Great Monitor for Gaming/General Use (HP X34 UWQHD)

HP X34 UWQHD Monitor I bought this monitor for gaming especially sim and racing games (iRacing, BeamNG, Forza etc) and it works great. The picture quality is really good and a huge improvement over what I had before (Acer 1680 x 1050 TN monitor, wow!). A few things about the monitor that I found after a few days of use: -- Use Freesync! This monitor has Freesync and I was concerned as my PC has an Nvidia GPU (GTX 1060 6GB) but without it it looks much worse. Lots of weird on-screen ghosting issues, but everything looks and feels smoother with freesync on. -- Adjust your monitor settings as there are some built-in settings as well as some presets to get you started. This can make the picture quality even better for what you're using. For iRacing I was able to improve my racing bike a lot because I went from 47 degrees FOV to 84 degrees. It made me more alert and even better resolution too, I can see better what's going on in front of me. -- For general use, this monitor is also great. My productivity has improved a bit since I can fit 4 pages on one screen and view them all at the same time. This makes the job much better and easier. -- I was a little apprehensive about buying this monitor at first since there is literally nothing about it on the internet, either here or on YT. But now, after using it and considering the price, I know I made the right purchase.
