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. https://www.pcmag.com/picks/the-best-curved-monitors Ultrawide vs. dual monitors: Which should you choose? https://www.pcworld.com/article/395110/ultrawide-vs-dual-monitors.html 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. BUDMAN 1

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.

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. ALanHim and BUDMAN 2 Awards

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. Edited June 1, 2024 by Timmah! BUDMAN 1 Awards
