ASUS TUF - VG34VQL3A

I still dont understand why VG34VQL3A more expensive than VG34VQ3B when 3B is the newer model. Better stand matters that so much?

Same with VG34VQL3A.

I was in the same boat and ordered both. Ive got the asus VG34VQL3A VA right in front of me playing RDR2 and a Dell Alienware AW3423DWF OLED watching Stream. My 34GN850P-B IPS will arive tomorrow. Already got one but it was DOA. I can tell you 2 things about the OLED and VA: 1. The VA has terrible VRR Flicker and I had to disable it because it gave me headaches. Bright areas always flicker regardless of FPS. It flickers with 40 and with 140. Common problem with this Panel but everything else is superb for VA. You have to sit straight in front of it for having its color shine bright. I like this one a lot but the VRR sucks ass. 2. The OLED has terrible fringing on text. Its barely noticable on white text with bright background but white text on black background is a pain to read. VRR flicker is not that bad and limited to grey-ish areas when running below 57fps. Will not keep it since the text fringing is driving me nuts. Feel free to AMA

I bought a Asus Vg34vql3a is a VA Panel 1500R 180Hz. Its been really good for me. Im loving that monitor !

I just bought the Asus Tuf [VG34VQL3A](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C7BBG2QB?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title) and I couldn't be happier. Very little if any ghosting that I personally notice on the ufo test with overdrive set to 1.

I eventually went with the 3A. It is brighter than stated 400 nits—the 1B is only about 10% brighter. The 3A has better color, and the option for a higher refresh rate. I forgot to measure the contrast, but I suspect it is at least as good as the 1B, which is actually around 4500:1 according to RTINGS. In a dark room, I find the display brightness to be adequate. Anecdotally, the smearing is minimal, and also seems superior to the 1B.

I'm not sure what the exact difference is, but I just got the VG34VQL3A and it was only $250 which would be about £190. It did take about a month to arrive, but I've been pretty happy with it. Not sure what's up with the price discrepancy though. Edit: whoops just realized you're talking in euros lol it's about €210

I have just bought an Asus VG34VQL3A, and I’m *extremely* happy with it for the price. I bought it for 350, but if I didn’t know the price, I’d easily guess 500 - 600 My particular one does not have any noticeable smearing whatsoever in normal use with medium OD. The only thing it did have were some bright-ish pear-shaped lines around the center that were visible if viewing it at an angle, but they’ve been getting better and better, I’ll assume they will go away after a few days of use (had mine since last Thursday)

I bough one of the asus tuf 34 monitors with va panel. Its so great, never go back to ips on main screen. Rn i have 2 panels in build one ips another va, i dont see a difference between them in colors etc

This one was one of my few choices, but i chose Asus Tuf VG34VQL3A. 300cdm on msi is too low for me.

Dunno, i just ordered it xd

So far great) vrr works great, oc'ed it to 165hz, good colors without calibration.

There’s a 180hz version on Amazon of the ASUS with 125% srgb gamut specifically that one cause there’s two different versions with 180hz and it’s $349 34 inch. Used to sell these at Best Buy when I worked there and owned it personally and was awesome. I’d get that and not either of these just a thought. Hope that helps! 🙏 Model# VG34VQL3A

1500r curve just a heads up though just fyi

It’s right around the same price point in the pics with better specs and I owned it personally and worked at Best Buy and tested most of these monitors for customers. Was only a suggestion. I loved mine just wanted see if I could help. I had noticed a lot of returns for Samsung monitors with dead pixel issues and it’s only about $50 more for the best quality version of that monitor model. Both those are perfectly fine just figured I’d throw that idea in there and try help you squeeze every penny out of what you’re paying for it. Again both are totally fine options at that price just a suggestion that’s all.

I have the VG34VQL3A, i did some searching online before i made my choice, all i know its better than VG34VQL1B in many ways, as for VG34VQ3B its 8 bit while the other 2 are 10 bit also the 3B doesnt have adjustable stand if that matters to you, i was sceptical about buying a VA since my previous monitor was IPS but looks fine so far, it says 180 hz but its 165 you need to OC for 180hz but i dont think that 15hz would make any difference unless you are a lizzard hunting flies, also i didnt notice any black smearing i see in IPS-VA comparisons, i have played Throne and Liberty, Dragon Dogma 2, Arma 3, Starfield and didnt notice any black smearing or anything VA is famous for, also there is a dude on youtube who says its not sharp thats the not the case with my unit at least, this is what came to mind on the fly, if you need anything else just ask.

Im coming from a 75hz too (used at 60hz most of the time due to GPU memory running at max all the time at 75hz for some reason) and its a day and night difference at 144hz, i have 6800XT but i read that it works well with Nvidia GPU\`s too. Few things to add, set the color temp to normal if its yellowish, and set Variable OD to 5, thats what worked best for me, Game visual - Racing mode. Btw whats your current monitor size?

From 32 to 34, there is something that isnt being talked about at all, it is wider but its also narrower, you might need a day or two to get used to smaller text size, but wont be an issue long term since once you get used to it you wont notice the size difference unless you use them side by side.

Hey I am not a monitor professional but I had the asus for a week or so. It was generally good although I come from a 60hz TN, the ghosting was really not noticable although black smearing was.(still not a dealbreaker, imo I could only see it on the UFO test). One thing is these seem to have an issue with QC, mine came with a stuck pixel so I returned, but this looks like a widespread issue.

