Curved Monitor Calculator
Find the ideal curve radius for your screen size and viewing distance
Enter Screen Size
Input your monitor’s diagonal size. Curved monitors are most beneficial for sizes 32 inches and above, especially ultrawide formats.
Select Curve Radius
1000R means the curve has a radius of 1000mm. Lower numbers = more aggressive curve. 1500R is most common for ultrawides.
Set Viewing Distance
Measure your typical sitting distance from the screen. Ideally, the curve radius should match your viewing distance for uniform focus distance across the screen.
Why Curve Matters
Curved screens wrap around your field of view, keeping all parts of the screen equidistant from your eyes, reducing eye strain on wide displays.
Ideal Curve Matching
The ideal curve radius equals your viewing distance. Sitting at 70cm? A 700R curve would be perfect, but 1000R-1500R is usually fine.
Curve vs Size
Larger screens benefit more from curvature. A curve on a 27" 16:9 is unnecessary, but essential for 49" 32:9 super ultrawides.
Gaming vs Productivity
Gaming benefits from immersive curves (1000R-1500R). For productivity and design work, flatter curves (1800R+) reduce distortion.
