Linustechtip |

QUOTE(richard912 @ Jun 2 2016, 09:02 AM) I'm sure it can be purchased by way of a special order. Price though, may not be "ideal". Alternatively, you could consider an Ergotron MX arm or similar products. Ohhh yeah, thanks bro for remind me the stand options.. I don't feel much pain coz I bought it early hahahaha! It will be an interesting year for ultrawide monitors. Personally, I will go for an IPS and no less. TN is passe and in between, AMVA panels which sadly, do not produce the vibrant color of IPS panels. AOC introduced their ARGON series recently and the AOC AG352UCG looks interesting from specs standpoint. Alas, VA panel. Let's see how the X34 prices get affected over the coming months. Considering a month or so ago at an IT Fair in KL, the X34 with RRP of RM4599, could be purchased for RM4399 and more recently, it dropped to RM4299 with a free headset.... (Amir, don't feel the pain. You have afterall been enjoying your purchase while we who have not, have painful backsides sitting on the fence, waiting to pull the trigger) The performance also never ever disappointed me (#poison).. I got 1st batch that arrived Malaysia and the last unit from AllIT.. Hati ni tak terasa sakit sb sgt berpuas hati dgn monitor tu.. the best! Gaming superb! Movies best... I can guarantee if u buy it, u never regret n never revert back to normal monitor.. hahahaha |

QUOTE(richard912 @ Jun 2 2016, 10:24 AM) Walao!! Stronk poison ni!! Gogogo! Yes, I've already made up my mind, 1440p curved wide IPS with G-sync is the target.  1440p, ultrawide curved, 100Hz, G-Sync, IPS panel.. Last time my target was 1440p ultrawide + Gsync + IPS, so X34 launched i terus sapu lah... haha. Btw, GSync really syok wooo haha |
