Its features are completed with a DisplayHDR 400 certification that implements AMD FreeSync 2 HDR dynamic refresh technology and two 5W speakers. As for connectivity, we have 2 HDMI 2.0 ports and a DisplayPort 1.2 that will be the one we must use to get the most out of this beast. Nor can we forget its two USB 3.0 ports and the headphone jack, something that almost any high-end monitor brings with it.

This monitor as you can all imagine, is specially designed for games due to its ultra-wide format and refresh rate, we have no doubt that it will be one of the reference monitors of this first half of the year. More and more manufacturers are joining the club of ultra-wide monitors, among which we already find ViewSonic with its XG350R-C, MSI with its Prestige PS341WU or Lenovo with its Legion Y44w, among other brands.

For now, the brand has not given more details about this monitor in terms of release date or price, but we can be sure that it will not be cheap, and we calculate that it will be around 1, 300 or 1, 600 euros. Do you think ultra wide monitors will be the main choice for gamers?
