Acer's New Curved 34-Inch Predator X34 Gaming Monitor Is Stunning

Acer's Predator line of gaming monitors is receiving a unique new monitor in the form of the Predator X34, the first 34" curved monitor to feature Nvidia G-Sync. This monitor also comes with some pretty impressive specs that allow for fantastic graphics. Obviously the most notable thing is the Nvidia G-Sync, which is a display technology that eliminates tearing and screen stuttering during gameplay.

In addition to that, G Sync also improves input lag, meaning you can no longer complain about the lag killing you in Call of Duty. In addition to that, the monitor also has a 60Hz refresh rate that can be overclocked to 100Hz, which allows it to produce more frames per second and minimize motion blur.

The Predator X34 from Acer also comes with a QHD 3,440 x 1,440 pixel resolution IPS screen that has a 21:9 aspect ratio, which puts it in a practically new category for ultrawide monitors. According to Acer, this monitor also has 100% sRGB coverage, allowing for an accurate range of colors, and a 178-degree viewing angle.

If you want to get the absolute most comfort from your Predator X34's design then you will love the ergonomic options that are included. The monitor has the ability to tilt back 5 degrees and forward 35 degrees while the height can be adjusted up to 5 inches. If you want to wall mount this monster then you will like to know that the Predator X34 is VESA-compliant and comes with Acer's EyeProtect and ComfyView technology, which filter harmful blue light and reduce background reflections in order to lessen eye fatigue.

And while the curved design might appear to be just a fancy gimmick it's not, especially when it comes to gaming. For gamers, a curved screen provides an immersive experience that usually takes multiple monitors to recreate. The curve positions the edges of the screen in your peripheral vision, which simulates what it's like to see your real-life surroundings out of the corners of your eyes.

Even though this monitor is new, Acer is no stranger to curved monitors. Earlier this year the company announced the Predator Z35, a 35-inch curved monitor with Nvidia G-Sync along with a whole host of top-of-the-line gaming monitors. The Predator X34 is currently available in the United States via Acer's online store for $1,300. No pricing or availability have been announced for Europe or Australia, but expect the prices to be around £850 and AU$1,810, respectively.

PC Gamers Can Now Game With 4K Resolutions While Thumbing Nose At Console Gamers Yet Again

4K is literally taking over, much like DVD took over VHS. Pretty soon, 4K is going to be your only option when it comes to screens, whether they be on tablets, phones, televisions or computer monitors. When it comes to the gaming community, there is a division as to which is better, console gaming or PC gaming. While console gaming may have a more mainstream following, there is still an incredible amount of PC gamers out there. And if there's one thing PC gamers have over console gamers, it's that they are not hindered by resolution. Even with the current crop of next-gen consoles, gamers on the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 are struggling to hit full 1080p HD resolutions with their games. On the flip side PC gamers are already starting to branch out into 4K resolution gaming thanks to new hardware that is both powerful and expensive.

4K laptops have already begun shipping to consumers around the world with the first one out of the gate being Toshiba's 15" Satellite model. Apple has already entered the market with a 4K-friendly Mac Pro desktop, though a lot of PCs are capable of pushing resolutions higher than 1080p with Nvidia's newest generation of 8000-series GPUs. However, it doesn't matter how high you push the resolution if the monitor you are playing on can't run higher than 1080p. That's where 4K monitors come into play. These devices are similar to their TV siblings, meaning they are still new and still very expensive.

Monoprice is known for having very reasonably priced PC and AV accessories and looks to be taking that business model into the 4K monitor world with the announcement of its newest model, which looks to be cheaper than some comparable models that are currently available.

The new monitor is Monoprice's 28" UHD (ultra-high definition) monitor, which runs at a ridiculous 3840x2160 pixel resolution. The monitor became available for preorder last month and is available now from the company's website with a limit of 10 per customer (because obviously you can afford more than one). Current pricing for the monitor, which is dubbed the UHD CrystalPro 4K monitor, is $550 on Monoprice's website. At the beginning of the year comparable monitors like this were priced in excess of $1,000, though recent price cuts by both Dell and Samsung have helped in driving prices down.

Physically, the UHD CrystalPro 4K is relatively thin and comes with a brushed-metal bottom bezel as well as a sharper look than some of the other budget displays. This monitor also comes with three HDMI ports and a DisplayPort. Performance reports have come in from all over the place, but one that should put it into perspective comes from CNET, who tested the monitor on a 4K-ready gaming PC. Playing Battlefield 4 at full 4K resolution with "ultra" graphics settings CNET acknowledged that the game "looked and played fantastic."

The majority of PC gamers won't be making the switch to 4K anytime soon, much like a majority of console gamers didn't switch to the Xbox One or PlayStation 4 immediately. However, should hardware prices continue to drop like they are, PC gamers will have more of an incentive to make the switch, plus it will also give them even more bragging rights over their console gamer foes. If you have the money to drop on 4K then check out Monoprice's website here to purchase the UHD CrystalPro 4K gaming monitor.
