So i currently have a 27" asus rog g-sync monitor  with 2560x1440 rez but id love to go bigger. its currently a 144hz monitor and id hate to go back to 60hz. So i have an issue here...... The Acer Predator Z35 is a 200hz G-Sync 35" curved monitor. Just saying that makes me drool. BUT it is only 2560x1080 rez. The Acer Predator x34 is a 60Hz G-sync 34" curved monitor BUT is 3440x1440 rez. Why cant Acer just release a 200hx 35" 3440x1440 curved monitor so i get the best of both worlds? lol

 

The question is.... which should i buy?

X34 or maybe the new Asus one. 

 

But honestly neither are perfect. I'd keep you monitor then wait for the next gen of monitors to arrive.

x34 clearly, i think a such high price for only full hd widescreen is overpriced, while the x34 is approx. the best monitor on the market, u get 100hz, ips, 21:9, curved, 3440*1440

Why they couldn't release such a monitor ?? Because they can't because of being stuck with aging VESA norms like Display port 1.2 
which allow Max 60 Hz @ 4K and 100 Hz Max @ 3440x1440 

But Display port 1.3 is coming with computex ! ( BTW the new pascal cards are compatible both with DP 1.3 and 1.4 )
