😆 spot on! Legit been doing research for my ps5 for the last 3 months. panel type -flat or curved -1080 or 1440-60hz or 120. Every comment on forums or every video like you said everyone has different take. I don’t need the best I just want a solid screen for the price. It’s burned me out and I kinda just stopped thinking about getting one.
So real it took me years to upgrade my PC. Now I find myself in the same sort of situation of finding a second monitor. Do i want a curved or flat monitor? which trickles to how curved? etc
Curved is made for movie watchers and single player gamers. I dont think its made for competitive gaming. So for sure ill buy either one idc as long as i get a good price
Flat every day of the week for me! Great video bud. Will say, however, there are a few VAs that buckle the trend in terms of motion clarity and response time!
I've got a 1440p asus 180hrz 34" curved monitor. this thing is awesome. there is nothing slow about it. there are different curve ratings also. they are not all curved like a boomerang. I was going to buy a flat screen but saw my roommates curved 34", watched his gaming experience and i was converted. I now have a 34" curved and thinking about returning it for a slightly larger one.
@@gueroloco6334 I've gamed on both competitively and the flat screen just allows the best FOV. With the large 30+ inch curved screen your head/eyeballs need to travel further to see targets which will add to the delay of your reaction inputs. That is why pros in the Esports scene play on only flat screens and the max size of a 27 inch screen (which is personally my favorite size). Don't get me wrong, curved screens are the ultimate immersive gaming experience for single player games or casual gaming but I game online and I like winning which is why I went with a 240hz .5ms 27 inch flat screen monitor. 😅
Thinking seriously about getting the Odyssey Neo G9 57 inch for the immersion. I'll probably need a stand to raise it to an appropriate height as most monitor stands are too short for comfortable viewing unless I slouch. Will be fun trying to find a stand for it though!
Main reason I was looking at this, was 'cause when I were checking the prices for 1440p monitors, I noticed that in 1 electronics store, the 2 cheapest ones were curved.
Curved or Flat I cant decide so have bought one of each from Gigabyte. Picked up the GS32Q and M32QC models. Both have similar specs just the M32 has more features which I probably don’t need but it was the cheaper of the two. I mainly play FPS but also some RTS games. Both have had great reviews and both have pros and cons. I’m leaning to wards the flat as that’s what I’m used to but should I give the curve a chance?
I had an 1800r curved IPS ultrawide and just got an OLED 800r curved ultrawide. Got to say the 800r is less immersive since the whole screen fits in your peripheral easier but I feel like it was less effort to hit my shots. I may be tripping and I'm gonna compare it to another 1800r OLED ultrawide and decide which one I want. 800r one I have is WOLED lg34gs95qe matte coating and the 1800r will be qd oled Samsung g85sb glossy.
Actually not depending on your head position. With a flat panel, there's one correct viewpoint; with a bent panel, none. To get an accurate display on one of these bent monitors, you need to render with cylindrical projection. GPUs and games are built for rectilinear.
that happened to me after using a curved monitor for 3 years it was so trippy, concave is the opposite of curved, it makes flat panels look like they go outwards its hard to explain
I currently have varying resolution monitors, but my main for a long time now is my Alienware 👽IPS 3440 x 1440p ultrawide 3420DW with an 1800R curve. It’s as curved a monitor as I personally would get as i found the 1500R and ~1000R curves to be waaay too extreme for my liking.
I always laugh when reviewers do things in games a normal users doesn't do to be like look see here how bad the black ghosting is when I move the mouse rapidly. I was able to get a GAMEPOWER 27" curved VA panel and was afraid I hate the black ghosting. While it does having it with testing it did not affect my gaming ability. I tested with good ol COD4 and my semi-pro abilities were not affect after I adjusted to the larger 27" from 23". Getting anywhere from 100-180 kills a game depending on how many others are playing. I played several other FPS games and after 5-10 minutes of getting my brain to adjust to the larger screen I did just as good as before on Counter Strike, CODV, BFV, BF2042 and a few others. I actually enjoyed my gaming sessions better with the bigger screen, blacker blacks and more vivid colors than my 23" IPS. I liked it so much I can't go back to an IPS as the colors just look washed out, blacks are gray etc. But hey what to I know after 26 years of being an IT Admin, gaming since I was 9 years old now my 46 year old eyes are not as good but I still kick some ass in most FPS games.
Why use "in theory" when what you mean obviously is "according to the sales pitch"? The theoretical advantages weren't even mentioned - one of a smaller focal distance spread, the other of using a smaller panel for a given field of view. Of course it comes along with the feature of the number of correct view points for 3D rendered graphics dropping from 1 to 0. Until the displays adapt and report curvature to match the viewer, bent displays remain a complication that simply doesn't improve picture. The one practical advantage is being able to push them further into a corner. Of course, hearing you go "4 by 3 square"... are you actively trying to be wrong?
@@jackrussell3084 I missed one other potential advantage, smaller (horizontal) viewing angle spread. This could improve colour consistency near the edges for a close observer, if the display panel has poor viewing angles to begin with.
Hi, I have always had a flat monitor. Until I got a curver monitor about 2 years ago. The only thing I noticed about it was the picture was slightly better. Because most of the recent flat monitors wherer 1080p And this new curved monitor was 2k. I never noticed the curve of the screen when sitting in front of it. As the picture seemed the same as a flat monitor. The last 1080p monitor was 60Hz and the new monitor was at 2k with a144hz refreh rate. It still did not notice it smooth out the motion on the screen and I was using a 3070 GPU. (Got theat one when Bitcoin miners where taking all the GPU's to mine on.) But after a few driver updates and setting the game up right for the monitor it was fine.

Clarification on the EVNIA - it's actually 175Hz, not the 240Hz I mentioned in the video. It's still the best gaming experience I've had though!
