This is suppose to be one of the best value /quality 1440p monitors at the momment . There is a slightly cheaper 27 inch version and a 4k version coming soon.

The dell monitor looks nice I would advise @Sam cartledge to check out reviews before buying any monitor.

No just a lot of people on this forum recommending it and reviews seem positive.

It can be tricky sometimes picking a monitor wayin up the pros and cons.

Have you considered a super wide monitor for gaming gives you a great field of vision but there are compromises ?

I'd go 4k seeing as you are getting the PC for free.
The 3080 is a waste at any lower resolution than 2k imo. Butt order it when the computer actually turns up. Congrats.

Not for competitive fortnite, 1080p 240 or even 360hz is what you want.
