34-inch 21:9 curved gaming monitor

This 34-inch VA panel uses a 1500R curvature and a 21:9 aspect ratio to wrap the image around your field of view. It delivers a 3440 x 1440 resolution with 99% sRGB coverage and a 4000:1 contrast ratio for deep blacks and vivid colour. A 165 Hz refresh rate and 1 ms response time keep motion sharp in fast-paced titles. AMD FreeSync support reduces tearing when paired with a compatible graphics card.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

Competitive gamers who want high refresh rates at ultrawide resolution will benefit from the 165 Hz panel and adaptive sync. Content creators working in the sRGB colour space gain a wide canvas with accurate gradients. Buyers who need built-in speakers or a USB hub should consider other models. Anyone requiring Thunderbolt connectivity or a higher brightness level for HDR work will not find those features here.

Capacity and headroom

The DisplayPort 1.4 connection unlocks the full 165 Hz at 3440 x 1440 for smooth gameplay. HDMI 2.0 is limited to 120 Hz at the same resolution, so DisplayPort is the preferred link for high-refresh gaming. The 300 cd/m² typical brightness handles SDR content well but does not meet typical HDR luminance targets. The 178° viewing angle preserves colour and contrast across wide seating positions.

Questions about this item

Do I need a graphics card with DisplayPort 1.4 to reach the 165 Hz refresh rate?

Yes, the DisplayPort 1.4 connection supports the full 165 Hz at 3440×1440, while HDMI 2.0 is limited to 120 Hz.

Will my older GPU that only has HDMI 2.0 still work with this 34-inch ultrawide?

It will work, but the HDMI 2.0 port caps the refresh rate at 120 Hz instead of the monitor’s maximum 165 Hz.

How can I verify the monitor is running at 165 Hz after I connect it?

Open the on-screen display menu and check the current refresh rate reading, or confirm 165 Hz in your operating system’s display settings.
