Switched back from mac to PC earlier this year and went for a 32" iiyama (2560x1440).
A couple of things still don't sit right with me :

Looking right into the corners feels a bit wierd because of the head movement ... although not a *huge* issue.
Windows UI is just too chunky. Elements are way too big (I know this is a growing problem in UI design in general IMO). I've reduced the height of toolbars etc through tweaking as much as I can but I still don't feel as though I have enough screen real estate. I find myself minimising windows too much.

So I'm thinking 4k, possibly curved 4k to help offset that.

I'm not a big gamer, so I'm not fussed if I have to play a game at a lower resolution. (GeForce GTX 1660 Ti). Mostly desktop work and some Photoshop stuff.

I was looking at the Dell S3221QS which was mentioned in another thread.
32" curved 4k. I understand its only 60Hz and everyone is clamouring for 144Hz 4k. I have no idea if this will be an issue with me not really gaming.

Appreciate that these threads are ten a penny now, but I would love some guidance.

Cheers :)
