Looking for a new monitor.


Recommended Posts

This is the current monitor I'm looking at buying. Does anyone know of any deals or good buys at this price range? I'm in no hurry to purchase so I can wait a few months if something new is coming and/or a price drop is coming.

 

My requirements are G-Sync and minimum of 3440x1440. I'm liking the ultra wide screens. My budget is around 900 but I'll take a deal if I can find it. I don't buy monitors very often. I want the next one to last for a while.

 

Any thoughts?

... and after Christmas you can have some sales.

 

With such a resolution and Gsync, I assume that you have a good Nvidia graphic card.

You would need at least a 1080 or 1080ti to run DCS well on that beast. "AOC Agon AG352UCG 35"

 

The sweet spot at the moment is 2560 x 1440P in DCS for larger missions / eye candy balance, it may get better for 4K as ED optimizes the sim more?

David, we have a pretty similar setup. I was looking at the same monitor your using. I just want to bump up the Rez for future builds.

I'm running a 7600k, 960pro m.2, and a 1070 right now at 1900x1200. Things are smooth. I don't mind turning settings down for the short term. With a newer monitor. I figure I will have the next monitor for the next 5 or upgrades of my current pic.

The display I linked came out in march and never had a price drop. It's at 900. The IPS displays are at 1200ish. I don't know if thats worth it. Anything else at this price point I should be looking at? I know if I dropped gsync, I could knock off 200$. I tested gsync out on some computers in a local microcenter and it was very noticeable for other games.
