thinking of getting son a monitor for his gaming laptop. Laptop is a 15.6" HP gaming laptop - AMD Ryzen 5 - 8 GB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050. Laptop was bought in 2019. Still runs great, lots of space and all.

Not sure what is compatable? What should I look for? Id like to get a curved one.

it depends what type of games you are playing to be honest. if you are playing AAA games on a GTX1050 you are likely limited to low quality 1080p. so it wouldn't make sense to get something more than a 1080p. my 2 cents on 1080p is for a monitor anything over 22-24" looks trashy. and at 24" i'm not sure you need a curved monitor. but it's really about personal preference and budget.

Agreed, ultimately it will depend on the games you intend to play. However, with an old GTX 1050, I wouldn't put a lot of $$$ into it. Perhaps a monitor that supports 1080p but I wouldn't spend a bunch on it with a graphics card like that.
