Sure thing. Just spread some rep if you can Wink

Calibration was aiming for 6500K with gamma set to 2.2. So I calibrated with a brightness of 40, contrast 50, black boost 5. Color 2.2, color temp set to User, R Gain 48, G Gain 47, B Gain 47.

It's said you can adjust brightness without affecting the temperature or colors much. Rtings calibrates at 100 nits actually (for those that don't know).

Uploaded the .icm file and the DisplayCal report post-calibration.

I can try to calibrate again under the Warm color temperature setting. I think it should be more universal, and at 6600K it's already close to my target of 6500K. Just keep in mind the whole procedure takes roughly an hour, so give me a day or two if anyone is interested.

Slickdeals site doesn't allow me to upload .icm files, so I uploaded to Google Drive.

Order on Nov 1st so you can price adjust on Nov. 30th(Cyber Monday). 30 days for price adjustment for costco.com

I looked into this and general consensus is that this WILL NOT work. Most Costco employees online are saying they are told not to honor price adjustments for Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals and sales for items purchased beforehand. Of course, you can risk it but there isn't any guarantee you will get the price adjusted (most said if the item goes out of stock, Costco will definitely not price adjust).

This deal is super tempting but I will play it safe and hold out to the 30th just in case a similar Dell monitor goes on sale.

Edit: also found out that even using the Costco Visa Rewards CC will not qualify your purchase for the price rewind. It only applies to other stores' prices, not to Costco.

Got the Dell S3220DGF at best buy and liking it so far. Its got a fully adjustable mount and the build quality is great. This doesn't have that much more screen space that would make me change over.
I've got the dell too. Pretty happy with it but also ordered this acer. One of them will go back in December.

I don't have costco membership and their site says $60 is the cheaper option meaning I'm only saving $40 all in.

Is there another option?

I take it the return policy and price match/return+rebuy options are limited to members too?

I am torn between ultra wide 34" QHD like this one versus 16:9 4k 32" for regular office work, no gaming at all.

I assume there are no ultra wide 34" 4k. Also I wonder if Macbook pro can push that much resolution easily.

I am leaning towards QHD that is in this deal but also want best of the best display, don't care about refresh rate or response time.
you would definitely want the 34 ultrawide for your use case.

Please let us know which you prefer. Dell monitors are top notch but this acer is tempting

Deal is on November 30 not today. Some are buying now and will ask for a price adjustment on November 30.

Appears there isn't one and touts its built in speakers to save desk space. Shame, that's a deal breaker for me.
