AOC to Release the u3477Pqu 34-Inch 3440 x 1440 Monitor

[Cristian_25H]

This summer AOC is set to bring to market the u3477Pqu, a 34-inch monitor with a 21:9 aspect ratio and a native resolution of 3440 x 1440 pixels. The upcoming ultra-wide display has a slim bezel design, makes use of an AH-IPS panel and features a 5 ms (GTG) response time, a 1,000:1 contrast ratio, 320 cd/m2 brightness, a four-port (dual 2.0 and dual 3.0) USB hub, built-in 3 W stereo speakers, and D-Sub, DVI, HDMI and DisplayPort inputs.

The AOC u3477Pqu is said to come out in July. No word on pricing though.

Very interesting... I must check to see what graphics options can drive this.

True, that LG 34UM95 is the one to beat.

I think you need 2x compared to 1080p, still alot less than going to 4k resolution.

No need for 2x. I've got a single GTX 780 and that runs games fine at Ultra settings (Wolfenstein) on the LG 34UM95.

The AOC will be cheaper no doubt. It has no Thunderbolt 2 ports, no hardware LUT and is more of a budget orientated brand anyway but having said that... The stand is better and it looks to be the same panel as the LG (I think they all will be in this segment now anyway unless Samsung release their own) so we can expect same kind of performance as the LG unless AOC/Dell etc drive them differently or use a different AG coating.

My review of the LG is on Neowin forums for those interested.
