    The perfect 4K 43” monitor! Soon! Asus XG438Q ROG

    Yeah, same here, I upgraded from a QHD 27" to a 4K 32". I got used to the native 4K several times (though it's tiring for the eyes), but as the screen died (and it took a long time to have it shipped for warranty internationally, then carry it again over in my checked in luggage), I got switched...

    Acer XB321HK vs LG 32UD99

    Philips actually did announce a 32" 4K with 120Hz. https://www.tftcentral.co.uk/blog/philips-momentum-displays-for-console-gaming-558m1ry-328m1r-and-278m1r/

    Acer XB321HK vs LG 32UD99

    The one I got originally had quite some bleed around the edges, but the replacement panel they installed is very good in that regard. I love the monitor. I could see myself replacing it with a 144Hz one perhaps in the far future as I'm not sure if the lower sharpness of the 38" would bother me...

    LG 38GL950G - 37.5" 3840x1600/G-Sync/175Hz

    You could tell him something in lines of how you find this specific screen format and resolution (DPI) optimal for your kind of work, but the killer feature is the 1ms because you feel discomfort from all the blur during text scrolling and window dragging on a typical slow office screen which is...

    Acer XB321HK vs LG 32UD99

    There are some updates regarding the 32" 4K 144Hz. Not in production yet, but SoonTM. https://www.tftcentral.co.uk/blog/au-optronics-showcase-new-65-and-32-mini-led-panels-with-1000-zones-and-144hz-refresh-rate/

    Acer XB321HK vs LG 32UD99

    I didn't say it's imminent, but with the 38" 144Hz and 43" 120 Hz (and 144Hz) monitors becoming available, getting a NEW 4K 60Hz monitor now seems like throwing money away.

    Acer XB321HK vs LG 32UD99

    I have an XB321HK that I got used. The panel actually started having some issues so it got replaced under warranty a year ago. It still has this occasional flickering where one half of the screen would show some green lines for a moment, but I'm not really bothered by that. Perhaps later they...

    38" 3880x1600 gsync display - does it exist?

    I wouldn't hold my breath for a G-Sync 38" IPS panel. They're more costly to make than 34" 1440 (because of the higher vertical), the G-Sync module is expensive and the panel itself seems to be somewhat slower than 34" panels making it less than ideal for a gaming panel. Only now the higher...

    anything better than BenQ 3201 ?

    I have the XB321HK and I'm pretty happy with it (when it works, bought a used one and the panel developed some horizontal lines problem so had to be replaced within warranty period). But, AFAIK, it should be the same panel as BenQ of the OP, just maybe with better optimized electronics for...

    Gsync 4k 144hz HDR monitor prices 'released'

    I guess the HDR backlight makes them so expensive. Any chance of seeing these 144Hz 4K panels (32" for me, thanks) released with standard backlight?

    Do I really need G-sync?

    It's not pointless unless you change your monitor every year or two. Given the option, I'd rather pay somewhat more and have a 144Hz 4K screen for later on, then get stuck with 60 Hz. Of course, the keyword being "somewhat" here; we'll see what the premium will actually be like once those 32" 4K...

    Acer Predator XB321HK ?

    [C/P from another topic as it seems it might be more useful here.] I got my slightly used Acer XB321HK off Ebay and had the same occasional flicker (where either left or right half of the screen would flicker some green lines occasionally), but never any blackouts. I read about these flickers...

    Occasional flicker on the Benq PD3200U (and others w/AUO panels) bad for it? Will it get worse?

    Yeah, I got a slightly used Acer XB321HK off Ebay and had the same occasional flicker (where either left or right half of the screen would flicker some green lines occasionally), but never the blackouts. I read about them beforehand and wasn't really bothered at all. Unfortunately, after a...

    Has the gaming monitor market become stagnant ?

    Well, there's the XB321HK (with G.Sync) or even the BL3201PT (with limited Freesync range) which have a low input lag IIRC. Perhaps not enough people bought 4K monitors so it's still a niche market.

    Ditched 21:9, now what?

    Perhaps the game is not fully compatible so you have to adjust the viewing angle manually.

    Acer Predator x34 or AOC Agon AG352UCG? Other suggestions?

    That does seem pretty excessive. Does it change with an angle? What are the brightness settings? Did you monitor box look brand new or it looked like it was opened before?

    Acer Predator x34 or AOC Agon AG352UCG? Other suggestions?

    I'd appreciate the slightly higher dot pitch with the 35", but getting one only makes sense if it's cheaper IMHO. The Acer X34 for less money is surely the safer choice and a faster performer in games (less blur and lag).

    AOC Agon AG352UCG

    Sorry, my mistake. It says overall latency, rather than input so they mean the panel is kind of slow for gamers from their experience.

    AOC Agon AG352UCG

    A review popped up on prad.de and they claim it has high input lag values (27.9ms). http://www.prad.de/new/monitore/test/2017/test-aoc-ag352ucg.html Kind of surprising given the TFT Central findings.

    Help me replace my U3011?

    Edit: Sorry, I see you're talking about the 27" QHD now, not the upcoming 4K HDR one. Yeah, the loss of size is hard to accept for an "upgrade". The 27" 4K HDR PG27UQ will be pretty expensive IIRC, so there's also a similar Acer 27" 4K HDR TN alternative...

    XB321HK - Alternatives?

    You switched from a QHD 27"? How did you find the text in desktop? Did you have to increase the DPI? Edit: I got one as well. Can't wait to try it out.

    XB321HK - Alternatives?

    Cool. Please report your experience with it. I'm only afraid of the text size in desktop so I guess DPI increase would be a must for me.

    XB321HK - Alternatives?

    I'm eyeing the same thing (32"+ 4K + G-Sync) and there are no alternatives at the moment unfortunately. Though, I might consider the 38" 21:9 screen if somebody makes it with G-Sync.

    3008WFP owner finally looking to upgrade. PG348Q in my cart. Change my mind?

    I hope you're ready to deal with the reduced vertical on the 34" screen compared to your 30". E.g. http://www.displaywars.com/34-inch-21x9-vs-30-inch-16x10 Personally, I'd have either stayed on the 30" or gotten the Acer XB321HK (60Hz, but you're already used to that unlike the smaller vertical).

    ASUS announces Swift PG27UQ 4K IPS 144Hz G-Sync HDR monitor

    So, a 144Hz version of their 4K 32" AHVA screen might be coming as well. I'll wait for that, 4K on 27" is too much IMHO.

    17.3 inch QHD (2560x1440) 120Hz TN G-SYNC 400 NITS

    How is this Alienware's fault? There are no 120 Hz IPS screens yet (or even 17" QHD IPS screens it seems), so you can either live with the TN 120 Hz screen option (which also has G-Sync enabled) or choose the Full HD or 4K 60 Hz IPS screens they offer as alternative options depending on your...

    I want 30" 1600p at 100+Hz

    Oh, sorry, missed those as I glanced through the first post. There's a review at tftcentral and the screen is a bit of a disappointment. Hopefully, Acer or Asus will make a G-Sync version of it, but it's not a given as they seem to choose only the common screen types (e.g. 27" and 34") for...

    It theoretically works with one card. I would wait for some games which actually use these physics features to a useful level (and I don't mean GRAW level of usefulness) before making such bold statements. But I doubt we'll see a major shift in this area before there is some kind of unified...
