You Take The Good, You Take The Unhealthy

Cooler Grasp refreshed their 34″ quantum dot show this 12 months, with the brand new GM34-CWQ2 show.  The show continues to be a 3440×1440 VA quantum dot show, with the refresh price elevated from 144Hz to 180Hz and extra overdrive modes, together with a handbook one, which you need to use to get essentially the most out of the show.  CM eliminated the ARGB lighting system within the base, which TechPowerUp weren’t significantly keen on to start with.  The KVM performance additionally stays, and whereas it does assist 65 W charging in addition to show over UCB-C, there isn’t a USB-C cable included although you do get DisplayPort, HDMI, USB-B for the KVM and three energy cords to make sure you can energy it in quite a lot of completely different nations.

The efficiency is a bit combined nevertheless, on the plus aspect Cooler Grasp halved the enter lag of the GM34-CWQ2 in comparison with final 12 months’s mannequin nevertheless the color profiles it ships with usually are not as correct.  Once they calibrated the show that improved considerably, aside from the static distinction ratio which remained inferior to the earlier mannequin.  In addition they weren’t in love with the shiny backside body, however that’s actually a matter of private style and never essentially a foul change.
