Best Ultra Wide Curved Bang For Buck Monitor

I was somewhat hesitant to purchase this monitor (several weeks to be exact) due to the "too good to be true" price, but the mostly positive reviews and better overall ratings compared to similar monitors made me and click on this "Place" "Order" button. I have to say it's perfect for my needs. No dead pixels or blemishes, and the brightness levels (which many have called too low) worked well with the low brightness levels of the room they're currently in. The screen itself has a matte finish which is great for reducing/eliminating unwanted reflections. The stand seems sturdy; however, as mentioned, it has no height adjustment. This isn't a huge issue for me as the height and position of both the table and chair provide me with a near perfect ergonomic position (experience may vary, be forewarned). The speakers aren't great either, but if you use a headset like I do, or want to use a separate speaker system, that's not a problem. Minimum. As someone who has never used an IPS or TN monitor and has only owned a TV or laptop since the days of CRT monitors and processing speeds measured in MHz instead of GHz, this is a huge upgrade for me. My graphics card is an EVGA GTX 1660 Ti SC Ultra and seems to work great with this monitor. Just remember that you have to manually enable FreeSync via the menu (which only took a minute to get used to), and it works great with Nvidia G-Sync. No cracks, halos or artifacts that I see. My display output settings on my PC are set to 144Hz. I can crank it up to 200 and see what happens, although most people find they don't notice much of a difference between 144 and 200 on either monitor. However, it's nice to have the option if I want it. Overall, this monitor gives me everything I need and a few things I don't need but really need. If you have a GTX 1060, 1660, or 2060 graphics card and want to upgrade to an ultra-wide monitor, the 30-inch screen size and 2560 x 1080 resolution create the perfect Goldilocks zone where pixel density and immersion are on offer
