Can anyone recommend a decent 34” IPS Ultrawide monitor, which is also budget friendly?
Topic moved to #self-service:pc-hardware for advice.
Not IPS but an otherwise amazing panel for the price. I’ve had mine for nearly a year now. No complaints
im just waiting for mine to be delivered today

Sceptre 35" 3440x1440 100 Hz VA panel. Loving it for $379 US on Amazon.
I’m using this monitor that I really like. But I only use it for work. Not for MSFS.
I bought a VA VIOTEK 34 3440x1440 100hz for around 300ish USD and yeah its not the best but way better than anything else I have owned.If your budget is around 400-500 get something decent.
One thing I like about this monitor is the full RGB mod giving deeper blacks unlike my older monitors. Makes night flying more realistic.
I picked up the LG 34GP83A-B a couple months ago; it’s ok, but it has just enough low-end HDR support to whet my appetite for something more expensive later. 
3440x1440 resolution, runs nice in Windows at 125% user-interface scaling. Up to 144 Hz refresh rate, and can do G-Sync with an NVIDIA card over DisplayPort (NOT over HDMI!)
Single DisplayPort input, two HDMI inputs.
Note that the HDR is limited; it’s the DisplayHDR 400 level, which is the minimum in the current VESA DisplayHDR branding spec. I’ve found that it maxes out the brightness really fast on things like bright sky and white airplane bodies/wings, and can lose detail in those areas.
Also, HDR mode limits the color adjustments you can do on the monitor – if you want to try to compensate for the too-bright areas with brightness/contrast/gamma adjustment you have to do that from the NVIDIA Control Panel or I guess the AMD equivalent.
(I really wish MSFS just had a maximum brightness setting for HDR output; or else that Windows itself had this feature equivalent to the Xbox’s HDR calibration. This would allow automatic tone-mapping of bright areas, which seems to depend on the NVIDIA driver because it used to happen in MSFS for me until the NVIDIA driver updated recently. Hah!)
Overall I’m happy with it as the picture is clear, the size is what I want, and it’s giving me some experience with HDR so I know what I want to look out for in my next upgrade (which, sadly, will probably be MUCH more expensive to get the higher-quality HDR! )
