    What is the best curved tv to use as a pc monitor?

    Something between 40-48 inches and preferably a 2016 Sammy. I've beed doing a lot of research and there are several models that support 4:4:4 chroma at 60hz. However, a lot of the feedback is conflicting and some seem to not have that option in every port and such. Is there a clear contender...

    Pinouts for this PSU available somewhere
