  • You are not going to find another IPS monitor with 144Hz, Curved, in an Ultrawide format for $700
Style: 34" Curved WFHD 144HZ and FreeSync
Ok so here is a break down on this monitor: ◙ 34" Ultrawide ◙ Curved ◙ 2560 x 1080 Resolution ◙ 144Hz ◙ IPS Panel ◙ $700 Right off the bat, I can tell you that you are not going to find another IPS monitor with 144Hz, in an Ultrawide format for $700. Not gonna happen. At least not yet anyways. I have searched and searched, comparing those with truer color, 4K resolutions, and smaller Ultrawides and this one monitor is the best of all - to an extent. Allow me to elaborate. If you are not a gamer, and you are seeking something for productivity and content creation - this is not the monitor for you. There are better ultrawides that offer higher golor gamuts, higher pixels, and better contrast ratios than this one in the same price range. Content creation requires truer color and higher clarity. Could you still do it on this monitor? Yes. But I would only recommend it for those who are avid gamers first, content creators second. Now if you are a gamer, this will really suit your needs - you get all the advantages of a TN panel, with the added benefits of an IPS. For those of you unaware of the panel types, IPS (In-Plane Switching) is, in a general sense, the better color reproducing panel offering better viewing angles but lacks high refresh rates and low response times. A TN (Twisted Nematic) offers much higher refresh rates and lower response times, but sub-par color quality and even worse viewing angles. To achieve both on an IPS panel is pretty awesome for a gamer - we do not like to sacrifice color quality or performance - although that just might be me. In any case, this monitor has been smooth with very minimal ghosting (you'd really have to pay attention), and I absolutely love the refresh rate. I actually tried overclocking, and got to 155Hz - although anything over 144Hz will distort your colors and response rate so I do not recommend it. But besides that, what are the downsides? The three biggest issues I have faced with this monitor are these: 1) The resolution, 2) Brightness,and 3) The Curve. Every ultrawide extends the resolution sideways, rather than proportionally. This mean you get more pixels off to the sides, which is not a big deal with anything 29" or under. However, on a 34", you notice a lack of color - sort of like a "washed out" feel. This is because the resolution is being stretched out but no additional pixels are being added. In order to fix this, more pixels would need to be added by increasing the resolution size. You can technically create this resolution in the Nvidia Control Panel (If you are using an Nvidia based graphics card), but it is not the monitor's native resolution so you will only be creating a "virtual" resolution making it too dull and noticeably darker images. Now a natively higher resolution on this monitor would mean that you could not have 144Hz. Or rather, you would not be able to run games at 144Hz. The amount of graphics power needed will increase significantly with a resolution higher than 2560 x 1080. A single 980ti can handle 100+ FPS (on a 100Hz monitor) with a 2K resolution (2560 x 1080 is considered 2K, although not true 2K). On a 4K resolution, frames will drop to about 40 FPS. A dual 980ti setup might get you back up to 80 FPS, but you are short from your original 100 FPS. For some that is justifiable, preferring pixels over FPS. With this monitor however, the lower resolution maximizes your graphics power to achieve those 144Hz (144 FPS) easily. For a gamer, this is fantastic. Especially if we just can't justify spending $1,000+ for a monitor that offers a higher resolution but at only 100Hz that presumably can only be achieved with a dual video card setup. Now what really bugs me is the brightness. It is too low, and sometimes bothersome. This is mostly a preference as I have a very well it room - but in darkness the brightness is adequate. Worst case scenario, turn of the black stabilizer and you'll get a bit more brightness. In this regard, VA panels would achiever higher brightness than an IPS panel, just fyi. The curve. is. not. enough. This is solely me, I'm sure. I previously had a smaller LG monitor that had a more noticable curve, I expected a bigger curve on this one, but was disappointed. Would i switch it for another one with a bigger curve? No. Unless it had 144Hz as well. Seriously, this is the only Ultrawide i could find with these specs. The only other monitor I might consider switching this for is the Asus ROG Swift PG348Q. It is the only other monitor that could come close to these same specs while offering a bigger resolution, but with the price on the Asus - I could afford two of this LG monitors. Just saying. :). In summary, (man what a review), I am a gamer first, so my need for high refresh rates is important. I would definitely recommend this for gamers. Great specs all around, the resolution does not affect the quality or feel (unless you are a die hard 4K fan). But something had to be compromised for the 144Hz. And all for $700 (or under if you are lucky enough to find that deal). EDIT: So I overlooked the response rate and another user brought it to my attention. The true response rate is 14ms / 5ms GTG (as listed on LG's site) and the 1ms refers to motion blur reduction. While this may not be ideal, it does not change the performance of the monitor. :). ... show more

