My local microcenter has one in stock for around my price range.

Just want to see if anyone prefers the curved over flat and why.

Using a 23" 1080p 50hz flat and would like something bigger and the curved screen sorta caught my eye. Being microcenter i got asked 50 times if i needed help so i asked if they could hold it till the weekend to see if i wanted it.

Get flat. Curved is just a marketing trick. Curved has more narrow viewing angle for example.

Thats what i was reading, i just didnt have the time to actually sit down in front of one to get play time in and see how i like it.

Any recommended moniters for around $300? Might spend more if my 2 moniters sell.

Depends what you want from your monitor. I personally like Dell Ultrasharp screens for superior picture quality and wide adjustment on the stand. Some prefer monitors with higher refrehsrate.

dell ultrasharps are awesome

In order to offer you any more in-depth knowledge we need to know what sort of games you play and how often you delve in the world of bluray rip movies.

Curved is the balls if you're playing ultrawide

and if you're not, what the fuck are you doing
