I'll probably be getting either the Asus ROG PG279Q (27" gsync 2K 144hz IPS,) or PG27AQ (27" gsync 4K 60hz IPS,) whenever they release.

100Hz is about right. That's what I push with 2 980 TIs @ 3440x14440p at most.

I'm thinking we'll see 75hz in the Gsync version too. From the TFTCentral review it sounded like a limitation of the LG panel that keeps the refresh rate where it is. I seriously doubt they'd use a different panel for the only-slightly different Gsync version.

Well, curiously TFT said the GSYNC would have ULMB. I thought that only worked at 100Hz? Still wondering if the GSYNC module will assist in the overdrive circuit. I did order the Dell u3415w yesterday while it was $809. It comes in next week for some reason even with two day shipping. I may very well be happy with that and it will be $500 less. If I feel I need the GSYNC after getting it, I'll use it until the others come out and assess where I would be on selling it and picking up the newest.

Be sure to post some pictures and your impressions when you get it. I'd like to see the form factor in a real setting. I'm probably going to buy the Acer, even if it is 75hz. I'm done with 1080p, even in surround.

Just got in the monitor. I am really liking it. Only hitting 46 FPS on Witcher in ultra with hair works, but it feels smooth, oddly. Will tinker some more this week and see. Hits 75Hz, but haven't tested for frame skipping yet. Now thinking rather than spend the $500 on the GSYNC model may either wait it out for next card gen or apply that money towards getting a second Titan. Back light bleed is there but minimal. Only see it with black screen and even then not very noticeable while gaming in the dark. Can't see it all with colors on the screen. I am pleased in that respect. This thing is a monster as far as size. Colors are fantastic. Initial impression... this is the monitor size and resolution to own. I love it.

So you overclocked it? Very nice. I forget what display you were coming from, would you recommend this over Nvidia Surround/Eyefinity? Also, you might want to hold off on buying another Titan X until Windows 10 comes out in a few weeks. If the rumors about DX12 being able to mix and match video cards is true, you can get a 980ti and save some cash. Also, don't forget to calibrate your new display: http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/articles/icc_profiles.htm

I overclocked through the NVIDIA panel. I did not modify the monitor file. Worked without a hitch. I am coming from a 29" 21:9 monitor. I haven't actually run a surround system, but I can't imagine needing it after using this. This panel, at it's size, spans my peripheral vision nicely when sitting at my desk. And having multiple monitors means definitely needing SLI. Not jumping on SLI yet. It is a consideration now, though. EDIT: I should say I haven't run a surround system to game with. I use anywhere from 2 to 6 monitors at work depending on the setup.

So, an update now that I have had more time with the u3415w. I like this monitor. I really do. I have decided, however, that demanding games with eye candy need either SLI or GSYNC. Period. In W3, turning off AA doesn't make a huge difference in visual appearance. It also doesn't make a huge difference in FPS. I can hit 60FPS in some areas, but generally I get between 46 and 53. It often seems smooth, but I am starting to notice the stutter on occasion. And now that I am seeing it, I see it more. Playing SWTOR or less demanding games I can hit the 60FPS mark with no issues and it looks great. Now I have to decide if I want to wait for the Acer or ASUS monitors and spend the extra $500 or put that towards another card... sigh. On a side note, I got the opportunity to play around with a Samsung 40" JU6500 4K TV. It is jaw dropping with the 4:4:4 UHD color and the glossy screen. It is absolutely beautiful. The only downside was that I had to be careful of the light sources behind me because of reflections, but I have never seen something that amazed me as it did for the visuals. Well, another downside and the fact that I would need SLI on it as well. I did play around with a custom resolution that provided the black bars above and below and ran in 3440X1440 and adapted to that well in just a few minutes. And it is only $699. I just don't know what I want to do now.

Hmm, well a 4k display would be more future-proof, but I'm still sold on the Acer X34 for the aspect ratio though. Like you said, needs GSYNC, and if I'm going from 120hz to 75hz, I want GSYNC. I just don't see how you're having framerate issues with 3440x1440 and a Titan X. I'm running 6030x1080 (bezel corrected) and I'm hitting 60-75fps on AAA titles. I don't use anything other than FXAA, but that doesn't bother me. Well, except for AC:Unity which everyone knows is a horribly optimized game. I get 30-40fps in that. But in Shadows of Mordor i was getting the same 60-75hz.

