Is This LG monitor good enough?

For a low end widescreen setup it is perfect. 

 

If you have a video card that is equal to or better than a GTX 1080 go with a 3440 X 1440 version though it would probably cost twice as much.

 

I use the 3840 X 1600 version that has the same 75hz and the same HDR. I think it is a perfect match for my 2080 ti. 

 

I does have cheesy HDR but it looks better than no HDR in games that support HDR.

I was looking at buying a monitor under $300, and found this one. I saw some videos on how stretched 1080p on a screen this big wouldn't be a good idea, but my cousin has a monitor with a similar res and screen size, and it looks fine. I'm particularly looking for something like an ultrawide because I don't want to have to buy another monitor soon due to not having enough screen real estate.

60hz? I saw that it can go to 75hz, which is fine for me.