Here is the list na pinagpipilian ko before: **VA Monitors(low/mid tier - might have smearing or ghosting issue):** AOC CU34G2XP 34" 240hz - 20k+ , na try ko yung 32" so got good expectation sa 34" model. Gigabyte GP-G34WQC-A-AP 144hz - 16k+ , this is probably the cheapest on my list, though bad yung reviews. Asus TUF Gaming VG34VQL3A 34" -22k-26k - since im using Asus laptop, i am considering this. meron pa syang isang model, though i dont really know the main difference. both are 180z. good review from YT. **OLED Monitors(high ends - no smearing/ghosting but possibility of burn-in):** Acer Predator X34 X 34" OLED - sub 50k, gaming monitor aesthetics, 240hz.. so for 240hz OLED its already cheap. AOC Argon Pro AG346UCD QD-OLED 34" - 50k+ , 175hz OLED.. just middle ground from acer and LG. LG UltraGear 34GS95QE-B OLED 34" WQHD - 60k+, the most expensive on my list, this is the one i consider since it looks non-gamery. though it lacks some feature for its price. there is also Asus ROG, which i didnt consider since its 80k+ which is out of my budget. so as you can see, im already considering OLED(rabbit decision hole hahaha), I have enough fund to stretch to even buy the 80k ROG but im not willing to.. so nung lumabas yung samsung odyssey g8 34" OLED 175hz sa L store na 60% off(37k sale price, 35k using voucher and free shipping, 75k-79k original price).. then napa step back ako.. its best of both world na.. mid price from 20-70k budget, while getting all the benefits of a high end OLED. though not sure if it still exists, since nung binalikan ko yung product page,. not found na. https://preview.redd.it/yib86827i76f1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=59e94803b864eb8cdfd4028e8cff2e490d81e879

The 3A has better response times also, had the monitor for about 5 months now and it was built the same month I bought it. The 3A is 1ms response time vs 5ms, it has 8+2bit color and is really bright already. The flickering only happens when I decide to close a game and it is only for a split second. If you don't have YouTube open it won't happen at all. Paid $250 with tax included at a store on Black Friday. So far it is amazing because I went from a 40inch 60mhz screen to a 34inch Ultra wide 180mhz screen. Took a little while to get use to the smaller screen but my eyes don't hurt after hours of game play thanks to the 180mhz (OC'd) screen. Hope this helps someone.

I bought the VG34VQL3A, and as you mentioned, it is narrower. What I didn’t realize is that it actually has the same height as a 27'' monitor, which means the text size is also the same. I'm using it alongside a 27'', and they fit perfectly together—it even looks wider! Because of this, the text size wasn’t an issue for me since I'm already used to it from my 27''. I did adjust the text size though in Windows, which improved things even more. The biggest annoyance is the flickering when using G-Sync, it was driving me crazy. I had to disable G-Sync and stick with VRR instead. The performance isn't quite as smooth as G-Sync, but it’s still fine I guess. (But if I knew this will happen, I would decide sth with G-Sync certified)

The issues I experienced were mainly in-game, which led me to think it was just a G-Sync problem. In the end, I didn’t feel completely comfortable with monitor, especially when watching YouTube or other content with black bars on the sides, and the lower FPS due to the higher resolution was also a downside. So, I decided to return it. :( I felt bad about it because it’s honestly a great monitor. There were no negative aspects related to the VA panel, I couldn’t even tell the difference compared to my IPS monitor, which I have right next to it. The larger screen size made it an excellent workspace as well. Despite all these positive features, it just didn’t quite fit my usage style. However, I might consider buying it again in the future once I upgrade my graphics card. I still have a soft spot for that monitor :)

Just got this. Amazing monitor. There's an "overclock" option in the OSD menu, which the OS picks up as native 180hz support, no need to create a custom resolution. Haven't tried overclocking via custom resolution. I want to mention g-sync flicker as I was concerned about this since it's a VA panel. The first one I bought had really bad flickering during loading scenes mostly but also a bit during gameplay. I exchanged it for a different one and I can't see any flicker at all, even during loading scenes! The color, brightness, and motion clarity is as great as my new MSI IPS panel. Highly recommended for an inexpensive ultra wide. 95% as good as OLED at 1/3 the cost.

VG34VQL3A. Love it after 4 months.

I've done a quick search, because these monitors also once was in my radar for a while.. here's what I can conclude: -All of them comes with great contrast ratio of 4000:1 -VG34VQ3B DON'T have hdr10, 400nits, 180hz, 1ms MPRT -VG34VQL1B got the highest brightness at 550nits, hdr10, 165hz, 1ms MPRT -VG34VQL3A is samsung va, good 1ms GtG, 400nits, hdr10, 165hz (oc 180hz)

I tried the Asus and it had laughably bad blacks. Sitting next to my 27in Asus tuf IPS, it looked awful. I would go with the Samsung, haven’t tried it but it has to better than the Asus. I ended up trying the new Alienware 34in VA and it matches my ips with color and blacks which I’m most concerned about.

I have an asus vg34 that I got for around that price. I returned the msi mag it was absolute trash.

I bought Asus for $269 and have zero issues with it. Great gaming monitor for the price.

I have a Asus Tuff Gaming 34” and it’s perfect for my Mac. I liked the one for home so much, I bought one for work.