Most other games are doing fine. It is Witcher 3 that is the biggest culprit. Dying Light has some issues, but that is the game optimization as well. I'm going to turn off everything this weekend and start adding things back in to see where my big hit occurs on W3. I find it a bit puzzling as well. I am pretty much sold on the 21:9. It is fantastic. I really want to like this Dell enough to not spend the other money. But I also want to be extremely happy when playing. That is why I am spending this money in the first place, yes?. So, I may just have to go with the extra expense of the Acer/ASUS. I mentioned that Samsung as a matter of sharing. The screen was gorgeous. Fantastic colors, no IPS glow, and zero backlight bleed. But there is absolutely no way to not have SLI with that in my opinion.

With an overclock of 100MHz on my card, I can pull right at 60FPS on ultra in Witcher 3 on the u3415w. I can hit that without the OC if I tweak out a bunch of stuff. I ran SWTOR at 75Hz today. Went well. Still trying to decide whether or not to get the X34. I really don't like the Predator labeling on it at all, either The X34 shows availability on the Acer Australia site for August 28. It does not appear on the US site yet at all. It still does not have a Hz rating on it on the digital river site though all the other specs are listed. Curious.

According to questions answered by the 'Acer Service Team' on Amazon, the X34 will be 75Hz like the XR341CK.

CoercionShaman Q: Is the g-sync range on the x34 the same as the freesync range on this model? A:The refresh rate on the XR341CK is 23-80 Hz, and the X34 is the same, but it appears that the G-Sync feature on the X34 is overclocked and the refresh rate can be pushed to 100 Hz. Acer Service Team answered on July 22, 2015
This is just a rollercoaster ride of emotion. That makes me hopeful but I'm a little confused as to what it actually means. The panel is 23-80hz, but the G-Sync feature is overclocked to 100hz? What does that mean? TFTCentral will sort it out, but at least there's still hope of hitting 100hz. Honestly, if it just got to the 85-96hz range I'd be completely happy. That's where I think there starts to be diminishing returns in the fluidity per hertz range.

I think it is poor wording on their part in answering this post. I think they should have answered it as 23-100Hz. In fact, they said that the FreeSync refresh is 23-80Hz on the CR341CK that is reported as a 75Hz panel so they should have said 23-75Hz! I am rather hopeful it is 100Hz. If you remember, the rep at the trade show had announced it to be 100Hz without question (and the G-Sync was on dispay). It is also announced that that there will ULMB which requires 100Hz (or is it 85Hz)? There has also been discussion of G-Sync vs. FreeSync in that G-Sync is actually able to drive the refresh rate and pixel voltage directly through the module and that it could then, in theory, provide a higher overclock on the same equipment when compared to FreeSync.

CoercionShaman I trust TFT Central. 100Hz confirmed now. Stock in early October. https://twitter.com/TFTCentral/status/626440504037756928
That's awesome, can't wait for the reviews. The AMD guys really got hosed on this one, but whatever, we'll pay a higher price for the 100hz. Completely worth it now in my opinion.

Some users on the European forums are reporting that the Predator X34 has shipped to them. I can not verify the validity except to say that a couple of German sites do show it shipping now when you visit them. The ASUS PG348Q is supposed to be either Christmas or first of the year release according to latest rumors. As a side note, I am still liking the u3415w that I purchased. It is doing well at 75Hz and I don't see any latency or ghosting issues in the games I play. It could be noticeable in fast moving FPS titles. It is on sale at Amazon right now for $783 making it about $550 cheaper than the anticipated price of the X34 when including taxes. I have a feeling that I will be on the next generation of these monitors when they start releasing, though.

Good to know. We should be seeing some reviews soon then. I'm all in on the Acer X34, don't see the benefit of waiting for the Asus.

I would agree that there is no benefit to waiting, either. There might be a slight amount of price shifting, but I don't think so. Even if it did, you would lose a few months of use for a minor savings.
