Dear Santa

Freesync, 144Hz, and 1440p 1080p Ultrawide 34"? 34UC79G is going to be my next monitor! DOA for me

Freesync, 144Hz, and 1440p Ultrawide 34"? 34UC79G is going to be my next monitor!

Rumors I saw a few days ago were saying it was only 144hz at 2560x1080, at 3440x1440 it is 45-75hz

Why the f*** is one of the major selling point an usb-c connector?

Dear monitor makers: start making dp1.3/1.4 displays.

Looks like 1080p variant @ 144hz.

If not 100Hz+, no buying it for me. I already get 75Hz on my 34" Ultrawide. The Samsung *VA-based panel they will be releasing at a suggested 100Hz+ is another option, but I'm going to wait for reviews first.

Interesting. I love the ultrawide format, I just want some sweet high dpi action. Where's my 8192x3510?

 

[Squeetard]

Still holding out for affordable OLED.

LG's site says only 2560x1080. Kind of a given when the price is only $700 when the current 1440p 60hz models are $1000.

No OLED? No thanks...

Patience. The 8K glory horse is riding in soon.

Now to wait until sometime in Q2 for vega 11 to be around that can actually run it.

Except it is not 1440p but 2560x1080.

Doubt it. As was said above, we haven't even gotten DP1.3./1.4 on any of the very few 4K monitors that are out. This market is a joke for gamers who are not caught up in that ultra wide hype.

 

[Puffnstuff]

Well at least the 38" model is 3840x1600.
