I have a rx 580 4gb and a ryzen 5 2600 cpu. Will this be able to run well for gaming on a 30 inch 1440p ultra wide monitor? Or should I just get a 1080p ultrawide?

Depends on the game, I suggest upgrading the GPU if you want to run modern games with demanding graphics at 1440p.

Gaming With a 4:3 CRT