  • Great Value and features for a superwide
Style: 34" Curved WFHD 144HZ and FreeSync
Great value for a great monitor. First off, my review may be a bit skewed, because I'm coming from an older 26" IPS LCD monitor that had a resolution of 1920x1200 that I purchased maybe 10 years ago. For me, the best thing about that panel was the large view angles and better color reproduction than all of the TN-panel monitors that were available at the time. So when I was looking to upgrade, I wanted another IPS screen, but I also wanted 144 hz refresh rate for smoother gaming and less input lag. After going back and forth on a few ultra wide-screen models, I picked this one because of the features and the price - I got a smoking deal when it dropped to $499 for 2 days. At that price, there isn't anything else out there that is even close to this. In a nutshell, here are the things that impressed me: Size: 21:9 takes gaming to a whole new level. you get a much more immersive experience. Also, HUD elements are pushed out to the sides, and are not obstructing the view of the game. Photo and Video Editing takes on a whole new dimension. There is just so much more workspace. You can see the whole image on the screen and still have room for the tool bars on the sides without them getting in the way. Your video timeline is actually usable at decent zoom levels without having to turn off any other panels. For basic use, I usually have my browser taking up 2/3 of the screen and my audio player/chat/email/etc on the other 1/3rd of the screen. Refresh Rate: 144 hz is the real deal. Even 120 hz feels amazing compared to 60hz. I was really surprised how smooth mouse movement feels on 120/144 hz. The difference between 60 and 120 is amazing. Stepping up from 120 to 144hz isn't nearly as dramatic, but it's still noticeable. Games feel so much better at the higher refresh rates, and everything else looks and feels much smoother than 60hz. Color Reproduction Coming from an IPS LED, I expected to have at least as good color reproduction on this. What I wasn't expecting was that moving from an old LCD panel with traditional backlighting to an LED backlit panel would make a huge difference in contrast levels and color brightness. My old IPS screen looks washed out compared to this. Blacks are super black and colors have more depth and saturation than what I was expecting. I was watching a youtube video in 16:9, so I had the black borders on the sides. At the end of the video, the film went entirely black except for the product logo in the center of the screen. I could not see where the 16:9 part of the video ended and the black bars on the sides began. everything was completely black, unlike the LCD panels I've had where pitch black comes out as dark gray. Features and design The monitor has a really clean design with a really thin frame. Only a small LG logo in the bottom center, and no annoying lights or visible buttons. The single control button also a 4 way joystick on the bottom of the panel. pressing it activates the OSD, and you use the joystick to navigate the menu system, which is very easy to figure out. You can also install LG's OnScreen Control software, which opens up more options for screen splitting and switching profiles that's faster and easier to use than the joystick and OSD. The back of the panel has a standard 100x100mm VESA mount pattern, which I am using instead of the included stand. The frame makes this monitor appear nearly bezel-less, but the actual part of the screen that lights up doesn't go all the way to the edge. there is maybe 10-12mm of space, but it still looks very nice. Finally, I know some people are turned off by the 2560x1080 resolution. For me, it works great. Windows does a lousy job scaling, so if you have a super hi-rez screen, a lot of apps and UI elements have tiny text, and can be straining on people with older eyes, like me. Also, I run a single 1070, and I'm still able to get very good frame rates at this resolution (80+ in BF1 on ultra), which works for me. If I got a 1440p or 2160p screen, I'd need to spend at least $400 for another video card to be able to push that many pixels. But you'll need to make that decision for yourself. ... show more
