i just had boughten the ASUS ROG Swift PG279Q Monitor which goes for around 800$, I was wondering if I should return it and get something else for my build maybe upgrade something internal or just stick with that. What do you guys think I should do?

1440P high refresh or 4K 60FPS should both be doable with a single 1080Ti. so basically, if you want the high refreshrates stick with the Swift, but if you want 4K but with a slower refresh rate get something else.
