It's so good monitor and elegant. 
Dell prepare something similar too and I think this best shape for gaming.

    It's only 1440 pixels high unfortunately.  My next monitor/TV is going to be 2160 pixels high.  Now if they had a 21:9 version in 2160 (5040x2160), I would be drooling right now.

    I have no need for a monitor that can completely cripple most GPUs an make them play less than stellar frame rates. If 60+ fps was easily maintained on **** x 2160, sure it would logically make sense, but since very little I'd supported at this point, I will wait for GPUs that can drive it, and the upgrade both. Until then, it feels like a waste of money to me.

    I bet that stand has no adjustment just like their current 4K display which looks eerily similar. Style does not come before functionality... boo Samsung, you should know better.

    We will know more after CES, but probably not adjustments. I just hope for Vesa mount. Who needs a stand when you can mount it somewhere better, lol.

    Actually, we should read the article. It clearly states, "The SE790C comes with a height-adjustable stand and hidden VESA bracket, too."

    So, yeah.

    I like the trend of this 21:9 format for PC gaming, but should I get an XB1 at some point, I am concerned about the screen stretching or cropping.  That being said, I haven't made up my mind.
     
    Scarlet-TechI will wait for GPUs that can drive it
    You do realize this is a myth?  There are two ways of looking at this:
    1. By the time the hardware comes, you would have moved onto another game that has higher hardware requirements, forcing you to wait longer and/or just complain about it.  You might as well just stop getting new games to ensure upcoming GPUs will drive whatever resolution, since modern games need more than just one modern high-end GPU at such high resolutions.  
    2. Just about any game from at least 6 years or older will run MDS (max detail smooth) on integrated video, or the equivalent dedicated card from back in the day whether it's a GTX280 or HD4870-- but an enthusiast or anyone keeping up with tech will not wait that long.  You will not wait for GPUs that can drive a 2160p resolution.

    For Intel processors, 0.122 x TDP = Continuous Amps at 12v [source].

    I am at the point in this forum, to where I am going to just ignore posts like this. Yes, I understand. No, I don't ported games like far cry 4, and such, all that often.

    The 980ti / Titan II series may be better, or whatever come next. Basically, this is a double wide monitor, and if video cards have a struggle pushing 4 K so glad monitor, then this would be silly to buy as a 4k gaming monitor, but would make sense for photo and video editing. That is all. The conversations of constantly nay saying everyone that mentions wanting video card to push 4k is getting old and drawn out. I will upgrade before then but I won't waste money on 4k monitors u til they are the price of 1080p monitors. Then they will make sense.

    Scarlet-Tech,
     
    I am curious, which games do you play that you are having difficulties keeps 60FPS with your setup of  I7-5960x @ 4.4ghz &  3x 780Ti Classifieds listed in your rig?
    Which monitor and resolution are you using currently to play games?
     
    Thank you,
    Monnie

    No games have that issue.  That is why I wouldn't go to 4k, which 780ti's don't have the VRam from. Currently, I have 2 1080p 60hz monitors, and waiting for GSync 1440p monitors to come down in price. No point in paying double for anything.  Nothing is worth double the MSRP.

    I am with you there.  I would LOVE LOVE LOVE a FALD  21:9 2160p about 65"-70" with a display port 60hz 4:4:4 chroma for all my computing,htpc,gaming needs all in one. I would go buy it today.

    I would love for ultra wide (21:9) to replace the current 16:9 monitors.

    I've been following this monitor for a while and will be buying this or the Dell version (depends on how this VA panel deals with black crush) ASAP. I was really hoping for an Xmas release like they had planned, but alas that never happened. 
     
    That said...

    A superlative ergonomic design that also delivers on comfort and convenience
    With thoughtful design and engineering, the SE790C is much more than a monitor with stunning looks. It features everything from an adjustable stand to VESA mounting support and a wide range of connectivity options.
    • HAS Stand: The SE790C’s curved metallic HAS stand is ergonomically designed, allowing for flexible height adjustment up to 100 mm.
    • VESA 100 x 100: With support for VESA 100 x 100, you can easily mount it on any wall.

