Reddit mentions of Acer Predator Z35 35-inch Curved Full HD (2560 x 1080) NVIDIA G-Sync Display, 144Hz, 2x9w speakers, HDMI & DP

I got this guy: Acer 35" curved 21:9 144Hz. It's about $100 more than the one you listed but thought you may like the option. Cheers

Edit--it's perfect for shooters, I've logged way too many hours in bf1 on it. Works great with my gtx 1060 6GB

I don't think it'd be "unsupported" per se, but you'll be struggling to get decent FPS. From what I can see, the 34UM88 is 3440x1440. I have a 34UM94/95 which has the same resolution and my 980 Ti keeps up pretty well when OCed.

If you want to keep the 970 you might consider a lower-res 21:9 display (2560x1080) as that is a lot fewer pixels to push.

The Acer Predator Z35 comes to mind, for example.

Well, you have a few options. Depending on your price range, you can go with 2560x1080 which come in 25" (don't bother), 29" (sweet spot for ppi, same as 24"/25" 16:9 monitors), 34", or 35" (specifically the z35 for g-sync or xz35 for freesync). Benefit of 2560x1080 is being able to generally saturate the max refresh rate of your monitor, given the gpu you have and are going to buy. Only downside I can think of is with making such a long-term purchase as a monitor, you're "only" getting 1080p, but I don't really see that as an issue as others might. Also, most of these monitors only go up to 75hz, only the very high end cards reach any higher, and those are usually either g-sync for the acer x34 which goes to 100hz @ 1440p or the acer (x)z35 which goes to I think 144hz @ 1080p.

There are also 3440x1440 monitors and those usually only come in 34". I can't think of any other sizes, someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Also, do you want curved or not? I don't have an ultrawide but I've been researching them for a couple years now and I think it comes down to the size of the monitor. I think 25" and 29" ultrawides are fine for being flat, since they're only so wide but once you get into 34" territory, it would be such a large screen that it is beneficial to have the curve, which is pretty much what the market really offers: no curved 25" or 29" and most, if not all, 34" are curved. The curve helps keep the same distance from each edge of the screen to your eyes the same. These do come at a higher price, though.

Prices for each respective size

• 25" uncurved for $167.26 from LG with Amazon prime (though I don't recommend this size).
  
  
• 29" uncurved for $286.99, has freesync up to 75hz (my personal suggestion for a 1080p ultrawide, same vertical height as a 24" monitor).
  
  34" Now there are many options in the 34" class ranging anywhere from ~$700 all the way up to $1300.
  
  
• We have the Acer XZ35 35" curved 1080p @ 144hz, freesync, $749.99, amazon prime.
  
  
• The G-sync brother of the above, the Acer Z35, 35" curved 1080p @ 144hz, $975.99
  
  
• 34" LG 34UC88, curved 1440p @ 75hz, freesync for $840.99.
  
  
• 34" Acer XR341CK, curved 1440p @ 75hz, freesync, $848.75.
  
  
• 34" G-sync brother of the above, Acer X34 Predator, curved 1440p @ 100hz, $1,199.00, Amazon prime.
  
  
• The most expensive ultrawide monitor currently, barring massive business monitors, the 34" Asus PG348Q, curved 1440P @ 100hz, g-sync only (no freesync alternative that I know of), $1,299.00, Amazon prime.
  
  Hopefully that list that I've compiled for you helps you and others out on finding what type of monitor you want, what works for you, and your price range. I could go on about the ppi of the monitors and all the little details, but I feel like this post has pretty much most of the important details listed out. Feel free to ask me anything about anything here. And I apologize if I left any monitors out. I chose these all based on my own personal thought of each monitor being the best at its price point.

Depends on what's impoirtant to you. Do you want a high refresh rate for gaming? Do you care about anti-motionblur? Do you want 2560x1080 or 3440x1440?

I'd recommend https://www.amazon.com/Acer-Predator-Z35-35-inch-speakers/dp/B01A0FEBXQ/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1518629874&sr=1-1&keywords=Acer+Predator+Z35+35-inch+Curved+Full+HD+%282560+x+1080%29 for 2560x1080@200Hz gaming. ULMB only works up to 144Hz but the monitor can obviously be set to that, important to keep in mind.

Maybe new, idk, but it's the one I've had eyes on for a bit!

You're in luck! There are several 34-35" 1080p 144hz ultrawides out there!

Examples:

LG 34UC79G-B 34-Inch 21:9 Curved UltraWide IPS Gaming Monitor with 144Hz Refresh Rate

Acer Predator Z35 35-inch Curved Full HD (2560 x 1080) NVIDIA G-Sync Display, 144Hz, 2x9w speakers, HDMI & DP

Edit 1: These are curved, will see if i can find flat panels

Edit 2: They all seem to be curved, but honestly I love a curved ultrawide. I own both a flat ultrawide and a curved ultrawide, and the curve is a must have. It's so wide that the flat panel looks distorted at the edges. The curve eliminates that distortion.

You'd have to go 1080p, can't get 1440p ultrawide g-sync in your budget

these are in usd, but I did convert it.

