AOC - CU34G2XPD

I've always said I'd never get a va panel but seeing the reviews for the AOC CU34G2XPD I decided to chance it and I'm honestly blown away by how good it is for the price. £270

i went through a similar search and didn't have much luck finding a 34" ultrawide IPS. i landed on the AOC CU34G2XP which meets all your requirements except technically gsync - it has freesync premium but from what [i've read](https://pcmonitors.info/aoc/aoc-cu34g2xp-bk-180hz-va-ultrawide/#:~:text=Adaptive%2DSync%20is%20supported%2C%20allowing,180Hz%20VRR%20range%20plus%20LFC) it's still gsync compatible. worth a look. paid 379.99 at best buy

for this pirice range i don't think there are better option, anyway id going for the aoc, for fast va e 180hz and i does not have the problems of the Samsung one

Finally ready to ascend from my trusty AOC CU34G2X/BK 34" to what I believe is the ultrawide sweet spot - that gorgeous 45" 5K2K OLED! The GX9's 125 PPI, insane 1300 nit brightness, and 330Hz would be a night-and-day upgrade from my current setup. Been lurking here some time and seen some great reviews for it.

if you live near a microcenter, i would wait and see if they have any refurbished ultrawides. the one by me in fairfax had like 9 refurbished AOC CU34G2s in stock and i got one for 150 bucks when they still msrp for over twice that amount new. you'll have a month to see if you notice the smearing and can return it, and its not a big investment otherwise, great option to just try one out imo. i thought id notice it more but haven't noticed it at all. have been more than happy with it

AOC G2 is an outdated model. I have it, and it's fine. I'd go for the AOC G4.

34". All the way. We have had AOC x 2 with zero issues, great monitor. My lad is currently on an LG 34" which seems to be fine, little bit of bleed. My daughter is also on a 34" Viewsonic, i'm on a 49" uw. My two main gaming buds are also 34". Both with 3060s. For gaming, gotta be 34" curved, it's a beautiful thing. Imo, i would stay away from nzxt myself.

Having the same usage as you, i have a AOC 34" Ultra wide, and i'm thinking to go for a 32" 4K specially because of the height resolution.
