FAQs

What is the native resolution and refresh rate of this monitor?

The native resolution is 3440 x 1440 (2K Ultra HD), and the standard refresh rate is 200Hz.

Can I use this monitor for non-gaming applications like productivity or creative work?

Yes, the 34-inch ultrawide display with a 1500R curve is excellent for multitasking, coding, video editing, and other productivity tasks, offering a large workspace and immersive viewing.

What is the benefit of the 1500R curvature?

The 1500R curvature provides a more immersive viewing experience by wrapping the screen around your field of vision, reducing eye strain and increasing engagement.

How does the esports dual mode work?

The esports dual mode allows you to switch the display to a lower resolution (720p) to achieve a much higher refresh rate (up to 400Hz). This is beneficial for competitive gamers who prioritize the fastest possible response time in specific esports titles.

What does HDR support mean for image quality?

HDR (High Dynamic Range) support, in this case with DisplayHDR 400 compliance, allows the monitor to display a wider range of brightness and color, resulting in deeper blacks, brighter highlights, and more vibrant, lifelike images compared to standard displays.

What cables are recommended for the best performance?

For the highest resolutions and refresh rates, it is recommended to use a DisplayPort cable (version 1.2 or higher). HDMI 2.0 or higher can also be used.

How do I adjust monitor settings without using the physical buttons?

You can use the ASUS DisplayWidget Center software, which allows you to control most monitor settings, including picture modes and color adjustments, using your mouse directly on your computer.

Troubleshooting

Monitor does not power on.

Ensure the power cable is securely connected to both the monitor and a working power outlet. Try a different outlet. Check if the power button is pressed correctly.

No image displayed / 'No Signal' message.

Verify that the video cable (HDMI or DisplayPort) is properly connected to both the monitor and the graphics card. Ensure the correct input source is selected on the monitor via the OSD menu. Try a different cable or port.

Screen flickering or tearing.

Ensure AMD FreeSync Premium is enabled in the monitor's OSD settings and in your graphics card's control panel. Update your graphics card drivers. If using DisplayPort, ensure it's connected to a compatible port on both the monitor and GPU.

Poor image quality or ghosting.

Adjust the 'Response Time' or 'Overdrive' setting in the OSD menu. Lower settings may reduce ghosting but increase motion blur; higher settings can reduce motion blur but may introduce overshoot artifacts. Experiment to find the best balance. Ensure the correct resolution and refresh rate are set in your OS.

DisplayWidget Center not working.

Make sure you have downloaded and installed the latest version of DisplayWidget Center from the ASUS support website for your model. Ensure the USB cable (if applicable for some features) is connected between the monitor and your PC.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Immersive 34-inch curved display for enhanced gaming and multitasking.
  • Extremely high refresh rate (200Hz) and rapid response time (0.5ms) for fluid visuals.
  • Dedicated esports mode for competitive advantage in fast-paced games.

Cons

  • Energy Efficiency Class G may lead to higher power consumption compared to more efficient models.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Unpack all components carefully.
  2. Attach the monitor stand to the base and then to the monitor panel following the included manual.
  3. Connect the monitor to your PC or console using an appropriate cable (HDMI or DisplayPort recommended for full performance).
  4. Plug in the power adapter.
  5. Turn on the monitor and your computer.
  6. Configure display settings in your operating system to match the monitor's native resolution (3440 x 1440) and desired refresh rate.

Compatibility:

  • Supports AMD FreeSync Premium for compatible AMD graphics cards.
  • Requires a graphics card capable of outputting 3440 x 1440 resolution at high refresh rates for optimal performance.

Care:

  • Clean the screen with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. For stubborn smudges, slightly dampen the cloth with water or a screen-safe cleaner. Avoid spraying liquid directly onto the screen.
  • Keep the monitor in a well-ventilated area to prevent overheating.
  • Regularly clean dust from ventilation openings.
  • Avoid pressing on the screen surface to prevent damage.
