Well said ...
Hopefully people have more respect for G-Sync and G-Sync Ultimate platforms ..
Two biggest things G-Sync & G-Sync Ultimate has over Freesync & Freesync 2 is (quality control and Variable Overdrive.) Those two things alone make G-Sync superior to Freesync & Freesync 2......the only good thing about Freesync & Freesync 2 is that it's very cheap.. At quality loss cost.
Best on the planet top four 21:9 gaming monitors.. For 2019
G-Sync Ultimate
- ROG SWIFT PG35VQ
- Acer Predator 35X
- AOC Agon AG353UCG
G-Sync
- LG UltraGear 38GL950G-B
Very hard finding any other 21:9 Ultra Wide Gaming monitors that can compete at equal levels ..
LG UltraGear 38GL950G-B has a very unique product with Nano IPS 1ms display over the other 3 VA 2ms..
I wish the LG UltraGear 38GL950G-B was HDR 600 instead of HDR 400 that's my biggest concern about 38GL950G-B lacking brightness .. But hey you saved a $1000. Just not having G-Sync Ultimate ..
Quality control relating to G-Sync is just that... ensuring G-Sync works, no flickering etc. It has nothing to do with the inherent issues that ALL IPS panels suffer from, namely glow and also bleed (although any monitor can have the latter). Bleed SHOULD be a QC issue, but more and more monitor manufacturers (and retailers) are refusing to acknowledge it as an issue.
There are already pictures floating around of the 38GL950G with bad bleed and glow, so any suggestion this monitor will be any different is already redundant... you MIGHT get a good one, but it's the same panel lottery as buying ANY monitor, nothing to do with QC.
Yes, this monitor has some nice specs, although those aren't justification for the price tag, more so in light of the aforementioned issues it will inevitably suffer from. Contrast alone we know won't be great, and obviously that's not a 'fault', but it is limitation.
