I’m in the market for a new monitor and I wanted to get a ultrawide, I almost exclusively play videogames on my PC. I found some good candidates, but because of price I’m heavily leaning towards a flat panel instead of a curved one, namely AOC U34G3X.

Is a flat ultrawide panel much worse than a curved one for gaming? I’ve used flat panels since they started selling it, but the longer diagonal scares me a bit. I’m currently using a 27" flat panel.

Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions!

    I have the Samsung Odyssey G8 curved oled ultra wide. It’s incredible for content and gaming, but it has almost like chromatic aberration for text due to the pixel layout. I can deal with that, but my partner hates it. See if you can view one in stores if you’re thinking of spending goofy money.

      That’s another great monitor that I would totally get if I had the money, but unfortunately it isn’t the case haha thanks for the input though!
