Does a good curved monitor with at least 1440p resolution exist for $500 or under?

Pretty much the title, except I need to be able to run it with a single Nvidia GTX 980.

(If possible, integrated speakers are always a plus)

If it is not available for $500, then please list the cheapest options.

Thanks!!

I believe this is the cheapest one which meets those specs. It's 21:9 (3440x1440):

If you don't want ultrawide, then Samsung makes the best curved monitors, though here's a list of all that exists on the market:

16:9 (1920x1080), curved, integrated (stereo) speakers:

-IPS- HP Pavilion 27c

-VA- Dell SE2716H
-VA- Samsung S27D590C
-VA- HP EliteDisplay S270c
-VA- Samsung S32E590C


IPS: In Plane Switching, near perfect viewing angles (depends on model, some are worse than others), great color accuracy, high defect ratio, low contrast.

VA: Vertical Allignment, decent viewing angles (depends on model), great color accuracy, low defect ratio, high contrast...

That's a nice monitor, but it isn't curved and it doesn't seem to have speakers. :(
Otherwise I would have gotten it.

Those are key differences, ignore all else.





All the best!

thx, i'll be looking into it. For now, it seems too expensive, I might wait a while.

Anyways, Thanks for the reply!
