Does a curved monitor work on all pc?

[FangoMango]

Hi so I'm wanting to get a curved monitor and I just saw that someone said you need a curved graphics card so will a curved monitor work on all pcs I know I prolly sound stupid just want to know before I buy


Also I googled it couldn't find anything

yes, it will work on any graphics card that supports the resolution, and that has nothing to do with the curved part.

No, there is no difference between a curved monitor and a flat monitor.
That said, curved monitors often have higher resolution. This higher resolution can in some cases require a decent GPU to push. For example, if you got a 1440p ultrawide, you'd need a graphics card able to push 3440x1440, which is quite a lot, for gaming you'd need a top of the line graphics card in order to keep frame rates playable.

I got a i5 and a r7 250 gpu I know it's low end in upgrading soon so if I got this monitor https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01CX26WIG/ref=ox_sc_act_image_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A35C7EQPY8NHP
Would it work

yep, you should be good.

This is just a 1920x1080 monitor. The curve makes no difference to requirements.
It is a VA type panel, so black levels should be very good.

So if I buy it it will be fine with my graphics card and cpu

yes, from the GPUs perspective, its just a 1920x1080 monitor.

If you already have a 1920x1080 monitor, the performance will be exactly the same as now, but with a better picture.
Your Radeon R7 250 is not going to allow the highest settings in some games, but that hasn't changed from what you have now.
