I'd say the LG with the discount code is the best value if you can put up with a bit of backlight bleed and ips glow which you will get on any ips screen.

But of course no gsync.

I think the x34 can be had for around 800 though? Which is gsync and 1440p.

It really is one of those isn't it! Only I can make the decision :rolleyes:

blimey, x34 hmmm

Depends how important gsync is to you.

I'd say get the cf791 otherwise. Love mine, fantastic monitor. Just no gsync

I did consider the x34, but the extra £100 and potential ips pitfalls put me off and I went for the Samsung.

That's right Ivan, Initially I did say I've never really noticed stutter/tear so it isn't a must...... but there's always the thought that it could be that good you'd wish you went Gsync earlier. Anyway cheers for your advice and info so far, appreciate it.

No probs

If you want gsync, go for the x34.

As long as it's not much more than 800 anyway.

Total direction change in the end, went for the Acer XB281HK 4K with Gsync.

It was on sale for £399 elsewhere, I know I'll have to make some trade offs settings wise but with Gsync I reckon it's worth it.

Cheers for the advice earlier and enjoy Destiny 2 when it lands.
