Hello!
Please excuse my lengthy question as I do not know much about monitor and can't find any other way to find out what I am experience is normal or not.
Recently I acquired a 27 inch 1080p curved monitor after using my old one at1650 x 1050 for many many years. The one thing I notice is that my games have a wider look to them, especially playing dark souls 3. I know the screen is much larger compared to my old one which was only 22 inches, But i am wondering if this is normal. To explain better when i am playing a game it's like there is more of a wide screen effect, or rather things were stretched from side to side, like i lost height and gained more width if that makes sense, While on the old one everything visually seemed even from top to bottom side to side. For example A castle on my old monitor would look taller, on my new one it looks somewhat wider. Now using the internet like youtube facebook etc everything seems even and fine, but in games it seems different. If this is normal please excuse my question, If not any helpful tips on how to correct it would be helpful. Also resolution on desktop is same as in game and drivers are updated.
