Frequently Asked Questions - GM34-CW CM Storm

How to clean the screen of my GM34-CW monitor?

Turn off and unplug the monitor. Use a soft cloth slightly dampened with a solvent-free cleaning solution. Gently wipe the screen without applying pressure. Do not spray directly onto the screen.

How to adjust OSD settings?

Press one of the buttons under the bezel to open the quick navigation menu. Use the arrows to navigate and the E button to confirm. The manual details each option: brightness, color, image quality, etc.

What is FreeSync and how to activate it?

FreeSync (Adaptive Sync) synchronizes the monitor's refresh rate with the graphics card to reduce tearing and stuttering. Enable it in OSD menu > Other > FreeSync. Make sure to use a compatible DP cable and a graphics card that supports FreeSync.

How to connect my GM34-CW to my PC?

Use an HDMI or DisplayPort (DP) cable depending on your graphics card. Connect one end to the monitor and the other to the PC. Turn on both devices. If necessary, select the input source in OSD menu > Input Source.

How to change the input source (HDMI/DP)?

Press the quick navigation button (button 1) then select 'Input Source'. Choose between DP1, DP2, HDMI1, or HDMI2. You can also access via OSD menu > Input Source.

How to activate HDR mode?

Press the HDR quick button (button 4) in Quick mode, or go to OSD > Other > HDR and set it to On. Make sure your source supports HDR content.

Can I use the monitor with two sources simultaneously (PIP/PBP)?

Yes. Enable PIP or PBP mode in OSD menu > Multi-Window. Choose the secondary input, size, and position. The Swap option allows swapping the main and secondary sources.

What to do if the screen flickers or shows artifacts?

Check the cable connection, try another cable (preferably DP 1.4). Disable FreeSync if flickering persists, update the graphics card driver. If the problem continues, reset the monitor in OSD > Other > Reset.

How to install the wall mount?

Remove the stand by unscrewing the fixing screw. Attach the wall mount (not included) to the back of the monitor using the VESA mounting holes (100x100 mm). Follow the manual instructions for safe installation.
