Question Real world experience on Normal, wide screen and wide screen curved monitors

[winr]

I have 2 x 32" Asus normal monitors

Have been looking online at 34" normal monitors and wide screen and curved wide screens

I found a few wide screens that are of course wider than my 32" monitors but 2" or 3" taller horizontal as well

What are yalls opinion as to the 3 different monitors typed please ??

I went from a 24" flat 1200p to a 1440p UW the Nixeus 34 edge one. I can't remember the curve number. But I honestly don't see the curve at all.
My desk is an L shape and it sits deeper back into the 90 that the 24 " did which allowed for better speaker placement.

Only gripe would be if something, a game didn't support 3440*1440p.
Diablo 4 loading screen used to fill entire screen then after s3 patch it's now a 16x10 aspect until the next loading screen. Then it's UW all the way.
BG3 was UW I don't remember any black bars there.
Btw old monitor was a Dell Ultrasharp from 2007 the expensive one. High quality IPS.

The 34 edge is a VA panel.

I don't find myself having to turn my head, sometimes adjusting mouse dpi to get across whole screen but I usually use a lower dpi.

No headaches no blurred peripheral vision. Looks same as if it was flat to me.

Edit. I also have a height constraint where my monitor is placed. (top shelf on one side of desk.)

That's not how math works.

What are your intended uses? Gaming?

Are you looking to keep using the current 2 x 32" and add one 34" curved to them, or replace with 1 x 34" curved or 2 x 34" curved or some other combination?

I could see using a single curved widescreen but not so much in a multi-monitor setup unless you aren't trying to integrate the image across multiple monitors for gaming... which I doubt you were doing previously with only two monitors anyway.

How about a larger flat monitor in the center, then on each side of it, the 2 x 32" monitors turned sideways?

Thanks guys

I will probably only use 1 monitor each for my 2 PC's, I like having a large monitor so I can sit back in my chair

I mainly read web sites about history, geology and such

I think that makes a difference. I am able to push mine deep.into the desk space with keyboard in front and mouse to the right.
My nephew has I believe a 27" curved and for me personally it's too close. Plus I think he's using his old one on the side for streaming stuff. But he's all squished up in that room.
