Manufacturer description

The 21:9 aspect ratio delivers roughly 30 percent more horizontal screen space than a conventional 16:9 display, so you can dock a reference doc beside your IDE or push a racing sim's field of view wide enough to see the apex. A 1500R curve wraps the edges toward you, keeping the far corners at a consistent viewing distance during long sessions. For gaming, AMD FreeSync adaptive sync matches the panel's refresh rate to your GPU's frame output to cut tearing, and DisplayPort 1.4 carries the full 165Hz while HDMI 2.0 tops out at 120Hz. Color coverage is rated at 99 percent sRGB with 8-bit…

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this monitor actually run at 165Hz?

Yes, over DisplayPort 1.4. The two HDMI ports use HDMI 2.0 and cap at 120Hz at 3440x1440, so use a DisplayPort cable for the full 165Hz.

Will it work with an Xbox or PS5?

Gawfolk lists Xbox, PC, and laptop compatibility. Console output over HDMI 2.0 is limited to 120Hz here; check your console's ultrawide support, since many titles letterbox 21:9.

Does it support FreeSync or G-Sync?

It supports AMD FreeSync adaptive sync, which syncs the refresh rate to your GPU to reduce tearing. G-Sync compatibility is not listed by the manufacturer.

Can I mount this on a monitor arm?

Yes. It supports a 75x75mm VESA pattern, though the mount is not included. The stock stand offers 2.8 to 7.4 inches of height adjustment plus tilt.

Is the HDR worth using?

The panel is rated at 300 cd/m2 with 8-bit color and 99% sRGB coverage. HDR is supported, but at that brightness expect a modest lift rather than true high-dynamic-range highlights.
