Did you bought the acer? If yes can I know what is the review? I have similar thought as you even the similar shop.. Did you went to purchase in physical shop? I not sure if physical shop price is same as in Shopee

Hi Guys, Just get my Acer 34 inch, I not sure how to make it 2k resolution.
I saw the specification as below
Max Resolution: 3440 x 1440 (UWQHD); Refresh Rate: 144Hz

I connect this through the free cable 2k-4k high speed cable hdmi.
I went to resolution able to get is 2560 x 1080.
How shall i troubleshoot it?

Is it due to laptop problem? My laptop graphic is UHD 620 and MX150.

I think HDMI is fine, i tried using my alternate laptop with same cable it able to get 3440 x 1440.
Maybe my laptop need some tweaking or it don't support.

When i custom it with that resolution it give me error "The custom resolution exceed the maximum bandwidth capacity".
I tried 2560 x 1440 30hz also failed. Maybe i try to check if i able to force my MX150 GPU or not.
I run game which should auto use mx150 but max i get 2560 x 1080.

Edit : After updated all the driver nvdia and also intel. Nvdia seems doesnt do much, from version 4xx to 5xx.
Intel updated the latest one from 2x to 3x. Use the intel command centre able to add custom resolution.
2560 x 1440 give me a weird non full screen - side left and right black bar. Do you guys do customize or strech?
3440 x 1440 the highest hz is 44hz. - Can add 30 40 44 but when choose 40 or 44 it will mention "error occured" Something went wrong applying settings. Pelase try again.
Now i using this, but the text looks abit blury compared to 2560 x 1080. Tried to scale 125% better a little but still 1080 give better(cant 4 screen tho)
Aside when we watch youtube / movie kodi etc is it normal there is black bar due to aspect ratio?

OK I think i get what you mean.
What mean by native resolution? - its depend on the monitor screen size and resolution support right? - when i put 3440 x 1440 30hz some area more noticeable blur such as google chrome header(the tab) word.
Ya, waiting for next gen budget i5 to build 1 pc.
What third party player you use? when watching YT or other movie it feels a bit weird as not full screen. only when i search YT21:9 i able to watch some nice like avatar trailer.

I just check my laptop spec which is HDMI 1.4b, now i know why i only can put max 3440 x 1440 30hz, and now the pc recommended is 2560 x 1080.

Maybe need some time to adapt 1440..

Does this look normal for you?

using 3440 x 1440. my company laptop support hdmi2 and its quite nice.
However my old laptop using it on 30 hz, i guess this hz matter perhaps. The text i get in company laptop are more clearer compared my own laptop.
Opening pdf and excel etc on this native resolution is awesome... Too bad need wait for i5 launching to get my rig to enjoy this..

You test all option? Haha I haven't test.. When I bought I just turn off the light and see if got dead pixel or not..
But as usual got some light but not light bleed.. Some small inconsistance brighter area in edge of the monitor.. Guess it's normal..

BTW talking about distance I feel I am too close with monitor like 40 50cm for 34 curve..
60cm is quite comfort but my desk it too short in depth, no place to put my keyboard..

Thinking to buy a vesa mount.. My monitor weight less than 4kg without stand and 6kg with stand.. In market should I buy any vesa bracket mount as long it's support more than 4kg right?

I saw quite alot of mount it written up to 27 inch.. I not sure if this a restriction? I saw comment review section got one guy said can't fit 32 inch but I not sure what his reason or problem.
Cause my understanding as long our monitor weight is lesser than their product support eg they support 9kg and my monitor less than that.. Their product 75 - 100mm.. And mine its 100mm then it should be good to go rite? Do share if u guys bought any vesa mount for my similar case.. I find some brand like NB f80 or most of those bracket similar design and price around 70 80 bucks..

Yes I know about that. Haha my table abit sagging now and surveying table top currently.
Another option I buy the wall mount like mount TV but it's not so flexing like pc arm.

Anyone using mind to share experience and how much you guys bought?

Saw a few like NB brand or something all price around 80.. Some review box saw it write 22 to 27 inch.. I holding my horse currently, not sure if it able to mount my 34 inch..

thanks.. Will have a look... What is the Eva pad? Name of steel plate is it?

The original H100 seems better than F80 right? As it able to adjust the high with different structure.
Hmm i think i might not need the plate or i just find some extra similar item in my house to act as the plate, cause i getting new table top with 25mm thick.
I saw below is the cheapest cost over 110. The item FP1 add on we dont need it if our monitor have vesa support right?

You have F80? I bought F80 as i feel not going to spend so much.
Ya after reading i think the possibility of F80 cant rotate.
I don't really rotate my screen and i think i wont move it as well. I just want to save space, as the original stand i think eat up over 20cm of space.
i get F80 around 70ish inclusive delivery. Lazada now already in new year promo if not mistaken.
From my reading my screen 34 inch meaning around 80cm+ and the F80 i think height will be 5x cm - 60 cm.. once i get i will try and see if i able to rotate, but i dont really do that haha
