Does anyone have any comments on using a larger curved Monitor?  Currently using 3 27 inch, and one just took a dump. Correction 2 27 inch...

That would be interesting Budman going from 3 displays down to one curved. Let me do a search on this. I wonder if the curved would be better. 

OK found lots to choose from. Some of this may help. 

The Best Curved Monitors for 2024

I like this Samsung. Heck this wide of a display.. heck yet it has to be better than three displays. @TBB needs three of these to make a circle so he can be surrounded by his porn collection.

Ultrawide vs. dual monitors: Which should you choose?

Here is something that may or may not be an issue with a ultrawide display. I guess Window management. Someone with one can confirm or deny this one. 

That being said...

I like this verdict.

Dual or triple monitors are usually used for multitasking where as ultra wide curved are typically used for gaming. The curved monitor will usually have a higher refresh rate offering a much smoother experience. Your field of view will also be greater and will not be broken up by the added bezels.

I use a 34" curved ultra wide, 3440 x 1440 144Hz, 1ms.  Great for gaming although new games would benefit more I think than the older COD games but enjoy it in any case.  For the distance I sit from my monitor, I don't think I'd want to go bigger otherwise I think the viewing angle would be too much.

I use my 4k 65" ROKU TV for gaming.

Has a gaming mode with remarkably low input lag.

It's about 6' away.

I have it mounted on a stand with casters, so I turn it 90° to play at my desk & turn it back to plop in my bed & enjoy watching movies & YouTube. 

It's a TCL 65R625.

They make a good product at a fair price point.
