But in fact, larger monitors in daily use will be because of the problem of left and right line of sight, so that the head, eye rotation amplitude and frequency increase, extremely easy to fatigue, mushrooms are not recommended to buy a monitor that is too large. But if you say it's a curved display, there won't be such a problem.

6. Summary
HKC's VG32C2Q esports monitor is still very good, cost-effective, suitable for gamers who want to pursue a larger screen. At this price, to give 32 inches, 1000R curved screen, 2K resolution, 144Hz refresh rate, but also has a 1ms response and excellent color gamut, color accuracy performance, overall is still very worth starting.
32-inch screen with 1000R curved screen, daily use will be very cool, look at a variety of pictures will have some shocking feeling, especially when playing games, this shock, immersion feeling will be a little more intense.
In terms of details, this display has a built-in power supply design, this mushroom is very popular and praised!
However, due to cost constraints, the stand of this monitor only supports pitch adjustment, which is slightly more awkward for daily use. However, the cheap graphics card bracket has been less than 100 yuan, which is not a problem, anyway, the standard monitor bracket is definitely not better than the third party.
Thank you!
