The Acer Predator X34 and the Asus ROG Swift PG348Q bear more similarities than that they differ, at least on paper. A resolution of 3440x1440 pixels and a curved AH-IPS panel with a maximum refresh rate of 100 Hz, support for G-sync and a hefty, but almost identical price tag. This raises the question: which one is better?

'Better' in this price class is a relative concept, especially if you are comparing monitors with the same panel, driven by the same scaler. You will not have to worry about quality anyway in this price class, though it is of course always possible to be unlucky. That is what they made RMA for and they are usually fairly lenient regarding expensive monitors, at least within the warranty period.

So when we receive two nearly identical products from difference manufacturers, we cannot really do much more than measuring their performance. Response time and input lag are of course very important factors for gaming displays such as the Acer Predator X34 and the Asus PG348Q, but we also expect color fidelity to be at least decent for monitors as expensive as these.
