New Monitor for Christmas

Ah well, easy come, easy go...

These curved monitors - do they offer less eye strain? Does it seem more comfortable to use GL?

[Ghostlady]

I don't notice less eye strain. The gaming seems more immersive though. Another plus is the width of the screens allows me to view more windows more easily.

As I stated on Ghostlady's original post, I don't even notice mine. Until I have to work on a flat screen... then I miss them being there. Couldn't quite tell you why, but I know I'll never be without a curved screen again!

I'm musing about a new monitor - can one ask how big was the monitor you got Ghostlady?

[draclvr]

I think she said hers is a 30". I had to get a new one a couple of weeks ago. My beloved 24" Samsung died. I ended up getting a 27" ASUS Tuf Gaming curved monitor. It is a beast and I absolutely love it. The curve is much more pronounced on this one.

I got a 30 inch curved. I will say I love it for gaming but for work, not so much. When I read email or work on an excel, there is too much white for me. I’ve played with the settings and turned the back light off but still too much white. I am going back to my smaller monitor for work.

Congrats on your new Monitor, looks really nice, enjoy.

[Ghostlady]

Thank you RaytheBear! It’s really fun to use for gaming.

Thanks for sharing that info!
