I can't find any reviews, but I just ordered one from Wal-Mart. Site says it's an 1800R curvature.

Right, and curvature is 3000R, not 1800R, it's very slight.
As said, it's quite good for image editing and general purposes, not so good for gaming.
Read my small review on the official thread and, better, watch the PC Monitor review: it's not a matter of being only 60Hz, unfortunately the Philips (and so the AOC I imagine, as the panel is most likely the same) has serious issues in terms of ghosting and traililng as the panel is too slow to keep up with fast movements, so it's totally unadvisable for "serious" gaming.

I'm sorry that this is about a month old necro, but given that there aren't many 4k ultrawides, I think its fair that we make it clear exactly what we're talking about here so people can refer to this thread in the future (Additionally, this thread is very high on google search results of "AOC C4008VU8" so I'm probably not the last to visit this thread).
Just for clarification, the posts that you're talking about of the "official thread" is https://hardforum.com/threads/philips-bdm4037uw-40-flicker-free-curved-4k.1911173/#post-1042845044 correct? I know people can go and look that information themselves and make deductions, but if we're trying to help people its important to be as clear as possible what's relevant and what is talking about a different product--especially when products are simply rebranded.
Further, my question, being fairly incompotent noob, I can definitely see why a 5ms response time would be horrendous for games like CS:GO, Overwatch, Doom, ect that have lots of fast movement, but what about slower paced games such as Player Unknown Battlegrounds, DayZ, ect that are much slower paced with very few fast moving objects where the significantly wider viewing angle and higher pixel count would make a significant advantage as you'd be able to see objects signifcantly further away coupled with more of the horizon.
Not only that, its possible to have 2 monitors; one monitor for high fps/response time for one kind of game and another for other types of games (this is the kind of setup that I'm interested in, as I don't have a problem changing primary monitors in my setup).
I'm asking this because I don't know a whole lot of monitors, and I can definitely see how a monitor such as this would be unfavorable to "twitch reflex" games or even RTS style games; but it seems to me that it might not be so bad at all for turnbased strategy games or even Military simulations such as Arma 3. By having a second monitor that is more concerned with putting out frames faster along with a low ms response time, it seems to me that you can have the best of both worlds simply by switching the primary display. I'd really appreciate it if someone could let me know where my reasoning is wrong here.
