Change from IPS 1440p 144hz to VA Ultrawide, madness?

[GMac11]

I currently have two monitors on my desk, an Acer XB270HU (1440p, 144hz, IPS and gsync) and a bog standard 24 inch Dell.
I have been wanting to ditch both for a single monitor, preferably an UW 34/35 inch.

However, any change is going to result in a drop in FPS which I'm not entirely keen on. I would be happy to drop to 120hz as my games tend to sit around 130-160fps currently so with the extra pixels I imagine I wouldn't be far off 120fps anyway - but 100hz is just too low.

I am worried also that going from an IPS to a VA panel might not be the greatest of transitions however the prices for IPS ultrawides are just too far out of my price range. At most I could maybe stretch to a refurbed X34P which would solve most of my problems apart from the fact it's second hand and you're into IPS panel lottery territory as well.

Finally gsync would be ideal unless there's a Nvidia certified freesync UW out there somewhere?

FYI I mostly game and photo edit. Now to be clear I am far from a professional photographer, I just do some freelance work for the local paper so although absolute colour accuracy would be nice it's not essential, unless VA colours are downright awful?

Edit: Ended up taking a punt on the X34P. If I receive a good unit then it would be well worth what I paid...

X34P is a great option, pretty much an UW version of yours!

Well much water has passed under the bridge since. The X34P arrived and was swiftly returned. As soon as I switched it on there was a stuck pixel in the middle of the screen and almost immediately after that it turned into a beautiful vertical green line the entire way up the middle. It has been returned which is a real pity as it looked spectacular on the desk. The company initially offered a refund however more have since arrived in stock (refurb units again) and they have offered an exchange which I initially bit their hand off for considering I only paid £559 in the first place!
However, there appeared to be somewhat of a flash sale on the Z35P yesterday (across various retailers) and I placed an order through the Rainforest for £569. So my decision now is do I chance a second refurb unit in the hope I get a good IPS model or stick with the rainforest order and get a nice shiny new VA model?
