QUOTE(amirudin920927 @ Jan 13 2016, 10:12 PM) 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. Thanks for your nice user feedback. 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. Update: Didnt notice you did upload your rig setup poc in your previous post. Paiseh This post has been edited by emy_xvidia: Jan 14 2016, 02:04 AM |

QUOTE(richard912 @ May 28 2016, 11:45 PM) I'm waiting to see if anything interesting is revealed/launched during next week's Computex. If nothing, may pull the trigger for X34 or maybe wait for X34A. The latter is just with stand that has swivel feature. I've been waiting to pull the trigger for my first UW monitor as well. Was initially interested with the X34 but the back glossy plastic and the OSD controls turn me off. Then had hope when Asus introduced the PG348Q, but sadly still not officially available in Malaysia. Importing from overseas is a no no since I don't really trust the QC of both Asus and Acer in their monitors. Now waiting for the Acer Z1 series. Obviously a downgrade in reso compared to X34 but hopefully comes with cheaper price. |

QUOTE(richard912 @ May 29 2016, 08:36 AM) My predicament is quite similar to yours ie X34/PG348Q and then Acer announced/previewed their Z1 series. On the X34, am not bothered with the glossy back finish as I nor anyone else won't see it given how my setup is oriented. As for the OSD controls, it's not something I expect to meddle with regularly hence, I should be able to overlook this. Agreed with you as well. It's just that, too many reports on the panel used on X34 being either has backlight bleeding or bad IPS glow. scared of buying it and find out mine has those issues, plus the asking price is rather on steeper side for such issues to exist out of the box.While the Z1 series is an "improved" Z35, thinner bezel and better OSD controls, the 1080p was a put off not to mention the VA panel. As I don't expect to change my monitors as regularly as I would with GPU Just sharing my self thought processes.... Wish Dell or Samsung could just get into the game and produce UW Gsync monitors coz I rather trust these two than Asus and Acer |

QUOTE(richard912 @ May 29 2016, 06:44 PM) Actually, I am secretly hoping nothing new or exciting related to gaming monitors are announced during Computex. This way, I can just pull the trigger for an X34 without much guilt nor remorse Well let's just hope for a further discount then by Acer MY for the Acer X34 this coming raya festive season.. |

QUOTE(richard912 @ May 29 2016, 07:59 PM) They are having an "Offer" now, RM4299 + free Predator Headset. FYI, the headset is actually a Steelseries Siberia 200 Ya I know. It'd be better if they didn't put the headset as a free gift and gave a further RM400-500 reduction from its RM4299 price. That'd be sweeter. |

QUOTE(teng_08 @ May 30 2016, 08:19 AM) I think Dell's working on a new UW G-Sync monitor but could be months before it's announced. Dell and Samsung are rather slow in tapping the gaming monitor market. If Dell were a lil bit more competitive in the gaming monitor market, I'm pretty sure that Asus wouldn't be a market leader like right now. |

QUOTE(richard912 @ May 30 2016, 10:02 PM) Yeah.....the S2716DG is so overpriced for a TN panel. Wow that fixes every flaw that the X34 has. Lel. 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 Joystick control, non-glossy back, curvier. Now let's hope its price tag would be more towards affordability like the improved Z1 over Z35. |

QUOTE(richard912 @ Jun 3 2016, 09:10 AM) Curvier, for closer placement of the monitor to the user.Q4 is months away. Tried YouTube-ing the model for a hands-on experience at Computex, found no result. All are focused on the new 1080. What a shame that this is missed. |

QUOTE(mois @ Sep 1 2016, 11:15 AM) With 144hz, gsync not really important already i think. The difference wont be as big as 60hz-->>144hz. It is important. Unless you can guarantee that your system is able to drive that 144Hz of a display. Gsync on the other hand, drives the monitor to match with what the card produces, hence less tearing. |

QUOTE(mois @ Sep 1 2016, 01:37 PM) 144hz is not default rate? What is the minimum specs to use 144hz? Gsync monitor not cheap. Those who have gsync monitor probably have enough money to buy decent cards. 144Hz is the max refresh rate for the panel. it doesn't mean your system needs to be really capable of achieving 144Hz at all times, does it? Gsync ranges from 30Hz to the max limit your panel supports.If a person buy 24" gsync but use low end card, that guy isnt wise. I dont think that there's anyone out there buying a Gsync monitor without having a proper system, but it doesn't mean that people who have, let's say, GTX1060, cant use a 24" Gsync monitor. |
