Benq made some interesting design choices on the XR3501 which some will love and some will absolutely despise. A 35" MVA panel at 144Hz is impressive to behold and one with "2000R Ultra Curve Technology" is even more so as it is a significantly higher curve than most other monitors. The 2000R is actually an industry standard and denotes the radius, in millimetres, of the circle this monitor would describe which in this case is 2 metres. Most other curved monitors are 4000-4500R, as in 4 to 4.5 metres radius.
On the other hand, the monitor does not have adaptive sync technology and the resolution of 2560x1080 will cause some disappointment, as may the ~$1000 price tag. You can either check out Hardware Canucks' full review here or just scroll on in disgust.
"Massive curved gaming monitors seem to be the flavor of the day and BenQ's XR3501 may be one of the most insane. It boasts a 35" curved MVA panel with a 144Hz refresh rate."
