> 3 dayExcellent quality for resolution, brightness and if you are upgrading from 1080p, definitely worth the upgrade. The 34 allows for a productivity boost by being able to work on 3 different tabs at once, meaning no compromising with zooming in. Now heres where it lowers my rating: Right out of the box, one of the cables were damaged and just a bit of a kick in the butt seeing as youre paying a lot of money for a new, quality product, and youd expect it to come to you in good shape. As well, there is no protective wrap on the screen and I smudged it installing it. Id give it 4 for now, as I just received it. Edit: Have now had this monitor for a few days and I stand by my rating. Couple of other things: - The stand seems solid, but its a bit questionable. Probably best to mount with VESA - The menu settings are numerous, so lots of customizability - I was hoping the buttons didnt feel so cheap, they click really loudly and feel like cheap plastic - The monitor hook up to the stand itself wobbles slightly if you move something on your desk, be advised - Overall extra happy with the additional productivity boost (came from a 15.7 laptop screen, now added this monitor to the set up) - Note it comes with a display port, which is only really available for newer PCs. Prepare to either supply your own HDMI or just connect, idk I feel like I missed the memo on that one - I feel like I also missed the memo on the fact that it doesnt have speakers and the back has mild chroma lighting - Its a bit of a hassle to change the brightness, maybe Im missing a macro - Came with a lot of plastic and styrofoam if youre environmentally friendly, be ready to recycle - Make sure the dimensions of the stand itself can fit on your desk, its larger breadth-wise(front to back of the monitor) than expected - when you turn off the monitor, its off - nice if you want to blackout a room - Didnt really notice too much of a difference between my full HD laptop and this screen - Others have been quite impressed by this purchase as well Why should you trust my review? Im an avid gamer and masters student (plenty of multi-tasking and productivity-based activities) who is bound by a code of ethics and standards of professional conduct in my profession. Anyway, hope this helps and pineapple is allowed on pizza (not mandatory or necessary though)

Greater than one weekUsing this for work from home on a company supplied laptop. The resolution is perfect, I can make things small enough to fit a lot on the screen. Colors look good. The back lot LEDs are a bonus. The stand is decent but I just wish it went higher up.

> 3 dayI first bought two 27 LG ultragear monitors (1080, 240hz, IPS), and i liked them at firs but there were too many downsides in my laptop+monitors setup with them. Returned them just before a month was up. -3 screens, none of them great pic when sitting at desk distance -IPS can be a bit bright at that distance, when using for extended periods -550ish was a relatively lot to spend on monitors, got me thinking what else i could get for same or less money shopped around A LOT. 34 wide 3440x1440 @ 144hz with 1ms response at this price is a deal, and MSI is not a garbage brand. decided to try. Like: -easy on the eyes -size is great, pretty much perfect for working or gaming. my laptop sits next to it, so I still have 2 monitors -widescreen compatible with all games ive played so far, easy to use -nice stand, doesnt take up much space im still figuring out the best picture settings, its not entirely obvious what they should be. I shopped around a lot and bought and returned some stuff and I dont think I could have done any better for the money. For a workstation monitor, first, that also happens to be really nice on games.

> 3 dayPackaging and all looked just fine and dandy, carefully set it inside and started to unpack everything, nothing dropped, or was set down roughly, nor grabbed the monitor by its sides, assembly and transportation from the box to desk was about as good as you could get it. Plug the DP and power cord up, Power light comes on! Backlight comes on!... Wheres the rest?? Messed around with a HDMI cable (2 of them) into several different computers and even a Roku, and nothing changed outside of just a backlight, not even a OSD popped up during any of the attempts, granted I was bold to assume a monitor needed a signal to show its OSD, but benefit of the doubt, and with two to three hours of troubleshooting, nothing has changed. Amazing.

> 3 dayWorking on this monitor is fantastic. My software and game engine layout fit all on one screen. Huge development excels fit all in a single view. Honestly, the monitor has saved me a lot of hassle juggling my work setup. Nice and affordable, you will have an immersive overall experience with any content you play on this. I will warn you when watching movies you will have to adjust the resolution get the picture

> 3 dayThis Montior is the absolute top of my build for my new gaming PC, to give you an idea my rig has a ryzen 9 5950 cpu and a 3070ti graphics card, 32 gigs of ram. And I needed a monitor that was not only capable but stylish to fish off my build. And it did not disappoint. The value you get is top notch and I havent had any problem since instalation. If you are a fellow gamer and are looking to get a monitor, I highly recommend this one, it has some of the best picture quality Ive ever seen on a monitor and has no problem displaying 4k raytracing in full detail. If you are looking for an ultra wide monitor to complete your rig, pick this one. The price is amazing and the quality is well above what you pay. I also recommend downloading Wallpaper engine from steam to get some amazing animated wallpapers to showoff this fantastic display.
