    This is an amazing monitor for my Mac mini m1 (34 inch IPS AOC U34G3X). First, it comes with an HDMI and DP cable. I used an HDMI cable to connect to my m1 mini and it gets a 100Hz refresh rate which is great. I tried 3 other cables to see if the frequency could be increased and none of them worked above 100Hz. If you want to use this with HDMI just use the cable that came with it or one you already have. I also bought a USB-C to DisplayPort cable that gets me up to 144Hz just fine. It's not…

    Excellent monitor in features and specs

    It's a very good screen for the price: 34-inch, UWQHD (3440 x 1440), 165MHz refresh rate, fast response time, but it takes some effort to set up. The display is tiltable and can be moved up and down. Bright bright display, so far no screen tearing. Shown alongside a 17" laptop display. Note. I have a Prometheus XVII laptop with an i9-12900 processor, an RTX 3080Ti graphics card with 1 Thunderbolt 4 port (DisplayPort connection is through the onboard 3080Ti GPU, no dedicated GPU) and 1 HDMI 2.1…

    AOC CU34G3S 34 ": my review

    Arrived on 1st September 2022 31st October after I turned off my computer and 3-5 minutes after the AOC logo appeared then every 10 seconds after that it turns on and off, tried everything even changing the Cable DP and you can't use other power cords because most of them are basically universal, not for one monitor, it's unique. I have an Acer Nitro XV272U Pbmiiprzx 27" WQHD (2560 x 1440) IPS G-SYNC compatible monitor, 144Hz, 1ms VRB, VESA DisplayHDR400 certified, DCI-P3, Delta E <2, so far

    The colors are very effective: my rating

    I previously had an MSI g24c (gj monitor, I no longer buy MSI parts at all). The colors weren't great, the only thing that impressed me was the curve. The monitor let me down after a month of gaming, took it to a LAN party. After the readjustment, there were streaks of dead pixels all over the screen. I figured this monitor needed to warm up or stay plugged in for about 2 hours for the screen to fully display again. I left it for the next 2 years and forgot about the problem. It just happened…

    Reliable monitor for less than $300

    Here's what I like about it: HDR color is bright and vibrant without being overly overwhelming, although you'll have to go into the display settings and tweak it to find the right setting for your setup. The curve is amazing. I had 24" for 1500R and going to 27" for 1000R is just great. All I had to do was move it about an inch away from my old monitor. I have excellent FOV/peripherals in FPS games. I'm using an RTX 3070TI and running everything at max 1440p and not getting any…

    Don't forget to use vsync if you use gsync

    Various video settings are available for multiple use. Enabling GSync disables these video modes, but it's of great use in gaming if your graphics card supports it. Don't forget to enable vsync or vsync if you're playing with gsync enabled, as this will help reduce the strain on the monitor from trying to achieve frame rates higher than its refresh rate.

    Great monitor for gaming!

    I have to say I was skeptical for the price but I couldn't be happier with this purchase. Also, no tools were required for assembly, it was up and running in less than 3 minutes, and I was able to easily customize it to my liking. Will definitely buy again and looks great playing Escape from Tarkov.

    Super tiny - my new review

    This is not at all what I would have expected from a 34 inch TV, if I had known how tall it was I would not have bought it. Connectivity options includes 1x DisplayPort 1.4, 2x HDMI 2.0, and 1x audio out (3.5mm) for convenience..

    I wanted to love this monitor.

    My monitor arrived at DOA and nothing I did was display an image on the screen. The power light comes on and that's it. Tried lowest frequency, nothing, lowest resolution, nothing. Tried HDMI on my laptop, nothing. I also couldn't view the OSD with or without the video cable connected. Opened a 'ticket' with AOC hoping they saw this behavior and that I could do something. It took AOC support three and a half days to send me an answer that was nothing more than a template. It was at this point…

    Exceptional ultra wide monitor!

    Wow. Very good widescreen monitor. Upgrade from 32 inch flat screen. easy installation. When properly calibrated and tuned, the screen is very beautiful. The only negative is the menu buttons, they should have been joystick type but they have aoc i-menu software version which is more convenient. A 1000R curve is what you need. clear and sharp display. Stable stand with adjustable height and tilt. Use the supplied cable for the display port. Overall, this is an exceptional ultra-wide monitor.