You could get this: http://www.amazon.com/Acer-Predator-Z35-35-inch-speakers/dp/B01A0FEBXQ

It's 35 inches but can be overclocked to 200Hz.

Isn't the monitor cheaper brand new

is this a good deal?

The Acer I had was this one. It was unusable, even just for Windows. I'd be playing a game and it's like vaseline is smeared on the screen, the ghosting was unreal.

I should try some older games. I only tried what I had installed. Granted all the games I mentioned (except Doom) are either new, performance demanding or CPU intensive.

I would love to get an Acer predator monitor, it cost about 1000$ us and here is the link thanks so much for this huge giveaway

they dont.

Ultrawide 1440 100hz OR Ultrawide 1080 144hz?

So I'm building a no limits top tier gaming pc soon, and I'm trying to decide on an ultrawide monitor. There is no such thing as ultrawide 1440 144hz, so should I go for the higher refresh rate or the higher resolution?

I'm not settled on any particular models yet, but it would be something like these two:

Acer Predator Z35 144hz

Acer Predator 34-inch 100hz (oc)

>I think I'm gonna wait for a 29", 21:9, 2560x1080, 144hz (with GSync maybe, but not Freesync) if it will ever exist!
I didn't find any monitor with these specs.

Is the monitor being 29" super important to you? Because the Acer Predator Z35 matches these specs in all but size.

because you dont have amd so there's no point in having a monitor with free sync. you need a gsync monitor, especially if you're going to have a 1080 ti. this would be the monitor to get https://www.amazon.com/Acer-Predator-Z35-35-inch-speakers/dp/B01A0FEBXQ if you still want ultra wide curved

Oh my mistake, by 29 in i meant 2560x1080 resolution. Here are some 144hz 34in monitors. If you can find one, the Acer Z35 often has factory refurbished ones for 700, and is probably the best out there, up to 200hz overclockable. Same thing with the BenQ XR3501, they often retail around 700

It's a 1440p, not 1080p. If you go with this you could then afford a better GPU unless you already own the 1060 then the 1060 should be fine.

Acer Predator Z35 - 35" curved 200hz

http://www.amazon.com/Acer-Predator-Z35-35-inch-speakers/dp/B01A0FEBXQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1456955460&sr=8-1&keywords=predator+z35

This monitor is incredible. You're completely right, the 200hz is far more important than a higher resolution to the type of gamer that's buying this.

how about this? http://www.amazon.com/Acer-Predator-Z35-35-inch-speakers/dp/B01A0FEBXQ/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1459225937&sr=8-3&keywords=x34+predator

well imho refreshrate > resolution

gsync is damn nice although ive only tried it a little bit.

so if money isnt an issue and you would consider balance between refreshrate+resolution id say: http://www.amazon.com/Acer-Predator-Z35-35-inch-speakers/dp/B01A0FEBXQ

Its 144hz. They don't make 200hz monitors.

It depends on how much you want to spend.

$250-$300 = 1080p 144Hz / Get this if you are on a budget https://www.amazon.com/LG-Electronics-24GM77-B-24-Inch-LED-Lit/dp/B00P0EOX1S

$600-$800 = 1440p 144Hz / If you have the money go for this https://www.amazon.com/Acer-Predator-XB271HU-27-inch-Widescreen/dp/B0173PEX20

$800+ If you're feeling really gangster get this https://www.amazon.com/Acer-Predator-Z35-35-inch-speakers/dp/B01A0FEBXQ

Personally after switching to 144Hz I would never consider getting a 60Hz monitor ever again. It's just so much better.

You are literally the textbook definition of ignorance! I did not say "144hz UW", but since you aren't capable of find out yourself:

https://www.amazon.com/BenQ-XR3501-35-inch-Curved-Monitor/dp/B01047I0X2

Acer Z35 overclocks to 200hz :) 21:9 2560x1080p

Pretty much in the same place as you, so maybe you should not take this as a recommendation, but maybe helpful to compare notes.

I decided to try and stay under $1000 US for a 34/35" with free or g sync and 144Hz. That makes a short list. This one is at the top of my list and I might pull the trigger and order today.

https://www.amazon.com/Acer-Predator-Z35-35-inch-speakers/dp/B01A0FEBXQ/

I am also digging through reddit and the web for info I might have missed before placing the order.

have you looked into ultra wide monitors? might be a better option than looking at those annoying monitor bezels


edit* example

thanks a lot for the help gents, but the problem is i already bought the 980 tis way before i decided to go ultrawide. so my other alternative is the z35 or just go 2560x1440 with the xb271 and i don't want to upgrade to the 1000 series and wud rather wait out for the 2000 series, but using a 1080p with the rig im building is kinda underwhelming. so, what do you guys think just remain on 1080p or get one of the alternatives?

If you really want a 2560x1080 monitor, i would reccomend; https://www.amazon.com/Acer-Predator-Z35-35-inch-speakers/dp/B01A0FEBXQ/ref=mp_s_a_1_7?crid=1DVXXRJS5TC4E&keywords=200hz+monitor&qid=1554106469&s=gateway&sprefix=200hz+m&sr=8-7

Sorry about your eye pain. You may want to have that examined since 60hz monitors don't have that affect on the general population.
