hi,going to order the above curved monitor any one using one can confirm it goes up to 75hz with free sync, and your opinion on the monitor,
thanks,
 
I have the C32HG70 and I am really OK with it.

Compared to my 24" TN Panel, it is much darker where it is black. The TN Panel has a glow at the bottom and top, while Samsung is a little bright only at the very corners of the screen. You can bang it up very bright, so much so I leave it at 50%.

I like all the features in OSD:
Power saving via OSD.
The LED at the back are of no use to me, but it can be turned off with the OSD.
The power indicator at the front can be turned off/on with OSD.
You can switch between Freesync 1/2 or off using the OSD.
Manual set connection types like DP 1.0/1.2/1.2+ via OSD.
I have my BR player connected via HDMI and it autodetects a little slow after turning it on and the PC off, but if you trigger autodetect via OSD, it picks up immediately.
Brightness, colour modes (like 5+) etc. via OSD (I like cinema style, it has strong colours and strong contrast).
Stats, refreshrate, connection type etc. via OSD.

Even though it is curved, I can see the picture standing ~4m away just fine.

The USB hub only works if the monitor is turned on. This is a little inconvenience, as I have to turn on the monitor and the PC to have the input. It will not wake up automatically or only very late after the logon appeared on the 24" TN Panel. Also you can never open the BIOS on this screen.
I am not sure how I would do with if this would be my only monitor.

The cables were very short and OcUK put the wrong one in for UK, I got a 90 degree right turned plug for UK and 90 degree left turned plug for EURO. But I now use a 5m straight UK plug. The back-lid stays therefore off, doesn't bother me.

I think yours only has FreeSync1 and not version2 and no low framerate protection?
Why not get the HG70?
because this is cheaper,looks better with the bezeless design,as quontom dot for better colors,also as freesync.
