I currently am using a older Viotek curved 31 inch monitor that has a few spots on the screen where it is a pinhole of white light. Not in a horrible area but still. This monitor was given to me used by a friend of my sons when he went to jail. Long story but figured giving his shit away was better than it going in the trash. We stored his tools and important things he owned. He is out but homeless so we sill keep storing his stuff until he gets on his feet. Just the right thing to do. Anyway I just saw a LG 35inch Ultrawide Curved Monitor that I think will be a big upgrade for my COD2 playing and the YouTube videos I watch etc. I don't do much else yet on my PC but wondering if anyone else has used this model or opinions on curved Monitors. I am getting older and the eyes aren't as good as they used to be and I sit about 3ft from screen so I think feeling immersed more in the game might help me be able to kill that hacker @Dirk Diggler. Fucking Bunny Hopper. Here is a link to the MFG site https://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-35wn65c-b-ultrawide-monitor . I have found a brand new one from Costco.com for like $279.00 and free shipping to my house and free returns for 1 year. Thanks for reading this and any advice including Dirks, he knows Computers and codes and settings I am sure. BlackRose and Dirk Diggler 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Monitor is bigger than the TV I have mounted on the wall over the dresser we watch from Bed. I doubt I will be able to get a monitor any bigger than this one to even fit and still have my eyes focused on the center of the screen. I am pretty sure many of the guys I play against run much bigger screens because they claim to see shit I just can't see especially on the sniper maps but I can still see movement and things that aren't supposed to be there and shadows of bodies etc. Wish I had a dedicated room to set up the way I want in order to really game with surround sound I could crack up to feel the rumble, sound proofing so I could use my mic, huge screen, secondary monitor for R-Con, Gaming Chair for maximum comfort etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one above is 100hz which isn't horrible, that's what I run cause my video card is older and doesn't support 144, and the response time is showing 5ms, typically for gaming, ideally you want 1 - 2ms. As for the monitor style, I have a 34" curved ultra wide and do like it, even for just mainly playing these older COD games. In the end, whatever suits your needs, support of current hardware, and budget. There's lots to choose from. PHUCKITMAN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Because it runs on a 3 axis format every time I tried to play it I would get motion sick, same with COD5 which I actually enjoyed a bit more but with the gun moving in a different direction it was really affecting my balance and made me break out in cold sweats and becoming dizzy and queasy. I have a long history of migraine headaches and got motion sickness when traveling by car as a kid so the Dr's tell me that it is best I avoid games that make me not feel good. It is a complete bummer as the graphics advances and storys and all make me want to play newer titles but I just can't risk it. I am not avoiding everyone else in the clan or stuck in the turn of the Century game titles it is just the only ones I like that I can play for several hours at a clip on the weekends just like when COD2 came out. COD4 and COD5 after about 30 minutes I have to completely stop gaming and lay down and take a medication that makes me sleepy or I end up with a migraine and sometimes retching.
