      Yeah, I've decided I want a 34", 1440p IPS, Thunderbolt with at least 2 HDMI and 120Hz

      Can't find anything close tho.

        This is what you want. I'm saving up for that one, $2200. 3840x1600 so even better than 1440p as you get more vertical. I and many who have 34" 1440p want more vertical.

        • giventofly on 02/08/2020 - 12:27

          I've seen that. 38" Might be a slight stretch to fit on my desk

          Has everything

          Have owned this LG model for about a month now and can highly recommend it! Awesome piece of kit and has delivered over and above expectation for me.

          Only unintended consequence of moving to this as my sole WFH monitor is that it becomes more problematic when screen sharing on web conferences as your screen looks tiny for anyone else so you need to be cognisant of that.

          • DanasaurusRAWR on 02/08/2020 - 12:58

            @CamM: Can’t you share the application only? Would solve a lot of your problems.

            • CamM on 02/08/2020 - 13:14
              +2

              @DanasaurusRAWR: Thanks for the suggestion - you’re right that it helps. The first time I had to screen share with this monitor, I went on autopilot and just shared my whole desktop and was very quickly told that my screen was ridiculously tiny!! Never made that mistake again ;-)

              Since then, I have taken to just sharing a single app at a time and ensuring (obviously) that it’s not using the full screen width. Even so, I have noticed that it can look small on other people’s screens. Maybe it’s due to the additional vertical pixel count of this monitor, but I’ve just found that more often than not, people need me to zoom in a little to make it more legible for them. Not a big deal, but the reality is you need to be very aware of your screen/window size etc when sharing and this is just something I’ve never had a problem with previously. Just takes some time getting into the habit.

              When all is said and done though, I love this monitor and have zero regrets in buying it.

          • giventofly on 02/08/2020 - 16:36

            @CamM: I have that issue now with 1440p - most folks are working off FHD, but I see that as their problem, not mine :D

        • giventofly on 02/08/2020 - 14:08

          I've measured my desk and it'll fit!

          Wife's given the go ahead. But I will wait for a deal.

            +1

            @giventofly: Woohoo! You won’t be disappointed!! Hope you can find a good deal soon. I needed a WFH setup ASAP so preordered mine after some research and was counting my lucky stars I held off buying its predecessor (i.e. 38WK95C-W) given the new model is better on every level and arrived at a considerable discount on price. It wasn’t on special, but it was much cheaper than the outgoing model.

            • giventofly on 02/08/2020 - 18:29

              @CamM: I think I'll order it soon and keep an eye out should I need to use my cards price protection.

              Do you game? If so, what GPU do you have? I've got an RTX2070 - wondering how much of a hit it'll take in games like GTA V, Far Cry 5 and Battlefield 5

              EDIT: Also, where would you buy it from? I've never bought from Scorptec or Mwave. They any good?

              • CamM on 02/08/2020 - 19:27
                +1

                @giventofly: I game casually, but XB1 rather than PC these days so unfortunately I can't give you any tips re: how your GPU will perform.

                I bought mine from Scorptec and was very happy with the experience. I'd opted to pick up from one of their Sydney stores, but they got stock at their other store first. After a quick web chat with their team, they happily changed my pickup location and ensured one was put aside for me. When I picked it up, they mentioned that my pre-order was actually the first order they'd taken for this model and they showed me where they'd flagged my order in their system as a "priority" (i.e. given the model was brand new and stock was exceedingly limited, they were ensuring that my order would be fulfilled from their initial inventory). I paid $2199, so not the cheapest on offer - but not the worst either - and I was prepared to pay the "pioneer's tax" on a brand new release model.

                I purchased a Brother MFC colour laser printer from Mwave around the same time as I bought the monitor. Yeah… that was an expensive month! I've read about other people having mixed buying experiences with them, but I can only go off my own and I found them easy enough to deal with.

                If I was buying again, I'd go Scorptec - mainly because I was very happy with them and their store is closer to me. But these are just my personal experiences. As always, YMMV.

                • giventofly on 02/08/2020 - 20:11

                  @CamM: Thanks for the response!

                  • CamM on 02/08/2020 - 20:22

                    @giventofly: You're welcome! Hope you can score a bargain on the LG in the near future - really don't think you'll be disappointed with it.

        • squeeb on 02/08/2020 - 15:31

    How does this compare to dell's ultrasharp lineup? Besides the response time.

    • poppingtags on 02/08/2020 - 11:05

      Yeah, also interested in this - the ultrasharps are a bit more expensive, but come with USB-C hubs. Wonder what would be better for non-gamers.

      • Chazzozz on 02/08/2020 - 11:27

        The Dell U2721DE is only $645 using the above codes. I got this with similar codes back in June and it’s great. For the extra $138 I think it’s worth the price.

        • poppingtags on 02/08/2020 - 11:47

          I wonder if it's better than this aside from the USB-C hub.

          • kiitos on 02/08/2020 - 13:29

            @poppingtags: Me too - what does the Ultrasharp designation give over this deal's monitor?

            • Chazzozz on 02/08/2020 - 13:55
              +1

              @kiitos: Primarily, UltraSharps will have better colour calibration and good clarity, hence why designers and such like them. They used to be known for being a better quality panel, too, but I don’t know if that’s still the case.

    • drilly on 02/08/2020 - 13:57

  • johnnytran on 02/08/2020 - 10:51

    My desktop is a few years old, a dell xps I think it has an 8gb gtx 1070.. do I need a better card to run this resolution/refresh rate? I don’t game on PC but will use it with my PS4 pro. I’ll be running this and an older 24” monitor which I’ll replace eventually

    • locknuts on 02/08/2020 - 11:01

      Nah I've been running 1440p at over 100fps consistently in most games with a 1070. If you want max settings and a locked 144hz+ then a new GPU that can do that should be just around the corner if your XPS allows GPU upgrades easily. PS4 Pro should work fine over HDMI. My understanding is that it puts out a 1440p image in most games. Freesync probably won't work at 30fps though.

      • johnnytran on 02/08/2020 - 11:09

        Thanks. This deal is so tempting but reading more into this monitor it looks like it’s just been released, I’ll probably regret not getting it now but I think I might just wait for reviews

  • Rigby on 02/08/2020 - 11:16

    Really dumb question but my current PC wouldn't be able to handle gaming at 1440p - until I upgrade would it look terrible if I were to run games at 1080p on it? Would it look worse than a 24" at 1080p? Or similar?

    • Yuri Lowell on 02/08/2020 - 11:22

      Gaming at 1080p looks alright. It has a softer and more jaggy look but it's not unplayable. Even modest PCs can play older games at 1440p 144fps, and then many games also have a resolution scaler so you can run the monitor at 1440p but the game renders at a % of that resolution (i.e. 70%).

    • netsurfer on 02/08/2020 - 12:22

      It won't look as sharp as 1080p monitor at 1080p. LCD monitors look the sharpest at their native resolution.

      Most 1440p monitors are reasonably well optimised for 1080p nowadays, but you can still tell if you look carefully.

  • Black Hole on 02/08/2020 - 11:37

    The ECU5 code only discount with same value per purchase. So if you add more than 1 monitor you will end paying more than purchasing it twice. I have request for a cancellation for the previous 2 and also the 2 prior to that without this code. Cannot find support on Sunday so I have emailed them with the request for cancellation. If this failed I may end up with 6 monitors :(
