I went from the aoc cu34g2xp to an LG 34gs95qe and agree with what you said. The aoc was a decent monitor, I didn’t notice any smearing or other issues VA’s can have. The LG is beautiful, OLED looks so much better. I personally love the 800r curve it has as well.
I recently bought it and i like it alot, super crisp color if you like that ? i do not play FPS games alot, but when i do it's CS and Delta Force. Craphics card is 7800XT Colorhound OC and i have no problems with smearing. AMD adrenalin i do custom or quality settings. For me it is a very bright monitor and the colors are very saturated. I also see some flickering in color adjustment and that is not right. I have calibrated a few times trying sRGB and activating HDR support. Considering to return it, only to have the same monitor ( i think it's the model, have to speak with support ) If it turns out that it's the model or something i do wrong, i'll buy a second one! One thing is sure... i'll never go back to not using 34" UW.
I am late on answering here... I'm testing it, if i turn off Color Temperature Control, i also set the Saturation down from 100 to 80, otherwise red is very red. Still it is flickering now and then.
For the same reason there are no curved IPS panels... It's difficult. Since there are no curved IPS panels, no one wants to make 34" UW panels because it is simply horrible to use such a wide flat panel. Now, we are no longer in 2022 and earlier where only Samsung panels above the G6 were good VA panels, now panels made by TCL CSOT, using Samsung's old factories and their patents are capable of decent performance. The difficult part is finding monitors that use these panels... For now, I can confirm that AOC CU34G2XP and CU34G4Z KTC H34S18 Lenovo G34W-30 Philips Evnia 34M2C3500L TCL 34R83Q They are the only ones that do or do use these "new" HVA panels from TCL CSOT which have performance in response times much higher than the rest of the VA panels not made by TCL.
Lots of "VA bad" vibes, but this monitor is pretty solid. No black smearing that I see. Only oddity is that sometimes things colored a solid blue will look slightly striped like old CRT monitors. Only noticeable on websites and such, not in game. Do not buy for HDR reasons... not an HDR monitor.
I got mine four days ago, and my unit suffers from extensive light bleeding and color washout toward the bottom half of the screen. Dark greys appear as washed-out browns, which is very noticeable, especially when reading articles on Wikipedia.
Got it replaced by AOC. The new unit doesn’t have any of those issues.
I have this and really like it. Playing mostly arc raiders and enjoying the bit of extra peripheral vision. By no means a cultured gamer so to VA stuff doesn’t bug me enough to not enjoy it
It was pretty smooth for me to adjust as the radius isn’t super aggressive. Those 800-1000R ones I’d immune would take more adapting. But even for work and just browsing, the curve doesn’t bother me
Just wanted to follow up and say thanks - I picked up two of these while it was on sale so that I could get the beginnings of two rigs going so we can race at the same time. Very pleased with them.
I have this. It works great. https://www.bestbuy.com/product/aoc-cu34g2xp-34-va-curved-gaming-monitor-wqhd-3440x1440-180hz-1ms-freesync-hdr-400-black-silver-red/JX9GSKPJQR
