34-inch gaming monitor featuring a curved 3800R in-plane switching display with NVIDIA® G-Sync™, wide viewing angles and incredible resolution.

Iconic design is in our blood.

Looks that kill: A premium, polished silver finish and ultramodern design reflect our commitment to sophisticated appearance, unparalleled quality and gargantuan gaming.

We focused on the details so you can focus on the screen:

Your monitor features an ultrathin 3-sided bezel for expansive screen space. Our unique step-venting details help dissipate heat and maximize performance. And we added the unearthly glow of Triad lighting to complete the monitor that’s better-looking than it has to be.

Curve your enthusiasm:

Completely immerse yourself with a sweeping, curved infinity display that takes you deeper into the game and a 21:9 aspect ratio that makes every vantage point epic. The curved screen maximizes your field of vision, reducing eye movement, so you can stay comfortably focused on the game longer.

The competition can eat your dust.

Expand your horizons: In-plane switching panels mean a wide viewing angle from any vantage point and incredibly vivid, detailed color reproduction from wherever you are in the room.

Get real:

A 2560 X 1080 WFHD display delivers sharp, rich graphics. So you’ll see every blade of grass, every glint of steel, every drop of sweat more vividly, intensely and richly than ever before.

By the time this sentence is over:

Refresh rates so fast you won’t have time to worry about lag. Bring on even faster responsiveness with 144Hz native [or up to 160Hz overclocked] 4ms refresh rates to max out on the highest, fastest level gameplay that looks and feels super smooth.

Synched up and ready to roll:

NVIDIA® G-SYNC™ technology displays full frames only when the monitor is ready to display them. This means your screen frames load so fast, you can say goodbye to distortions—like tearing and artifacts—and get used to smooth, vibrant images.

Designed to beat the competition

An on-screen display (OSD) gives you a gaming edge. Choose from six game modes including three factory preset modes and three customizable modes. The status of your key functions and pre-set modes are easy to track or change.

Every seat is the best seat in the house

The new swivel-hinge combo design supports tilt, swivel and height-adjustability so wherever you feel most comfortable, you’ll still have the best possible vantage point. It’s ultimate comfort for endless gameplay.

Plug and play

Multiple quick-access ports mean endless connectivity options and easy set-up, so your setup is just how you want it, wherever you want it.
