Where can I compare prices for Philips 170B4MG 17" TFT .264 82kHz TCO03?

Not necessarily. Check the laptop port supports the required display mode and charging level.
Is a curved monitor always more immersive?
It depends on size, desk distance and use. Try it for text and multi-window work, not only video.
