Fitted with a 1900R1curve, up to 180Hz Refresh2, and an Agile-Splendor IPS1 panel that revs up to 0.5ms3 response time – the Predator X34 Series has a single purpose: complete, total immersion.

Curved displays take gaming to a new level of play – one that pulls you in, wraps around your vision and refuses to let go. So, when it came to delivering gameplay in full 34-inch panoramic glory – only a 1900R1 curve in breathtaking 21:9 would do.

Few displays can match the speed of this display. Using fast crystal liquid technology and a wide color gamut, the X34 can achieve a 0.5ms response3 time while maintaining a high color gamut – meaning all the on-screen action comes through nice and smooth with almost no ghosting or color banding.

Want to be at the top of the competitive ladder? Use NVIDIA®’s Reflex Latency Analyzer1,4 to measure exactly how long it takes for your click to register on screen. Finally, a way to accurately measure the bond, or lack thereof, between mouse, PC and your display is all yours..

By detecting the clicks coming from your mouse and measuring the time it takes for a resulting display pixel change (i.e. gun fire) to happen on the screen. A measurement and report ensues.

Accessed via the OSD (on-screen display), GameView provides a number of useful features, such as setting the level of dark boost, ambient lighting, gaming profiles (up to 8), and more. Using this will optimize the display for the type of game you are playing.

With the right tech, you too can protect your eyes from the strains of long gaming sessions. Featuring: Flickerless™, BlueLightShield™, ComfyView™ and Acer Low Dimming technologies.

Choose from four filter settings via the OSD if you suspect that blue lights, being emitted from the LED panel, are causing eyestrain. We know the X34 is impressive but we never said don’t blink!

2 Actual refresh rates may vary depending on model and/or region, computer specifications/hardware and/or set up. This device is designed to support refresh rate overclocking up to 180Hz. However, overclocking may result in system instability. If you experience instability, try reducing the overclock to a lower refresh rate through the on-screen display settings.

However, suuuuuuppppppperrrrr expensive. N-Vidia really has its consumers by the ...... In large screens there are only 2 choices that are compatible with G-Sync. I can get the same monitor with Free Sync for 3 or 400 dollars less if I was using a Radeon Card. Oh and be prepared. This monitor has a huge stand. Hard to use on a normal computer desk.

Awesome monitor if you got a perfect one or at least one with no SCREEN issues (marking/scratch on bezel would not bother me). Don"t want to risk issues or it having an issue down the line if QC is this bad.

Designed for discerning gamers, the Acer Predator X34 ($1,299.99) is a stunning 34-inch ultra-wide gaming monitor featuring a curved screen and Nvidia"s G-Sync anti-tearing technology. It uses an In-Plane Switching (IPS) panel to deliver rich, accurate colors and crisp gray-scale reproduction, and its UWQHD resolution provides outstanding image detail. You only get two video inputs with the X34($880.00 at Amazon), but it is loaded with gaming-friendly features, including aim points, customizable game profiles, and LED lighting effects. It"s our first Editors" Choice for big-screen, ultra-wide gaming monitors.

Design and FeaturesOne look at the X34 tells you that this is not a typical display. For starters, the cabinet is huge, measuring 14.8 by 32.2 by 4 inches (HWD). It uses a bezel-free design and has a glossy-black finish with a chevron-shaped pattern at the rear and a Predator logo on the front. The 34-inch panel uses In-Plane Switching (IPS) technology and has a 3,440-by-1,440 resolution and a 21:9 aspect ratio. It has a matte anti-glare coating and a curvature radius of 1,900R. (This means that if you put these monitors edge to edge to create a complete circle, the circle"s radius would be 1,900mm.) The 20-pound cabinet is supported by a V-shaped aluminum stand that offers 40 degrees of tilt (5 degrees forward, 35 degrees backward) and 5 inches of height adjustability. There are four VESA mounting holes for use with the included mounting plate if you prefer to hang the X34 on a wall, but you"ll need to supply your own wall-mounting bracket kit.

