The 144hz 1440p Dell is incredible. It's a TN but has almost no distorted view angles. It looks like an IPS to me.

Got mine from Amazon for $450. The price has been wiggly between $430-$500 the last month. It's an incredible value.

Curved monitors are good because the viewing angle at the edge naturally curve towards you. This reduces the unusual color(light fall off) you some times see because you're not directly facing the monitor.

The biggest problem i have seen with curved monitors is the fact they tend to have some pretty bad glow in the corners which make it pretty shit in a dark room or similar dark environment.

I don't care about 144hz since I'm not a manchild.
