Curved Monitor

Post by Ghostlady »

Anyone have a curved monitor? Do you like it? Is it also good for playing the older games?

I have a Samsung 24" curved monitor. Bottom line is that I love it... I can't quite tell you why though. I was forced to use a smaller 22" flat screen for a week a month ago and was pleasantly surprised when I was able to connect my Samsung and how much easier on my eyes it was. I think it might have something to do with the way the eye perceives the edges of the picture on the screen. I game on mine with both older and new games. Last one was Dracula The Last Sanctuary from 2001.

If I had to guess, I'd say the larger the monitor size, the more benefit you would get from the curved screen.
