Pros

This monitor is crazy good, but I'd like to explore a few things before making a recommendation.

- The monitor is very large, so make sure you have the space. It takes the entirety of my deck, and the thing is HEAVY so if you're looking at mounting it, it's likely that the majority of mounts won't work.

- There's a lot more games that don't support 32:9 that do, so you will end up playing games with black bars. A large amount of AAA games support 21:9, so you'll still get the ultra-wide experience.

- Get a copy of DisplayFusion Pro; you'll need it. Managing windows to snap into different locations will be difficult without using a software like this. There's a lot of sales on this application, as usually it can cost £30. G2A have licenses for £15.

- Get a hand. Putting this monitor in place is difficult work, so a spare person will help a lot.

- If you're looking at playing games at the ultra-ultra-wide resolution to take full advantage of the screen real estate, understand that it's graphically intensive. I'm currently using a NVIDIA 2070 SUPER, and anything below this would struggle massively. Yes, it's an expensive upgrade, but it's a big monitor, and the graphics card is going to have to output to this.

- Colour on this monitor is good, but not stupidly accurate for things like print/design. Keep this in mind if you're looking to do design work, but most people won't notice this.

- It's FreeSync 2, meaning that it passes some of the feature set needed such as HDR. The darks look brilliant, the brights look decent. It's not 1000 nits, meaning it's not completely true HDR, but it's really good.

- No. There's no VGA, no DVI. It's not the standard anymore, so please don't expect it. Converting the cable will impact performance, so look to upgrade your video output (graphics card) if you want good quality high performance video out.

- I'm happy to answer any questions you have on it. I purchased it, and I'm not selling it.

- The back of the stand has a metal post, meaning you can't push it all the way back. This is expected, and the weight of the monitor needs some serious grounding.

Cons

Unfortunately this doesn’t seem to be a good quality product, the monitor flickers badly and distorts the image above 60hz when watching full screen video on any web browser or sometimes just scrolling down pages in windows programs.

Tested on different graphics cards to make sure it wasn’t a problem on my end but the problem persisted regardless of graphics card.

A great monitor on paper but when a monitor that’s supposed to be 240hz can’t comfortably deliver anything above 60hz then it defeats the purpose of having a monitor like this.
