widescreen 75hz IPS 1080p 29" or Curved 144hz VA 27"

Hi, i'm building a new pc and i'm debating which monitor should i choose

 

The Pc i am gonna buy is probably this : https://pcpartpicker.com/list/3b9xqk (some parts are different from the ones on the list : the ram, the motherboard and the power supply) (the prices are corresponding to where i am from [Portugal]) ( if you can make a better build for 1300€ drop it on the comments pls)

 

I am debating on this two monitors : (Sticking to a 300€ more or less)

LG 29UM69G-B IPS 29" UW-UXGA 21:9 75Hz FreeSync :https://www.pcdiga.com/monitor-lg-29um69g-b-ips-29-uw-uxga-21-9-75hz-freesync?utm_source=rtbhouse&utm_medium=retargeting&utm_campaign=rtbhouse-retargeting

and 

MSI Optix G27C VA 27" FHD 16:9 144Hz FreeSync (which is on sale) :https://www.pcdiga.com/monitor-lg-29um69g-b-ips-29-uw-uxga-21-9-75hz-freesync?utm_source=rtbhouse&utm_medium=retargeting&utm_campaign=rtbhouse-retargeting

 

The monitor is going to be mostly focused on gaming but i would like to see vivid colors on it.

 

 

PS:Let me know if you don't understand my english since i wasn't born in an english speaking country

On what games do you want to use it? If I were you and have more fps games than casual games get the 144hz but if not get the 29" freesync monitor.

Personally I favour the ultrawide but both are nice options... it is a matter whether you need those 144hz or not.

Do you play much of cs or more of other games? If more of other games, I agree with the other one to get ultrawide or larger monitor.

I'm mostly asking this because the majority of the people tend to notice a difference when switching from 60 to 144hz

My rule of thumb if i were to have a system that has power more than 7600k and gtx 1060 is to have a ssd. So anything will do.

If you would use it other than csgo, i suggest to have a monitor with better image quality.

I think I am right in saying 2x8GB RAM will perform better when under stress from games re min FPS than 1x16GB RAM due to the increased bandwidth of using 2 channels.

But then if you want to add more RAM you would need to swap out the 8GB sticks.
