I'm curious though, anyone actually try or owned both xb271HU and x34a. Wondering which actually gives more satisfying gaming experience 165hz or 34" 100hz ultrawide, if money is not issue and you have a juicy rig.

From 60Hz to 100Hz (as in the case of the X34a), there will be very noticeable "smoothness". From 100Hz to 144Hz, the "improvement" will not be too noticeable for "normal" folks. Can't comment about 165Hz though.

In any case, XB271HU is not ultrawidemaster whistling.gif

Haha in my case anything will be an upgrade though, using a dell u2311H with no hdmi port and also ati5870 since 2010. So in short, ultrawide gaming monitor is the dream monitor to aim for?

Feedback from reddit, unless you're FPS hardcore player ( aka CS:GO pro ), 75Hz-100Hz are more than enough even for normal COD/BF player.

Really depends on 'attitude' of game developers. Some sweat.gif developer like Blizzard actually cut Overwatch's 16:9 picture into 21:9 ( with much lesser FOV ) doh.gif and call it a day ( not sure if change now )

Everyone perceives motion fluidity differently. There is no "correct" answer to this.

100hz to 165hz is absolutely noticeable to me. But I've asked many to participate in a "blind test" where I do not tell what the refresh rate is set to and most actually cannot tell the difference between 100hz, 120hz, 144hz and 165hz apart. In fact some actually perceive 100hz to be the most 'natural' refresh rate.

Convention wisdom says that the higher the refresh rate, the better. If money is no object and the rig is capable, why not just get the best? Reality is however; most people have a budget constraint. Getting a 165hz monitor without a rig to push it is pointless and the opposite is true as well. Getting a 1080Ti to play at 1080p60 is equally a waste of money.

ive never owned a >60Hz monitor before, but ive been to exhibitions showing them off. its one hell of an experience, similar like seeing Freesync/GSync in action

if money is no issue, everything is up for grabs depending on what you like. personally, for immersion, i would prefer an UW than higher refresh rates. its just much better for me. but for some, >100Hz is a must since they preferred it much more

Hahaha, even 1080 Ti might not able to reach 144 fps at 1080P for all games.

Depends on the game of course, depends on the settings too. Pro Overwatch players as I'm sure you know play at 144hz with all settings at minimum. Same for CSGO players, same for UT players.

My personal sweetspot is 100-120hz, anything more is not distinguishable enough for me.

On to monitors, am wondering should I change to acer predator xb271hu. Am using LG29UM57 now. I like the ultrawide but in the other hand I really wanna try 144hz and Gsync. Just not sure if getting xb271hu now will be a wise decision or not.  unsure.gif

I don't have the XB271HU but I did used and enjoyed the XB270HU. There IS a difference between 100hz and 144hz, but like what others has mentioned, you really need to be playing specific games on powerful rigs to take advantage of that, such as competitive FPS and racing games.

After using the X34A, I don't think I'll ever go back to 16:9 anymore for that extra 44hz. I say go for the 21:9 1440p monitor. Unless you play a lot of SC2 and Overwatch.

Thanks for the feedback! Not sure my 1070 can power that absolute monster of a monitor. Guess I'll stick to my 29" 60Hz UW a little longer now.

Unless you demand ALL ULTRA setting for all new games, GTX1070 still ok. Even all ultra and you're getting 40-50fps, with G-sync it's still bearable ( at least for me biggrin.gif )
Let's wait 38" 3840x1600 become mainstream cool2.gif
