I am currently in the process of putting a new build together and i have decided to upgrade to either an Acer Predator x34 or an Asus PG348Q monitor, i am wondering what kind of graphics card i would need for this, i don't play a lot of games but i do a fair amount of video editing and i would like something that can handle the load comfortably, any suggestions that are offered will be appreciated.

1080ti. Technically even a 1070ti/1080 will do because you dont play much games and all 10 series card can supply enough frames for 1440p ultrawide at 100Hz, but since next gen Nvidia xx80 card is rumoured to be over $1000 each, a 1080ti is a better buy.
