Which bracket did you go for? If I type "lcd wall mount tilt" into a well known retailer's website, does it show in the results?

Yep, rainforest.

The one I got was "Intecbrackets - Strong adjustable tilting TV wall mount bracket".

I got a Xenta Single Monitor Mount for around £50

This is a "Desk clamp" style, rather then wall mount - but for the same reason that the X34 + stand was probably a little much for my desk!

Its rated to 9Kg, which is more than enough, but I did really have to ratchet up the tilt adjustment to stop the screen drooping forwards!

Still, now its all set up and looks good, without taking over my desk Now if I could just get the on-order 1080 installed, I could really start to enjoy it!

How much more taxing is a 1440p UW monitor on my GPU? I know 4K is 4 times harder. but how much harder is 1440p and 1440p UW?

would my 390x (overclocked to 1120Mhz) max games on a 1440 21:9?

Just ordered my X34A yesterday! SO EXCITED

Perfect choice, and much better now that it's on the wall.

Only way to have a desktop

BTW, check the OP, there are 4k VS 3440x1440 performance figures there.

The OP contains EVERYTHING you need to know about 21.9

And cortana still running by the looks of it, ewwwww.

Does anyone know if these new revisions of the Acers (X34P and X342CK), and probably others like the forthcoming Dell and the Designo, use a new IPS panel? They all have a 1900R curve and as far as I know are overclocked out of the box so they probably handle overcklocking better. This may sound like a new panel to me.

The way it should be, I have no icons either except on the bar.

It depends what sort of games you play i cant even max out on 290x crossfire at 1200mhz using 1440p. As an example if i set gta to 1080 and turn down some of the more demanding settings i get 150+fps, at 1440 i get 90fps and at 1440 UW i get 65.

If ya wanna test it just run firestrike or something at 1080 then turn up the res to the one you wanna try and see what difference in FPS you get.

You would need a couple of 980ti or greater to max out 1440 UW really, but you could always drop the settings if ya really wanted one.

Yes, of course!

 

[BluD]

Ewwww icons, as soon as you've finished installing they should all be deleted.

Right click on Desktop>Show desktop icons>no

Disappointed tbh, no Shemale folder

Nice!

In fact, apart from you have a black Air 540 case, I have a silver one - our set up is identical!

Glad the bracket works for you, can't wait to finally get mine on the wall. Just need the gpu to turn up.

Does look an amazing setup. But you really need to raggle those two cables into the wall. They are really bugging me lol.

That would be OCD too far.
