Hello,
I have been out of the loop in terms of monitor tech for quite a while now. The last thing I can remember was that the Acer Predator x34 was just coming out. Of course things have changed and I am currently in the market for a new ultra-wide monitor.
Currently I am using a LG 34UC87C and I am planning on upgrading since it is only 60 Hz. I've been doing some research and I saw that the LG 34GK950F-B is quite new and it is getting good reviews on YouTube etc. However, since it is a FreeSync 2 monitor I am unsure if it will support G-Sync (getting mixed results, YouTube Videos = G-Sync does work with FreeSync 2. Reddit = G-Sync does not work with FreeSync 2). I am assuming that YouTubers are correct, but would like to double check on here just to be safe.
Moreover, if the LG 34GK950F-B is not the best monitor to buy then what is? My current budget for a new ultrawide is $1000 but I can push it to $1500. I've also noticed that the Dell Alienware AW3418DW and ASUS ROG Swift PG349Q is also getting decent reviews too, but they are only at 100 Hz OC to 120 Hz.
I am primary looking for a monitor that has high refresh rate, 3440 x 1440, G-Sync support, IPS, and potentially HDR. I mainly use my monitor for gaming, movies, and work related stuff (coding, etc.)
My current PC specs, if that helps are:
Intel i7 8086k @ 5.0 GHz
Asus ROG z370 Gaming E
32 GB RAM
Nvidia GTX 1080ti
Thank you for the help.
