Curved isn't good for CS because you only focus on a very tiny part of the monitor on the center. Even a flat 25" monitor could be too big depending on your eye-focus but it's way better than a curved one - and a 27" one.
Optimal size for monitors for CS are 23-25,5" monitors.

I personally have the most known and best monitor for CS in the 144hz version:
BenQ xl2536
When you want a better one, get that one in 240 hz.
Im using the msi MAG271C and im feeling no difference ( in my opinion ). You just have to get used to it at the beginning, but then it's perfect :)

If the curve and size don't bother you, the crosshair smearing will.

VA panels are distracting for CS.

Gotta love those comments. He doesn't add anything to the thread and has absolutely no idea about anything linked to the topic but writes one random toxic trollcomment. Congratz.

Also who talks about the most expensive one? 500 dollar for a monitor is nothing compared to many other monitors. There are A LOT of expensive monitors with 4k resolution, big monitors, curved ones and more. 500 dollar is the low-mid budged class sector for PC monitor. And compared to all other monitors it's the best one and has an insane price/performance ratio. It has everything you need and the best values for it. It is THE CSGO monitor

BenQ stands for the best quality monitors in the gaming sector. Also DyAc and S Switch are awesome.

There are other brands that suffice. Especially when you don`t want to spent 500 bucks.

Where am I bragging!? Are you even serious? Jesus christ.
And I'm not salty, I just highly dislike toxic random comments like your two comments here. You're only provocating and assume silly stuff, what's up with you???

I also said that this is THE BEST CSGO monitor and I even said in my very first comment that I have the cheaper (144 hz) version of that monitor. OPs price section is even higher than mine so he can also easily buy the 144hz version for way less money. I look at the money OP has and the price section he wants to buy stuff and then I check what he can buy in that section. When he'd say he has only 120 dollar I wouldn't say that he should buy the monitors I just linked. But that's too complicated for you.

But yeah as I said you're just toxic and try to start a flamewar here. I never saw you in the csgo discussion and the very first two comments are directly those ones. Great forum user. :steamfacepalm:

Blocked and reported.

you are the one starting a flame war here bro.

i just said if you dont want to spent 500 bucks on a monitor there are other brands who produce good ones. You didnt even reply to that and now your mad because nobody pats you on the back for spending 500 € on a screen and tells you how good and awesome you are because YOU HAVE THE BEST CS GO MONITOR. Thats what you really wanted. If not, why not just link the monitor and its stats and write down some details on why you think this is the best screen. You had to write "and i have it" lol. Your personal opinion doesnt mean anything though. Just saying..

this discussion is about curved or flat monitors anyway dude... not about your gear.

it baffles me how incredibly huge your ego is....

also .. I game on a flat monitor. I tried curved and had the feeling i had to sit very far away from it for some reason and also my res 4:3 streched was weird on it.

It's nice for many other games, especially for racing games. 4k, high contrast rate etc. all can make the experience for many games way better. CS is rare in that case because it doesn't require high resolution nor a curve, it needs a high response/reaction time and high hz rate, it shouldn't even be too big(because of the eye focuse in this game) so CS player can safe some money in terms of monitors. For racing games for example there isn't even a limit. The more you pay the better quality you'll have. You can even get 3 ultrawide 4k monitor 2k+ each and it will make the game experience better. But not in CS.
