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.
I think it's amazing. It's a huge upgrade from my last monitors and I haven't had any issues with it.
I also bought a competitive gaming monitor (IPS 360Hz) and in my limited testing there is a slight bonus in using that but I just use the MSI as my main gaming and work monitor.
I'm pretty sure the one you're looking at is a flat panel instead of curved.
There's a similar model from the same brand that's 240hz 1500R curved for $200 but it's also a VA panel so no bump there. However, the Suevery only comes with a 1 year warranty, versus 3 years for the MSI.
Personally, I'd go for MSI since it's a known and established brand. Warranty and RMA stuff with otherwise unknown brands often leads to headache.
It shows up $169 on my app and not the price you list, although Google shows it at that price. This 300 brightness vs the sue 380 and this 4000:1 contrast vs sue 1000:1. Feel like you give up something for both, but either at 34" for $180 or less, 1440, curved and 144hz+, seem like good options. I'd probably go with MSI personally for name recognition. If you can save $20, maybe it makes it more compelling for the sue. Sue does come w 2x display ports, so that might be intriguing if you have two PCs or a console you want to run DP to.
