LG 34gp83a-B 34 Inch 21: 9 Ultragear Curved Qhd

For under $380 i think it’s going to be hard to beat this monitor. Especially since the 27gl850 is consistently out of stock. For the price you are getting:- essentially the same panel as the 27gl850- excellent response time + motion handling- officially certified by nvidia g-sync support- freesync- srgb color space- more money in your pocket- you can actually find this monitor in stockwhat’s missing from it’s bigger brother:- no usb ports- no wide gamut color support- no hdr (there isn’t really any true hdr on the 850 either so you’re not technically missing out)i didn’t notice any back light bleed, stuck pixels, or excessive ips glow on my unit. I almost hesitate to include pictures of the monitor when it’s on because the pictures do not accurately show what i’m seeing in person. In the pictures it looks as if there may be some excessive glow in the top right and bottom left of the screen but i assure you that i absolutely do not see that in person and only via my camera. You’re not going to get the deepest blacks but it still looks great and if you’re not nitpicking, i don’t think you’re really going to notice it either. The color pops nicely though i recommend setting the brightness to at least 75-80 to get the most out of the picture. Tested out g-sync with my gtx 1070 and have had no problems. G-sync is on by default so you won’t even have to go into your settings and mess with it.

Edit: got one that has minimal blb compared to this one. Now i don’t struggle by looking at left corner of the monitor while watching movies or anything. Ips glow exists but blb is minimal compared to the last one. Will update the picture later on. Colors are beautiful, response time is great, g-sync works out of the box flawlessly, gaming experience got much better with this monitor. Highly recommended (assuming you get a good model)—————————————————————————————————————————cons: seems i lost the ‘panel lottery’ as i noticed the blb when playing dark themed games or watching movies. Pros: pretty much everything else, it is a great monitor. Blb was so bad i had to return it. Doesn’t feel good as i waited more than a month for this monitor to arrive.

I write this review as the former owner of 3 asus pg279qs and one pg279qz. I was drawn to this realm of the monitor market because i do not believe that 4k displays are worth it at this particular point in time. As far as i see it, the majority are a compromise as the bandwidth requirements for running 4:4:4 chroma subsampling, an extended color gamut, a refresh rate of 144 hz and beyond, and a resolution of 3840×2160 all at the same time will be much better served by dp 1. 1 (proper hdr wouldn’t hurt either). Although it could be argued that achieving 144 frames at 1440p is more resource intensive than 60 frames at 2160p, i believe the experience to be the most immersive, at least until 144+ frames becomes viable at 4k. Unfortunately, based on the price to performance ratio trend of the current generation of graphics cards (nvidia’s in specific), it is going to be a long, long time until that is achievable at a reasonable price. All things aside, i can state with confidence that i’ve found my sweet spot for monitors in the form of lg’s 27gl850. It has addressed all of the quality control concerns that i’ve experienced throughout my quest of trying to obtain a high refresh rate, 1440p ips-type display. Seeing as this is an lg product, the monitor can rightfully be referred to as having an ips (in-plane switching) panel as this is their proprietary term for the technology that produces the wider color gamut and viewing angles.

Don’t cheap out and buy the $250 viotek ips like i did. Spend the extra money and buy this monitor. It’s free of backlight strobing, it has very minimal ips glow, it has freesync and supports g-sync, and the picture is fantastic. It’s a near perfect monitor, but there were a few things i had to do first when setting this up:1. Go to lg’s site and download the drivers. It uses the same drivers as the 27gl850. Despite the note in the box that says it’s been calibrated, it has not. I found some calibration settings for this monitor on reddit and i will post them below.

Disclaimer for fair context here:this is my first true 144hz, 1440p, ips panel experience. Up until now, i’ve only ever had descriptions and seen photos (on less than ideal monitors) of what to expect. So my review here may almost certainly be biased in terms of extremes for both pros and cons. With that out of the way, let me just say. Wow, being my first experience with an ips, i was absolutely blown away with just how much the colors explode off the screen compared to a tn panel. You get used to it very quickly but you definitely have those moments where you’re just like ‘damn, that looks really good. ‘the exact same can be said about the refresh rate. If you’re coming from 60hz, the difference is absolutely staggering. It’s noticeable the moment you slide the cursor across the screen. It’ll give you goosebumps at first.