Embedded in the cabinet is a pair of 7-watt speakers that use DTS Sound technology to deliver robust audio output with a generous helping of bass response. All of the X34"s I/O ports are located around back, facing outward. You only get two video inputs with this model (DisplayPort and HDMI), but it is equipped with a five-port USB 3.0 hub (4 downstream, 1 upstream) and a headphone jack.

There are five red function buttons and a Power switch located on the bottom edge of the cabinet, off to the right. The buttons are used to access the settings menus and use on-screen labels that makes navigating the menus easy. They also serve as hot keys for several functions: toggling between inputs; selecting one of three-user defined game profiles that allow you to assign custom image settings for each profile; selecting a overdrive mode (Off, Normal, Extreme) that accelerates pixel response to eliminate motion artifacts; and adjusting speaker volume.

Gamers looking to improve their shooting skills will appreciate the X34"s Aim Point feature, which offers three different aiming targets for use with first-person-shooter (FPS) games. There"s also an Ambient Light feature that lets you enable the LED lights embedded in the bottom edge of the cabinet. You can select a color (red, green, blue, white, and orange) or have it change randomly, and you can select a style (fixed, flashing, breathing, and ripple) to suit your mood. Finally, the Overclock setting allows you to speed up the monitor"s refresh rate to 100Hz (the default rate is 75Hz), but you"ll have to reboot your PC in order for the change to take place.

The Predator X34 comes with DisplayPort and HDMI cables, a USB upstream cable, a Quick Start Guide, and the above-mentioned wall mounting plate and screws. It is covered by a 3-year warranty on parts, labor, and backlight.

PerformanceWhen it comes to performance the X34 hits it out of the park. Color accuracy, as shown on the chart below, is spot-on, with red, green, and blue color measurements (represented by the dots) aligning nicely with their ideal CIE coordinates (represented by the boxes). Colors appeared rich and uniform while watching Captain America: The Winter Soldier on Blu-ray disc, and image quality was sharp.

Gray-scale performance is equally fantastic. The IPS panel displayed every shade of gray on the DisplayMate 64-Step Gray-Scale test cleanly, without any clipped whites or crushed blacks. As a result, highlight and shadow details in my test images were outstanding. As with any IPS panel worth its salt, viewing angles are wide, with no color shifting or loss of luminance. The X34"s 3800R curvature made me feel closer to the action than with a flat screen and provided a sense of increased peripheral vision while playing Call of Duty: Black Ops IIIon the Sony PlayStation 4 console($499.00 at Amazon) .

The panel"s 4-millisecond (gray-to-gray) pixel response kept ghosting artifacts at bay, and the default 75GHz refresh rate provided relatively smooth, blur-free action on my Crysis 3 gaming tests, but I did notice minimal screen tearing. With G-Sync enabled, the action was noticeably more fluid, and the tearing artifacts were no longer present. The panel"s 10.3-millisecond input lag (the time it takes for the monitor to react to a controller command) is short, but not as short as the BenQ XL2430T. Regardless, input lag is not an issue here.

The X34 drew 49 watts of power in testing while set to Standard mode and 36 watts when set to Eco mode. By way of comparison the Acer XR341CK consumed 50 watts in Standard mode and an equally low 36 watts in Eco mode. The BenQ XR3501 also used 50 watts in Standard mode, but lacks an ECO power-saving mode.

ConclusionIf you"re looking to pair your extreme gaming system with an equally extreme big-screen ultra-wide monitor, look no further the Acer Predator X34, but prepared to part with a wad of cash. Its 34-inch curved screen brings more depth to your gaming experience than you get from a large, flat-screen model, and it delivers excellent motion handling, color, and gray-scale performance. It may cost more than the Acer XR341CK and the BenQ XR3501, but it offers better all-around performance than both and has a higher resolution than the BenQ model. Throw in a pair of rich-sounding speakers, LED lighting effects, and programmable gaming modes, and the Predator X34 earns our Editors" Choice for big-screen, ultra-wide gaming monitors.

Without it, you can get "screen tearing" or micro-stutters during gaming when your monitor"s refresh rate doesn"t match the frames that your graphics card is producing per second. At the same time, screen tearing is only really noticeable during fast gameplay, and I"ve found that it"s not the worst thing in the world. Several gamers I know can deal with it and can even ignore screen tearing altogether, myself included.
