AOC - CU34G4Z

Ah I just got mine today. Here were the top 3 picks I narrowed down to: * MSI MPG 346CQRF X24 * Alienware AW3425DWM * AOC CU34G4Z There were several other options but I eliminated them. Ended up going for the MSI. MSI has a higher refresh rate than the Alienware, and the Alienware had smearing at Extreme response time. MSI also had higher static contrast and an AI tools function (not sure how good it is). There isn't much information on the MSI though.

J'ai eu le AOC CU34G4Z pour 289.99€ sur Amazon 2 jours avant black friday, actuellement il arpente le 349.99€........... FACTURE A L'APPUI 😂😂 Bon, l'ayant reçu aujourd'hui même vers 14h00, j'ai fais une journée test de cet écran, je l'ai brancher sur une Zotac RTX 5070 Ti SFF 16gb vram, C'est un gain supérieur comparé à mon ancien écran 29UM65D (LG 29" Ultrawide 60hz 1080p → AOC 34" Ultrawide 240hz 1440p) Alors commmençons : dès que j'ai brancher l'écran, j'ai vu des couleurs pires que .. dégueulasse, un gris trop prononcé, le noir pas assez profond.. bref un début d'expérience pitorresque, Après 1h de configuration dans l'OSD ainsi que sur le panel Nvidia + HDR actif, j'ai retrouver des couleurs plus flashy (chacun ses goûts, j'aime les red-green-blue très prononcés à la limite des dessins-animés), une image 5x plus nette en parlant des contours d'écritures à l'écrans ainsi qu'à l'image perçue à l'oeil L'idée de 240hz sur un 1440p est inutile, sauf pour les jeux compétitifs type Fortnite, CS go et compagnie Il y'a l'édition AOC 32" 240hz 1080p sur Electro Depot pour 180€, soir la moitiée du prix du 240hz 1440p qui est un peu plus intéressante pour aller au MAXIMUM des capacités de cet écran sans en perdre une miette sur 70% des jeux en général, Je ne regrette pas mon achat, mais si j'aurais réfléchis plus tôt, peut-être que je me serais orienté vers le 32" 1080p Parce que jouer sur un 240hz sur des jeux où je n'atteins déjà même pas 180hz en 1440p .... Bon, Lorsque la pièce est éclairée par une lumière, la dalle a des reflets désagréable car dalle VA Les boutons sont chiants, j'aurais préféré un analogue, c'est plus intuitif et ça ÉVITES D'ÉTEINDRE CE P****N D'ÉCRAN SANS FAIRE EXPRÈS Laissez en mode USER/CUSTOM, ne pas utiliser les Game mode FPS/RTS/Racing/etc.. c'est purement commercial et c'est nul nul nul nul nul L'écran est posé sur un bureau assis-debout entrée de gamme Amazon 100x60cm, il y'a un volant logitech G25 devant l'écran, et j'ai plus aucune place dispo sur mon bureau, le pied prends trop de place, et est trop cheap à mon goût, maximisez un pied à clipser au bureau en vesa 100x100 pour ergonomiser vos espaces Sur ma config PC je dispose d'un Ryzen 7 5800x3D + RTX 5070ti + 64gb 3600mhz DDR4, et c'est malheureusement pas suffisant pour aller au bout des 240hz sur cet écran MAIS MAIS MAIS MAIS MAIS C'est du future-proof, donc sur du long terme, il restera encore actuel lors de la sortie des RTX 7060/7070/7080/7090 pour atteindre les 240 fps sur 100% des jeux en 1440p Après réglages de l'OSD + Panel Nvidia, l'écran devient intéressant Cables USB fournit Cables HDMI fournit Cable DP 1.4 fournit Adaptative sync + G-sync pouvant s'activer mais pas très utile.. sans il n'y a pas de déchirure, ou très très très peu en tout cas Bref, Mitigé sur l'achat de cet écran dans l'immédiat même si je me tournes vers le positif malgré tout

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.

Hey. In my country, Hungary (close to Germany), the AOC CU34G4Z costs barely more than other 3440x1440 monitors but it's 240Hz. I think its previous versions (100Hz, 144Hz) were heralded as some of the best value ultrawides in the previous years. I remember having the 144Hz version like 5 years ago, I was very happy with it. Maybe it's similarly well-priced in Germany too.

I have the AOC CU34G4Z and had a Gigabyte M27Q (first version) before. Out of the box the aoc cu34g4z was better in everything except color vividness, by default its settings had colors that looked a bit gray/desaturated compared to my old ips, but after playing with the settings the colors are now better. Contrast ratio is much better than the m27q, black actually looks close to real black (obviously not as black as an oled but much blacker than on the old one). Response time/smearing/.. is great for my eyes, but tbh I'm not super sensitive to it. Usb port placement is dumb, just like on every other screen, lol Going from 27" 1440p to 34" 3440x1440 was amazing, much more screen space but still pretty easy to render for my rx 9070. If you haven't seen it irl, it's basically like a 27" 1440p display with extra space on each side. No dead pixels.

I have the VA panel. Lots of black level smearing and poor motion clarity. I’d opt for the OLED in a heartbeat.

I used th aoc 34g4z i think its the same panel (240hz, 0,3 mprt etc) and the performance is excelent, no ghosting no smearing. white text at black background are not smearing when scrolling.

I currently have the CU34G4Z and I'm thinking of "down"grading to the older version, cause the newer one only has 2500:1 contrast ratio, but the blacks also suck on it because of a heavy glow in each corner, which doesn't make the black look black, but milky instead. How was it with the AOC CU34G2XP? did it have VA glow?

How is the VA Glow? I have the CU34G4Z and it's really bad, where I don't feel like I'm in a dark area in dark games

How is the VA Glow? My CU34G4Z has a lot of it in each corner, breaking the immersion that I'm playing a dark game.

There are no more IPS in the segment anymore. I spent a whole month looking for them, even tried to order one from an outlet - no luck. The only chance is that Z Edge, which I suspect is the same panel as the Gigabyte M34WQ, but there's zero reviews. In the end I bought an AOC CU34G4Z which I use also for simracing, after being afraid of VA for years. It's fantastic, I like It more than my previous Gigabyte M34WQ ips.

Very happy with my purchase I literally can't find anything wrong with it!

Colours are great, but I guess the blacks could be deeper. Unfortunately I don't have another VA panel to compare but coming from IPS/TN there is definitely an improvement

Literally 0 smear in games. Granted I have only played BF6,WoW, and CS2. Readability is also excellent, only place I have seen some smearing is on the UFO test.

I am pretty sure it has freesync, I have noticed 0 tearing while gaming.

Yes I can activate it in the menu
