The CF791 is a flashy white and silver 34-inch model, but the more subdued CFG70 works better for gaming purposes. It has AMD FreeSync Technology and a speedy 1ms response time. It’s also competitively priced in comparison to other 24- and 27-inch gaming monitors.

If you can’t wait that long, the CF791 and CFG70 are expected to hit stores in Q4.
