Any new ultra wides on the horizon?

Looking at getting a G Sync ultra wide to replace my current LG non G Sync. From what I can work out the
PG348Q ROG SWIFT if one of the best but I've seen a few poor reviews to do with backlight bleed.

Any others to consider or wait around for?

For that budget, the Alienware AW3418DW would be the best option - IPS, 34", 3440x1440, G-Sync, 120hz and thin bezels.

But if you wanted an even higher refresh-rate (and were prepared to wait awhile) the Asus 35” PG35VQ should be out this year - VA, 35", 3440x1440, G-Sync, HDR, Quantum Dot, and 200hz.

Thanks, I like the 35" PG35VQ, but I also like the Alienware monitor.

Im not keen on the price of the Alienware especially since it doesn’t have HDR.

When they are released, expect to pay £2000+ if you want a G-Sync monitor with HDR.

That's an insane amount of money.

I already have ultra wide, so I know what it's like. I just lack G Sync and it's only 60hz.

I upgraded to 100Hz g-sync, don't think it was worth IMO

Really? Maybe I'll wait out then. It's a lot of money to spend!

I'm not going to pay that much and I earn reasonably well. £1k is my limit, so looks like non HDR if I do get something.
