I am used to having IPS panels in my gaming room, which is light controlled to the point that it's basically dark other than the computer displays themselves. I have always been disappointed with the anti-glare coatings used. They always bother me as I just see that grainy blur everywhere when I'm trying to see past the panel into the content. I keep seeing the panel. It's distracting.
So how is it on the X34? I have read that the X34 has a somewhat less aggressive coating. Can anyone using an X34 in a dark room please tell me how the coating looks? I have read that there is definitely some grain, but not any patterns or readability issues. Does it introduce any haze or blurring? I really wish this was an option with all displays - to choose no anti-glare coating, i.e. glossy. That said, maybe I've just never seen a "less aggressive" ag coating.
I have read methods of removing the coating, but I won't risk it. Can the X34 be ordered without somehow directly through Acer?
The only glossy IPS I've ever had was an Overlord 27" 1440p, which I'm currently using, but it's a nightmare of other problems and the company went out of business leaving my RMA dangling in the breeze. So I'm stuck replacing it and am hopeful this X34 is the one. But like I said, I really did like the glossy screen. So clean and clear.
