Can anyone recommend a large curved computer monitor that would be suitable for office work without breaking the bank? I'm thinking 32" based on what I happened to read somewhere on the internet, but that's not based on anything really... actually the one I've been looking at is https://www.amazon.ca/Dell-UltraShar.../dp/B00PXYRMPE, but I'm not sure I can justify spending $850 on a monitor. This will be for office use (word/excel/coding/email/web) and I like to use it to have multiple things open side-by-side.

I don't do anything with graphics or color so I don't need anything fancy (I don't think). I've been working on a 23" flat monitor that I purchased for around $200 back in 2012 - but on the other hand, I'll be working on it everyday, I can afford it, and I'll likely use it for another decade if possible.

I also had a killer dual monitor setup on my office workstation a few years back, but these were ultra high end Dells that were around $2k USD a piece IIRC. I'm definitely not planning to spend that much, but I would entertain the dual monitor idea (especially if it was cheaper).

Thanks!
