We’ve seen a lot of OLED gaming monitors with impressive refresh rates recently, and some of them are pretty good. Acer’s 4K, 32-inch Predator X32X QD-OLED display marks itself out from the pack by sporting a 1700R curve, which will instantly endear it to some and cause others to come out in the kind of rash that gets you thrown out of the doctor’s waiting room.
I’m not here to convert anyone to the Church of the Holy Curve, but every time I use a curved screen I have a kind of epiphany. The cute pink bunny rabbit that lives on one of my shoulders whispers pleasantly in my ear that having the edges of the screen bend toward you is actually quite nice, given how close we tend to sit to PC monitors. It doesn’t make as much sense for a TV that’s across the room, but having a 32-inch screen on your desk that looms in your peripheral vision is actually pretty good for gaming, providing you’re sitting in the right place.
