I want to go curved ideally. I really like the LG 45 inch models the oleds their 240hz. I can shop online or local. I think larger is better but I also cannot afford something outrageous . I won't post a budget as I'm very deal focused and can make moves to get the right purchase. I won't spend over 1000 USD and I will likely score the item half price or hunt until I get a unicorn deal.

For reference I've gamed on 60hz TV my entire life. Now I game on a 86inch tv at 120hz input lag is awful, the screen is awesome but generally it's 4k 60 turned down to 1080p 120hz. But I'm looking to up my refresh and response time to something good for battlefield 6.

I have never gamed outside of 1080p. I have no real idea other than to get an OLED and atleast 240hz prefer higher.

Any recommendations or advice? Sorry English is not my best.

Just remember OLEDs suffer from burn in. Hardware Unboxed/Monitors Unboxed has a whole series of best monitors to buy. I've linked one below.

Based on what I’ve been seeing, the latest crop from MSI and Asus of higher end OLED models seem to make burnin a bit of a non issue with their prevention methods. I own a 1440p Asus OLED panel as my primary monitor, I’m not careful with it, and I haven’t seen even a hint of burn in after running it for a year.

Now, will it last 5 years? 10? That remains to be seen, but I’m not really stressing on it.

I like MSI and I heard asus makes good monitors but I've never had any monitor. Strictly tv so I'm entirely new.

Check the YouTube channel "PC Builder". He regularly does comparison videos on most components, including monitors.
