Check the variant: the original G34WQi is VESA 75x75mm and the 2026 model is 100x100mm. FreeSync Premium is certified for DisplayPort only, and Evetech's monitor accessories run from R399 to R3,799.
Two monitors carry the Xiaomi G34WQi name, and they do not share a VESA pattern. The original uses a 75x75mm mount, the 2026 model uses 100x100mm, so the wall bracket or arm that suits one can fail to bolt onto the other. FreeSync Premium has a catch too: Xiaomi certifies it for DisplayPort only.
Check which version you own before buying a mount. The original Xiaomi G34WQi is VESA 75x75mm and the G34WQi 2026 is VESA 100x100mm. FreeSync Premium is certified over DisplayPort, so use that cable for the safe route. Evetech's monitor accessories run from R399 to R3,799, which covers stands and arms.
Both are 34 inch curved gaming monitors with a 3440 x 1440 resolution and a 180Hz maximum refresh rate. The mounting holes on the back are where they differ: 75x75mm on the original, 100x100mm on the 2026 model. Measure the distance between the holes, centre to centre, in both directions, before you order.
The easiest check is the model name on the sticker behind the stand. If it says 2026, expect 100x100mm. If it carries no year, treat it as the original and confirm by measuring. A shop headline that only says G34WQi is not enough to go on, so confirm before you order.
Xiaomi says the FreeSync Premium certification applies to DisplayPort only. That is about what was tested and certified, not a promise that HDMI can never carry variable refresh rate. Both versions give you two DisplayPort and two HDMI inputs, and the 2026 model lists DisplayPort 1.4 and HDMI 2.0.
The practical route is simple. Use DisplayPort for the certified experience at the full 180Hz. If you must use HDMI, test it: open the monitor menu to enable adaptive sync, check your graphics driver control panel for a G-Sync or FreeSync option, and run a game with an on-screen refresh counter. If the option is greyed out, the cable and port are not doing it.
Size is the second trap after VESA. The Winx Rise Pro single arm, R699 at Evetech, supports 17 to 32 inch monitors up to 9kg, and the dual version at R1,199 lists the same size range. A 34 inch ultrawide sits above that listed range, so look for an arm whose own specification covers 34 inches and the weight of your screen before you buy.
Wide curved panels also hang differently from flat ones. Leave room behind the desk for the arm to swing, and check the clamp can grip the thickness of your desk. In a small Pretoria flat or a res room, where the desk sits against a wall, that clearance is easy to forget.
The monitor accessories shelf is the starting point for arms, stands and risers. If you are still choosing a screen, the gaming monitors list and the monitor best sellers show what other buyers pick, including ultrawide models.
It depends on the version. The original G34WQi is VESA 75x75mm and the G34WQi 2026 is 100x100mm.
The certification covers DisplayPort only. HDMI may offer adaptive sync on some setups, but you need to test your own monitor, cable and graphics card.
Possibly, since certification is not the same as capability. Enable adaptive sync in the monitor menu and check your graphics driver, and use DisplayPort if it is greyed out.
Read the model name on the rear sticker or box, and measure the mounting holes. Square hole spacing of 75mm means original, 100mm means the 2026 model.
Evetech's accessories shelf ranges from R399 to R3,799 and includes arms like the Winx Rise Pro at R699 and R1,199.
Not necessarily. Many arms list 17 to 32 inches, so confirm the arm's size and weight rating covers a 34 inch curved screen.

No, the original DJI Mic Mini transmitter has no internal storage, so it cannot record a backup on its own. It can pair to a phone over Bluetooth, and a two-transmitter kit puts each speaker on a separate stereo channel.

Yes, Volkano says the Quantum stores music on the watch itself, so you can listen without carrying a phone. Plan on Bluetooth earbuds to hear it, and note that local storage does not mean Spotify offline playback.

Yes, Football Manager 27's published minimum names Intel HD 530, so integrated graphics can be enough. Steam lists 6GB RAM minimum and 12GB recommended, which puts Evetech's HP 15-fc0115ni at R10,799 in range.

Free up to 212 GB on your PS5, because Rockstar says the install size depends on the device. That is a heavy pull on capped South African LTE, and Evetech lists a 500GB WD Blue SN5100 NVMe M.2 2280 drive at R1,999 to check against Sony's fit rules.
Yes, but wired only: Steam lists full DualSense support for Sonic Pico Park as USB only. For a braai-weekend couch session, a spare MARVO GT-90 Gamepad is R269 at Evetech and the GameSir Nova Lite is R349.
