Need monitor suggestion

Recently built a rig and looking for a monitor for it. I decided to run VR for most Assetto Corsa, but will still play AC on screen from time to time so I want to make sure the monitor will still be good for AC. I also play a lot of Horizons 5, Destiny2, Horizon Zero Dawn, Assassins Creed, etc.

I have an ASUS ROG G14, Ryzen 9, RTX3060. DP 1.2 through USB-C directly wired to GPU.

I don't want to spend mucho $$$ on a monitor since I'm not a serious gamer. I do want an ultra-wide since I do play Destiny and such. I've been debating between these 3.

Each are VA, 144-165hz through DP, reviews claim each works with G-sync even though they don't state they are compatible.

I would recommend going with the ASUS TUF option, due to sRGB: 120%, but I would also consider Xiaomi curved gaming monitor 34" if you are willing to spend extra $$$.
Despite your final choice, all monitors are good and if you are not an expert in this area you won't spot a huge difference between them, so you can also go for the cheapest option, and spend saved money on something else


If you never had an ultrawide monitor, you also need to keep in mind that some games like Elden Ring do not support a 21:9 ratio and the ultrawide community is still not that much important for developers. Hopefully, this will change shortly!

I have the Dell UltraSharp 38 ultrawidescreen 4k monitor when I bought my Alienware PC. Great picture, but there's been a problem with it since I got it where the display wigs out into a million vertical lines. I worked with Dell to fix it and they replaced the CPU, the graphics card, the ram, etc. Still doing it. So I'm guessing it's a problem with the display. But now it's out of warranty. Never get a Dell.

i recommend a 49" 32:9 wide screen

i believe the 1080p ones are not too expensive vs 2160p

Another recommendation for the LG C48, I have the C48X and my GPU is a EVGA 3090 Hybrid FTW3 Ultra and it is great for gaming and every day task. Had an Alienware wide screen 34" before the LG C48 and the LG is so much better.

If you are into racing gaming and want to spend a good bucks on a monitor, then go for Lg ultra wide Curve display, that gives the best colors and HDR 10+
