Hey guys! So I just signed up to this site after reading this entire thread practically lol so I've had my eyes on the acer x34 for months and months and I've been trying to find somewhere to preorder or order it for the last month pretty much non stop.
My current set up is the Acer XB280HK 4k Gsync monitor.. and to be honest the monitor is perfect. I am aware of acers poor quality control, so I guess I just got lucky. I've been gaming with this monitor for a little over 2 months now and it's been really great.. but I was a console gamer my whole life up until a little over a year and I was always used to gaming on big screens. My current console setup is with a samsung 75 inch lol... so that's really the only thing that has bothered me about my monitor.
When I saw the 34 inch ultra wide curved and saw it was 100hz I thought I died and went to heaven lol... but now I've read on the last few pages some really bad QC which is really unfortunate.
I don't think it has deterred me completely though.. as I said my current acer monitor came in perfect condition. No light bleed, no dead pixels etc.
I run SLI titanX Hybrids in my pc clocked at 1450MHz and literally the only game that I haven't been able to completely max out at 4k/60fps has been the witcher. I turn AA off in it and then I get between 60-52 fps. All others (dying light,mgs5,mad max,shadow of mordor,battlefield,scholar of the first sin,crysis 3,ac unity,project cars etc) I can keep the 60 fps. Which is another reason I was excited for this... it's actually less pixels so I was excited to be able to get the use out of that 100hz.
I'm in canada and would be buying from newegg most likely..so I guess if I end up with a crappy one I could always RMA until I hit the lottery lol.
