I currently have 2x 27 inch Asus monitors (1920x1080@60hz) which i mainly use for work and Netflix now with little to no gaming. I'm noticing how poor the image quality is especially since i've been working from home.

I'm going to replace the PC soon as its fairly old (AMD R9 290 - 1x HDMI, 1x Display port & 2x DVI)

Size: 27 inch
Res: 2560 x 1440
Budget: £350 each

Is is worth going above 60hz if i'm not gaming?
What are curved screens like for web browsing, emails and Office 365?


Any recommendations?

Thanks.

Don't bother with curved screens. And go 4K - not 1440p - both for Netflix and for the higher quality text. Dell Ultrasharp all the way if you can get a deal.

You could consider a single 5K display but that might be out of your budget range.

I wont find a 27 inch 4k Dell monitor within my budget.
