I put underrated UWQHD gaming monitor in the main title because it strikes me that there is little to be found about this screen on YouTube and other well-known brands that are mainly bought and often more expensive. I was able to buy this monitor here as a second chance. I will try to discuss the pros and cons as briefly as possible and give some tips about this monitor; - The quality is good, the colors are good, the brightness is good enough because it shouldn't be too bright, otherwise your eyes will suffer, even the contrast is quite okay for an IPS panel I must say, my 27LG 2K monitor had more trouble with that, was less good. The screen is adjustable in height, although it does not go very high. - I use 2 tables because a 34 inch on 1 small table would be difficult ;), keep that in mind. - Downloading the Omen Gaming Hub software is also very necessary and handy because if I have to mention a small minus, it is the physical buttons on the monitor, they are of good quality, but the place where those buttons are is not so nice to everything, which is why that Omen gaming hub software is important. In the beginning I had to reset it a few times (certain settings), no idea how that came about but I didn't give up and now it's fine. - The monitor is also very light, you almost don't have to touch it to twist the monitor, etc.. and the installation of the screen was also very easy. - If you do PC gaming then it is best to use a displayport cable, but be careful if you ever want to remove the displayport cable, you have to push it and carefully pull it out, it is not like an hdmi cable that you can pull out immediately . It may also be your PC or laptop that the supplied displayport cable does not fit in your laptop / PC, then you have to buy a StarTech Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort. Even if you connect the monitor to the PC/laptop, check everything carefully in the windows settings whether everything is correct regarding the refresh rate, etc... sometimes this happens automatically, sometimes you have to set it yourself, is often the case with headphones , is often the case in a game you are playing. - Keep in mind that not all games support the ultrawide, unfortunately youtube is not full screen, that is due to youtube, not the monitor. But the games that you can play on ultrawide are wonderful, in the beginning I had to get used to it, but the next day it went very well. - You must have a good laptop/pc if you want to set a game in high settings, a UWQHD requires more fps than a full hd or 2K monitor. My laptop is also not that great anymore, for example I can't set the highest refresh rate in Windows, it's because the laptop is getting too old. If like me you are planning to buy a new gaming pc/laptop; I recommend a good game pc with at least a 3070 graka, with a laptop best go for a 3080/3080TI or 3090/3090ti, msi are good laptops but as with everything, you will have to if you want to do 2K/UWQHD gaming and want to play on high settings. I do recommend a gaming PC, you get a little more value for money for the same you have a little more fps. Also inserts a 2TB SSD drive. This aside. -Mss still important for some to know; I have a 5 year old nvidia laptop and I don't suffer from flickers, not unimportant, not even at 30fps, for example, no flickers. - I don't suffer from blurriness or back bleed etc while gaming... Many people who look for a gaming monitor also look at a VA monitor, believe me dear people; an IPS panel is much better, the only advantage with a VA panel is the contrast, but that's about it. An IPS panel is much better, no blurring or black smearing or whatever they call it all right. Go for an IPS panel. - I think this monitor does not support 4K playstation and xbox, it is also not a 4K monitor so yes... - Another tip; if you game, just buy good wireless headphones that support eg 7.1 surround or something. Is very nice. My current monitor settings; HP Enhance+ (low). Brightness and contrast at 100 Adaptive sync on. Reaction time is on the 3rd bolleke, just not on the fastest. If you set it this way and you can set a world of warcraft for example on high or the highest settings, it's really beautiful. If you are a PC gamer, this monitor is really more than sufficient. Highly recommended.

I put underrated UWQHD gaming monitor in the main title because it strikes me that there is little to be found about this screen on YouTube and other well-known brands that are mainly bought and often more expensive.

A sleek business look with very good gaming performance. Ideal for combining productivity and games. The extra width is immediately a relief in games like PUBG and Rocket League. I'm going to buy a 2nd one to put above it. Split screen also works very well in Windows 10. If you go purely for gaming, I would rather consider a curved, but in my working method and for this relatively low amount, I cannot imagine a better 1440p widescreen. I bought this monitor after the extensive review of TotallydubbedHD and I have not regretted it for a moment!
