I bought this monitor on sales currently for $499.99 which seem like a good deal? for: 31.5" VA panel, low input lag, 144hz+, (WQHD)2560 x 1440@165 Hz , curved, Gsync. https://www.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/predator-model/UM.JZ1AA.001

However, I could only found handful of review online. and not sure if i got a good deal or not.

My monitor before this was dual 27" 1080p 60hz setup with GTX970. (the GPU cannot push the new monitor to 1440p 60hz. witcher 3)

My dilemma is not about my GPU (the worst case would just be upgrading the GPU), my dilemma is my usage on this monitor. I love my old setup because I could easily watch a full screen youtube on screen 1 and play other games on screen 2. OR play my PS4/Switch on screen 1 and watch/read something else on screen 2. (having console plug into 1 of the monitor is awsome). But now I cannot really do that on this Acer Predator monitor even tho the screen is so much bigger and better 32" vs (2)27".

Also, game i play on PC is usually not new new AAA title. I play mostly Esport (LOL,overwatch), and few old mmorpg.

I am thinking to return the Predator but want to see what you guys think, or any other recommendation that would not break my bank. I heard some ultra wide have a technology call PIP so eventually it will look like 2 monitor without the boarder? But they seem be to "narrow" on the vertical.
