Have used several, have to disagree. I still wish monitors were 16:10 aspect ratio, not 16:9. I use my 43" for some 3840x2160 video editing so anything that doesn't have 2160 pixels vertical resolution is not usable.

Definitely something to look at for a dedicated purpose gaming system. Also would take a single wide screen over two 1920x1200 side by side.

    Once you invest in a curved widescreen monitor, you will never go
    back.  Much better than Dual-Screen, and arguably better for most
    applications for computer use:

    I was part of a group developing programming tools for Tandem
    Computers back in the early 90s. Besides the programming
    productivity tools, we also identified environmental changes that
    would improve programmer productivity. The very top thing we
    identified for improving programmer productivity was larger
    screens and/or more screens. The larger, the better. Highly
    productive programmers need to track multiple details, and
    getting immediate visibility into as many as possible was seen as
    a major win.

    The only problem was that big screens were really expensive back
    in those days.

    Not a TV but a monitor.  Oh man, what a difference.  I can look
    through the tops of my trifocals and have both email and web
    browser up on the same monitor.
    I have Netflix running the background and it is so good that I
    can see compression artifacts now.
    I love this monitor.  Required zero zero zero config.
    Mini display port on my Microsoft Surface Pro docking adapter 
    now doing double duty as my desk top since going to Europe.
    Things just keep getting better.
