I’m in the market for a new monitor. My 32" LCD is nice but now I have some spending money and really want to move up to an OLED display, as they seem to be maturing nicely and can give me an amazing bump in refresh rate.

Many OLED displays are curved, of course. All ultrawides are, some severely so (800r!!!)
I’ve always shied away from curved monitors because I feel like it could distort the appearance of some solid/2d geometry vs a flat panel. (I’m also not crazy about the desk space they occupy either, but I can work around that).

Do any of you use CAD packages (solidworks, inventor, autocad) on curved monitors, and if so how well does it appear? My target would be a 34" or 42" 4k display.

    Be careful with OLED, I’ve been looking at getting one for a work, and basically all the models right now go dim our shit off after a couple minutes of inactivity to save the OLED pixels from burning in. There were enough complaints for me to hold off until it matures a little more