    • Connectivity: Access a full range of connectivity options with 2 HDMI ports, 1 display port, and 4 USB 3.0 ports. 
    • Premium Design: Built with a premium metallic frame and elevated by a curved T-shaped stand.
     

    Also, I will never go back to using a 16:9/16:10 monitor. Even my TVs look like square fossils to me now. Cant wait to jump from 29" to 34".

    I ran Pcars (this is a graphically demanding game) in 4K and vram wasn't an issue, but nearly at almost 3gigs, at 21:9 this monitor in ultra high res. wouldn't be 4K, but 5K and I would bet that even with 4GB vram it would be OK.

    Looks like market start to offer Curved Monitors with AMD Free Sync Technology...
     
    LG To Introduce World's First 21:9 Gaming Monitor With AMD FreeSync At CES 2015
     
    http://www.techpowerup.com/208453/lg-to-introduce-worlds-first-21-9-gaming-monitor-with-amd-freesync-at-ces-2015.html
     
    But we still can't get G-Sync under 300$, I mean G-Sync kit is not available at all or you need to destroy warranty on monitor if you want to install. From other side they force us on specific monitors with G-Sync and our choose will be very limited.
    I can't wait review to people compare Free Sync with G-Sync...
    Everything looks like NVIDIA made several bad moves and offers for their customers.
    What if Free Sync work same as G-Sync what will NVIDIA to do than.  
    I'm glad because I didn't need monitor and didn't pay ROG 27"
    because look bad compared to Curved 34" monitors from Samsung and Dell.
    NVIDIA become choice of rich people more and more...
    I love NVIDIA but I will not payed crippled models only because that's NVIDIA card if AMD offer much stronger full unlocked for same money.
    You see ROG Swift monitor how much cost only because G-Sync, and first price was much lower.
    Their decision to force us on specific models even if we have better and cheaper choice only because G-Sync is doomed and small number of people will done something like that if review recognize similarity between Free Sync and G-Sync.

    If NVIDIA allow and we can use LG monitor and enjoy in Free Sync.
    But NVIDIA had other plans, we need to pay 1200$ for ROG SWIFT with G-Sync.
    I will pay but in second life. NVIDIA, NVIDIA, your throne is shaking... 
    I even hear news that NVIDIA will not launched Tesla/Quadro in Maxwell architecture at all.
    It's good because I bought GK110 only is not good because no enough memory to hold until Pascal.
    Volta in 2017/2018. Even I hear no Stacked RAM with NVIDIA before Pascal.
    In the beginning of 2013 you laugh to AMD with G-Sync and Titan... but now AMD will be lag free before us, without paying anything,
    LAG FREE/STUTTER FREE FOR FREE   and with Stacked RAM.
    And NVIDIA will be behind, same as GDDR3 vs GDDR5 with worse drivers ever and coil whine, black screen and 300$ worth G-Sync kit.
     
    I hear one crazy NVIDIA fan boy say for LG monitor "That's not true, that's AMD marketing"...xexe. With army of such customers NVIDIA could do what they want and that's not good for customers who want to pay real price for real improvements.

    It's good because I bought GK110 only is not good because no enough memory to hold until Pascal.
    Volta in 2017/2018. Even I hear no Stacked RAM with NVIDIA before Pascal.
    In the beginning of 2013 you laugh to AMD with G-Sync and Titan... but now AMD will be lag free before us, without paying anything,
    LAG FREE/STUTTER FREE FOR FREE   and with Stacked RAM.
    And NVIDIA will be behind, same as GDDR3 vs GDDR5 with worse drivers ever and coil whine, black screen and 300$ worth G-Sync kit.
     
    I hear one crazy NVIDIA fan boy say for LG monitor "That's not true, that's AMD marketing"...xexe. With army of such customers NVIDIA could do what they want and that's not good for customers who want to pay real price for real improvements.


