AOC releases a 34inch 21:9 3440x1440 monitor

[Biased Opinion]

waiting on a dell, asus proart version or for benq to turn up with something similar in their business class line. All these peasant tier glossy monitor parts need to fuck off.

I've been using strictly AOC monitors for 4 or 5 years now and I love them, I'll probably hold off on getting a 21:9 until this comes out.

I had one and it died :'(

they say in August

maybe i'll treat myself for my b-day this year

 

that backlight bleed on LG is making it not buy it and i'm stuck now with 7 years old AOC monitor  

that still works w/o problems!

but the ratio is 16:10 and it's 1680x1050

[Accursed Entity]

Price, I need a price, if this goes for sell at $700-$800 I would be so happy.

that would be nice!

OCUK will have them in stock in September, source : http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18606223

That was also one of the reasons i waited with my 34UM95, but just recieved it today. As models with production date with juni and later, wont have the backlight bleed. But when i opened the box a saw MAY, so i got my fingers crossed.

if backlight bleed does show up te be bad, i will just return it and wait till they got the fixed versions in stock or buy the AOC if that will available by then

It looks amazing, real clean.

Going to connect it now, so i don't know yet how it is. But as soon as i got it connected, i'm gonna play some GRID Autosport. i'll let you know how it is

I read it here : http://www.overclock.net/t/1479950/hardware-info-lg-34um95-21-9-ultrawide-qhd-34-inch-monitor/710#post_22479432

I've been starting to read al the posts from newest to oldest. And it has some good info.

[fishy]

thanks

 

good to hear indeed

 

but i'll believe it when i see it, i don't trust retailers very much

[Falcon]

Looks indeed better than the LG. However, no Hardware LUT kills it. I'll wait for NEC to come along with a model with this panel.

Please be decently priced

yeah but i can only see like 4 only stores having it on preorder yet so those prices may come down eventually when its released. either way im getting one when its around 700ish 

[Nick Paviour]

Wonder if the fact it doesn't have a thunderbolt connector will bring the monitor to a more sensible price point?

[ShadowCaptain]

I just want to say that I love my current 27" 1440p AOC monitor, if its anywhere near as good as my Q2770PQU this will be awesome

[Silent_Xaxal]

YAY FOR COMPETITION!

[GMdavidson]

might be a silly question, but how are these for watching movies and tv shows?

they re identical to a 1440p 27in monitor, you get black bars on the sides...

[Mateyyy]

How can you call a 34inch display "monitor"? ._.

My old TV was 32inch  :lol: ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Because the battle of the standards is still going, we don't know if G-Sync is going mainstream or if AMD's VESA solution (way cheaper) works properly on a desktop monitor (which they are trying to make).

G-Sync will NEVER become a standard because it is proprietary and only works with Nvidia cards. If AMD's Freesync works with both AMD and Nvidia (which it appears it's going to do so since it's integrated into Display port 1.2b) it's not really a battle IMO.

I want this to hurry up and launch D:

Similar to the LG monitor linus reviewed recently here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KnrxNfxRK_4

 

But with what seems to be a higher quality stand and a MUCH more attractive price tag.  It is set to launch at £499 in September.  I couldn't find any information for pricing and availability for North America.

 

I'll be picking one up for sure!  What do you think?  Are you as absolutely excited as I am?

 

Sorry if this is a repost, i tried searching, however, the only things i found were the initial announcement for the monitor and the LG 21:9 monitor.

OK, so its cheaper, better stand, prettier back, more conectivity, usb hub, and more.

 

Bye bye LG 21:9

Vesa mount aswell.

Hopefully this will reduce the price on the 34um95.

That is one sweet looking monitor.
