MERGED QUESTION
Question from matt.themcgee : "IPS flat or TN curved?"

So I'm looking into 2 different monitors same price range, same resolution(1440p), same refresh rate(165Hz). The only real differences are one is IPS and flat while the other is TN and curved. I don't know what to go for. I'll mostly be using it for gaming as well as media consumption. Help much appreciated.

That is entirely up to your eyeballs and the specific monitors.

Some will say that IPS is better than TN for <whatever> Others will say just the opposite.
The actual monitor and your eyeballs matter far, far more.

Curved vs flat?
Some people like curved, some people don't.

I prefer the colors of IPS/VA over TN. As for the curve it depends on the size of the screen and your distance away from the screen.
