The impossible ask. The white whale. The mythical monitor.

[ChrisStein]

Why is it impossible to find a COLOR ACCURATE 2k/1440p ~32" wide or but preferably ultrawide monitor with At least 100hz. I would like curved but could definitely live with out. All of this for around $500. 100hz 2k 32in curved is not hard to find. Its the color accuracy is whats killing it. If anyone knows of something close to this please let me know. Im desperate.

The problem is that most 100hz + panels are tailored towards gamers, most of which don't care all that much about color accuracy.

A 1080p 32" monitor would look like ass.

Color accurate monitors, especially if you're looking for something to edit on, are generally for professional use. So, you're not going to find them at lower price points.

It's a mythical monitor because you're simply asking for too much.

He said 1440p.

I dunno how accurate you need them to be, but to me as long as it's IPS it's good enough for me and there's a few of those in the wide and >= 100hz 1440p variety.

Not down to $500 yet, but hey, they're coming down.

 

These are just a bit over priced due to the Gsync 

AW3418DW
X34 Pbmiphzx
PG348Q

 

But this is about $100 less without the gsync. About $730

XG35VQ 

EX3501R (VA)

 

I'm getting a bit desperate as well. Not sure I really want an Asus monitor tho, not when the competition is offering +20hz, Just looking for the Freesync versions now. The benq might be what I go with at $600 even tho it's VA.

 

This looks dodgy

What part of "2k" is 2560x1440?

[ChrisStein]

I could be totally mistaken but isn't 1440k the same as 2k?
