Why AREN'T you gaming on a curved monitor /v/?
>>
>>729427859
Because I'm on a superior non-curved monitor.
>>
>>729427859
why would i get a new monior?
>>
my 24 inch samsung syncmaster does just fine
>>
because my monitor works
>>
>>729427859
had a 1080p curved monitor for ~5years, upgraded to a normal 1440p monitor and genuinely stopped noticing the lack of a curve after like 5 minutes of using it. Such a nothingburger feature
>>
because the games render for a flat surface so it's distorted if you put it on a curved monitor
>>
>>729428358
The curve is really only relevant on large monitors. It keeps the edges in your FOV.
>>729428426
This is true, but your brain can adjust to a curve to where you see a non-distorted image. That's why taking a picture of a curved monitor looks weird compared to just looking at it. It happens immediately, but going back to flat takes a few minutes.
>>
Curved monitors only exist because VA panels are washed out at the edges so they were curved to mitigate the flaw and of course gamers being what they are bought it as a feature.
>>
>>729427859
I am accidentally, lol. Didn't read before I ordered it. That being said it was a huge upgrade refresh rate wise over my previous monitor (going from 60 to 165 hz, though I locked it at 120) and has a nicer display in general, so I'm really happy with it.

IMAX is a gimmick that when not shot explicitly for, looks fucking retarded, I always assumed curved is about the same.
TVs aren't curved
Movie screens aren't curved
Phones aren't curved
Laptops aren't curved
Handhelds aren't curved
So why should monitors be curved
>>
>>729427859
I game on my laptop in bed and I don't think they make curved laptops.

>your brain can adjust to a curve to where you see a non-distorted image
What kind of retarded logic is that? If you stop seeing the curve after a while, then it might as well not be there in the first place.
>>
Curved monitorbros, is it weird playing games or watching stuff? I would expect a warped image or something, but is it fine?
>>
>>729427859
I am looking into 21:9 monitors and apparently they are all curved somewhat. There is no way around it
>>
>>729431823
For ultrawides curved makes sense.

you got it backwards, actually
>>
>>729431616
Curved televisions don't make sense because there is a higher chance someone isn't sat directly in front of the display. For a monitor, curves make sense to keep the sides of the display are an equal distance from your eyes.
There is no "warping" or distortion, its extremely subtle.
>>
>>729432241
I wonder if retards actually fall for this kind of pic.
>>
I don’t have curved eyes
>>
>>729427859
Only has any point on ultrawide.
And ultrawide isn't worth the hassle, retards with ultrawide monitors are constantly having problems due to poor support.
>>
>>729432634
yea you do
>>
>>729429464
you forgot one thing.
my penis is curved.
when your cock curve matches the same degree as your monitor your brain will hit 17mhz wave lenght and you will get laid immediatly
>>
>>729432743
No I was born with square eyes. The doctor called it “Nintendo shitcube-itis”
