The ASUS Designo Curve MX34VQ is a great 34in curved widescreen in many respects. It looks fantastic, and if you happen to have a compatible phone, the built-in Qi Wireless charging is exceptionally cool. Colour accuracy is excellent too, and there is a nicely balanced range of presets in the OSD.
The resolution, size, aspect and curvature are all very seductive. Although this is more of a professional and entertainment screen, the 100Hz refresh and game-focused settings mean it can turn its hand to gaming too on occasion.
Unfortunately, though, there are some areas where it falls behind the Samsung CF791, particularly with regards to brightness uniformity. The Samsung also offers FreeSync, has a USB hub built in (albeit with just two ports), and has a more pronounced curvature (if you like that sort of thing, and presumably you do if you're considering either screen).
Although the MX34VQ is slightly cheaper than the Samsung CF791, unfortunately it's also not quite so good in most areas, or otherwise identical. The price is decent for a 34in curved screen with 3,440 x 1,440 resolution, 100Hz refresh and this level of image quality. But, unless you can find it for less than £700, we'd pay a little bit more and get the Samsung instead, if this is the size and form factor of screen you're after.
The ASUS Designo Curve MX34VQ is available on Scan.

Kitguru Says: The ASUS Designo Curve MX34VQ is a great 34in curved monitor for professional and general entertainment environments but for £100 extra the Samsung CF791 offers more.
No Freesync or G-Sync yet the still want £750 for it.
Lol..fuck off Asus, the stuff you make isn’t as good as you seem to think it is.
There’s no shortage of other monitors of this size with adaptive sync in either flavor. Perhaps not at this price point, but they’re still out there.
Perhaps consider the PG348Q if you want G-Sync.

There is freesync. PCmonitors could test it :https://pcmonitors.info/reviews/asus-mx34vq/ ; also it’s present on the Specs sheet of the monitor (see the notes): https://www.asus.com/Monitors/MX34VQ/specifications/
I think that KitGuru missed something here…..
Gotta be that dude unfortunately. It has a 60 Hz refresh rate, not 100 Hz.

“such as adaptive-sync settings like G-Sync, using a compatible graphics card in our test PC.”
Year, test a Freesync monitor with a Quadro
Has freesync…they list it as adaptive sync.
Nope, Asus is a pain, on the nz site, there is a mention of 16.7million colours, but no srgb percentage and Freesync is mention as adaptive sync “3)Adaptive Sync support range from 48Hz-100Hz”
