LG 29UC97C-B

Hey guys! 

 

I was looking to make the switch to ultrawide very very soon and the famous 34UC97 that Linus reviewed caught my eyes. The only problem is the 34in for me is really too big and when I go to LANs we can only bring screen up to 32in wich would mean I couldn't bring it... So there I found it's little brother, the 29UC97! The only problem is that I can't find it anywhere (Not even on LG's website!) other than NCIX and another wierd canadian site that I don't trust... Now, apart from that, is there anything you guys would have to say about this/these screens (Implying that the 34UC97 is exactly the same thing just bigger with a 1440p screen instead of 1080p) may it be bad or good?

 

Here's the link for the screen: http://www.ncix.com/detail/lg-29uc97c-b-29in-curved-ultrawide-97-110178-1204.htm

 

 

*PS*: If anyone has this screen I would like a review, that would be awesome!

29" ultra wide is still great, I knew this was announced back in March, but didn't know it was actually released. 

 

There are a decent amount of 29" ultrawides available now, only a handful are curved, this being one of them. But there are also non curved ones, even from LG, like the LG 29UM67 & the LG 29UB55, they are both great and decently cheap compared to other 29" ultrawides. 

 

The LG 29UM67 even has freesync, although it seems you have a 980, so you wont benefit from that.

 

If you're willing to spend more than there is the Samsung S29E790C which is a really nice curved VA panel, but personally I don't think it's worth the price increase.

I dont know why that store cant write the specs properly.

 

That monitor is a 29" 3440x1440 monitor.  NOT the usual 1080p on that size.

 

 

Nevermind.

 

But i know there is a 29" 3440x1440 monitor out there with a INCREDIBLY similar name.

I really want to buy the screen for the aesthetic (Curved is a big plus) and the ultrawide aspec of it! It fits right into my budget and is a great size for the new desk I will have saturday. I'll think about it a bit while I put the money on the side but if anyone has anything else to say, speak up!!
