After owning both 144hz and 100hz gsync monitors, i am certain that my next monitor will be 144hz or better without gsync. Tearing is hardly seen at 144hz anyway and there are multiple downsides to gsync such as, added cost, gsync scanlines, weird "waves" running down the monitor when gsync is active(seen more on some baggrounds than other). Freesync is even more crappy due to limited working range, added lag when hitting upper and lower sync range, at least its cheap.
Next monitor: 144hz with freesync disabled

Why these ultra wide screen monitors?? Really don't get the point for gaming anyway but maybe for other types of work it would make sense.

I have a Samsung CF791 (3440x1440 100hz, no g-sync) - Honestly (for me personally) I don't notice tearing or stuttering in games much, but I think this is because currently my setup is really balanced and pretty much any game runs around 100fps - some games like D3 I just put a manual fps limit of 110 in game and that works great too.
Also I really feel it's a lot more immersive then a flat panel 16:9 screen, This for me is noticable when gaming on my 55" tv compared to the monitor.
In all fairness tho, I bought an Ultrawide cause of music production (and some video edeting/photoshop), which was my nr1 priority, and that's where it really shines.
They're not for everyone, but they are actually great for games too imo (apart from some games having minor issues in menu's or UI).
I even run older games like SimCity4 and Command and conquer Generals fine on it, altho then you have black bars left and right cause they run in 16:9.
Last point - They're to expensive for what you get, that's my only issue, but if you use them mostly for other stuff then pure gaming they're great :P
If you "must' have 4k you can get those 40+ inch (60hz) screens at around 5 to 700 euro's.

a lot of ppl seem to be telling me to avoid and not go for curved screens yet, as they usually start having issues in 2-3yrs..
and that really shunned me away from it. haha, I wonder if there is any validity in that..
and to wait a couple more years for curved screen monitors to really become stable/mature.

From what I've read/heard elsewhere the colorshift on these panels (the AOC one uses the same panel) is pretty bad.

Apart from specific esport games like CS, is 144Hz relevant anywhere else? Isn't that a requirement that basically makes the rest of your hardware look older much faster? There aren't really any GPUs that can maintain that in any meaningful way in a AAA title today, why bother? Just for CSGO?
I'm not trying to troll or flame, I'm genuinely curious. My monitor choice would be a 1440p HDR monitor with 30-75Hz Freesync/Gsync, for example.

You both guys make good points, and I have never played using a 144Hz monitor. I'll give it a try whenever I have the chance, thanks.

Hilbert, your article says the monitor doesn't have ULMB but according to the US amazon page, the Acer Z35P does have ULMB. Whose right?

I´m looking for a new monitor and after asking some gurus for opinions, all of them said the same thing to me: buy a 144Hz screen!!!
So i´m going to follow their opinion and buy one. I´m eyeing 2 from Asus, the Asus MG279Q IPS 27 144Hz (560€) and the Asus MG278Q TN 27 144Hz (487€). The problem is that they are a little pricey for my taste but it seems i have to sacrifice my wallet for the greater gaming experience...
