Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Dell Alienware 34" 120hz 21:9 G-Sync monitor $719.99
I'm loving it so far. I picked up a Amazon Basics arm on cyber monday as well and the combo has worked a treat. Coming from an older LG ultrawide is night and day. It just feels likea better designed product. The button locations and menu make more sense. It seems to skew more yellow/green than...- macguffin

4K vs 21:9 monitors
Aside from the fact that driving 4K for gaming requires a hell of a system, this is the main issue I ran into when choosing a new monitor. To truly enjoy 4K without UI scaling (which to me is a requirement since the majority of the programs I use don't work with UI scaling as of yet) you need a... -

Best Dual Monitor Stand for 2 x 34" Ultra Wides?
That's ridiculous. I love it! I'm quite pleased with my ultra wide, but LG's stand (the UM95 in particular) leaves much to be desired. Ideally I would love a freedom arm, but it's hard for me to justify spending 100 bucks on something that's only a modest improvement over the current... -

Best Dual Monitor Stand for 2 x 34" Ultra Wides?
I just assumed people were using a triple monitor stand, leaving the center mount empty. -

Looking to replace my stands for ASUS VH238H monitors
Monoprice sells some basic, bare bones stands on the cheap. I think they have some with feet rather than clamps as well. -

34" 21:9 UltraWide Displays (3440x1440) - LG UM95/UM65 & Dell U3415W
Got my 34UM95 in on Monday so I've had a few evenings to get used to it. Thanks to the newegg deal I picked it up new for 750. The screen as far as I can tell is about as good as this wide format IPS monitor can get. No BLB or stuck pixels. The only thing I can notice is some IPS glow on the... -

34" 21:9 UltraWide Displays (3440x1440) - LG UM95/UM65 & Dell U3415W
At least they're not 5k, haha. Getting my new 34UM95 in on monday. Hard to argue with $750 for a new unit. -

Advice For An Architectural Visualization Artist
Take my observations with a grain of salt, since I'm not super well versed, but I do spend a lot of time doing 3D work, so I can kind of speak on that. IPS is definitely the way to go for anything that needs color accuracy at the moment. TN panels generally have better contrast and "depth" but... -

Gosh. I re-read my post and it looked right when I posted, but it's completely wrong. You are totally correct. I claim sleep deprivation. =p Still a good deal. -

34" 21:9 UltraWide Displays (3440x1440) - LG UM95/UM65 & Dell U3415W
I had to jump on that. In the process of returning a used one I picked for the same price. Bag lunches for me til the return comes through. FYI for anyone confused about the -P variant like I was. It's the exact same screen as the 94 and 95 models. It's just the commercial version of the unit so... -

That's pretty great! How's the quality of newegg's open box items? I've only bought new from them. -

Back to the Drawing Board.(IPS 27-34" Woes)
Duh, I totally forgot. I primarily use this PC for 3D modeling and visual effects work. So Maya, Photoshop, After Effects are regularly used programs. I do I bit of gaming but nothing super twitch, mainly Battlefield and whatever tickles my fancy, mmo's, Bioware type games. I'm used to IPS lag... -

Back to the Drawing Board.(IPS 27-34" Woes)
So...I'm returning my LG 34um97. I got it from an amazon warehouse deal for about 750. The bezel is mint and theres no dead pixels or scratches. Realistically, the only thing I can guess is an Amazon robot ran into the box and they had to discount it. Unfortunately, that nudge seems to have...
