I was going to ask what to go for between PG348Q or X34A but it sounds like there's no difference except price?
Only want it for gaming if it matters.

Indeed! My friend had exactly the same deal. Spurred me on to check clearance models when I bagged my XB271HU for £390 (now £700!).
X34A, panel is same, Acer are just giving a far bigger discount, it is essentially back at the launch price.

Acer Predator XB241HBmipr & Acer Predator XB271Hbmiprz look like good gsync deals to me, but haven't seen hardly any reviews. Which is why the free sync Samsung C24FG70 & C27FG70 look like a better deal to me, even though I won't be able to use free sync. I'm worried about the picture quality of the two Acer monitors and dead pixels policy.

I like the look of LG's ultrawides it's just a shame that their Freesync support is not better, Practically none support LFC and none support lower than a 40hz minimum range. I'm hoping the next gen from them does better.
The Samsung at the end looks nice but again it's working range is from 48, at least it supports LFC for when it goes under that.
You can find more Freesync info on all the above Freesync models here:

Just scroll down to the bottom and use the monitors button.

Agreed. I wouldn't spend 1k on any of the current monitors when the difference isn't that big vs lower priced ones, but I absolutely would spend it on the OLED TV - way better return.Or assuming you have the room... Cough up an extra £500 or so for a lovely 4K HDR OLED 55" TV
OLED's superior IQ will more than make up for the higher input lag (which either you won't notice or care for anyway, at least in single player games) and lack of gsync.
The monitor segment is milk central.
You can get the Freesync range of the 29'' LG down to 30-75.