    Competition is good, but AMD needs to produce this time. Lets see what Free Sync can bring to the table. I know it's nice to dream, but the question with AMD is when? How long is it going to take Free Sync and Mantle to be widely used and will it be enough at that time? AMD still needs to make better and more efficient GPUs to make it worth it, but I'm glad their still trying.

    Screen look like dream.
    That's really strange how market know for two week completely to change orientation and what customers plan.
    From 27" and higher resolution suddenly we have 34" Curved Screen and probably many people who bought expensive monitors now wish this.
    They didn't launch in 4K resolution only because plan to offer for 50% higher price similar monitor only in full 4K soon, not immediately.
    Samsung Curved monitor is 1920x1080, that's pointless investment in such low resolution now, LG...better 4K, but it's very close.

    The Samsung monitor is 3440x1440, not 1080. Also, a 21:9 4k/5k monitor would be too niche to make. The extra pixels on a standard 16:9 4k monitor is already too much for 99% of the systems out there, adding an additional 33% on top of that would cripple almost any system trying to run a recent game in maxed out settings. IMO AOC, Samsung, LG and Dell are smart for going with WQHD resolutions.

    These are getting closer... Once they hit a true 120hz, I am all in. Until then... Surround is working just fine...
     
    I think 34"-38" is Puuuuuuuurfect. 
     
    Wife and I are getting the new Samsung 4K 65" in March/April for our new TV... A lot of 4K content is finally coming available...

    The thing is though, Dell and Apple already have a 5K (5120 x 2880) available.  So a 5K 21:9 version (5040x2160) isn't out of the picture since they are making displays with that amount of pixels wide.  Granted they are still super expensive, just like 4K, but given time they will come down in price like always.

    And those monitors aren't aimed at gamers but rather users like medical and photography professionals. I highly doubt many of those 5k monitors are being used to primarily run games. We are also talking 2x (or more) the cost of thsee already super pricey 21:9s.

    Anyway my point wasnt that similar resolutions don't exist already, but rather the market for them doesnt (yet). IMO we should revisit this when a single card solution exists that can run maxed current AAA titles at 60+ FPS in 4k+.

    I am at the point in this forum, to where I am going to just ignore posts like this. Yes, I understand. No, I don't ported games like far cry 4, and such, all that often.



    +1 - This is why I don't post here much any more.  Every time I voice my opinion on maximizing my own personal gaming experience I don't need to be told that I'm a moron (in what I imagine to be the geekiest and most condescending voice possible).  "You do realize..."  Please.  
     
    And yes, GPUs that comfortably drive 2160p resolutions are coming.  This is all about consumer demand, and while that doesn't necessarily exist at levels that make capable GPUs viable to produce yet, it almost certainly will.  We're in the very early stages of 4K adaption - just like we were once in the very early stages of the HD revolution.  Not sure anyone has to worry any more about whether their new GPU will be up to the task for HD, but they once were.

    Yes but Samsung sell for 400$ and 27" LED Curved Monitor 1920x1080. 
    I thought on something like that, that's pointless no matter if they used Curved screen.
    Soon more models will show up and finally 4K. I doubt 4K Curved Monitor will more than ASUS ROG Swift.
    Maybe 1000-1100$.
    Linus say LG 34" IPS is fantastic for gaming.

    Wantwantwant... WHY IS THIS NOT FOR SALE YET?

    Because most electronics are launched at CES. Wait a few days and hope it's not a paper launch.

    It's only 1440 pixels high unfortunately.  My next monitor/TV is going to be 2160 pixels high.  Now if they had a 21:9 version in 2160 (5040x2160), I would be drooling right now.



     
    I am with you there.  I would LOVE LOVE LOVE a FALD  21:9 2160p about 65"-70" with a display port 60hz 4:4:4 chroma for all my computing,htpc,gaming needs all in one. I would go buy it today.
