34" Ultra WQHD curved monitor reqd

Hi all,
looking to replace my 32" 165Hz g-sync Hanns-G curved monitor.
Ideally i want an approx. 34" Ultrawide. I'll be upgrading my rig from i5-10600k and RTX2070 for probably an i5-13600k and RTX3080 Ti (if the prices drop a little), however i'm not sure if g-sync is still a legit "thing" or if i should be looking for adaptive sync.
I play FPS games almost exclusively, so decent fresh rate is important.
When not gaming the ultrawide res will be useful for side-by-side windows of various apps.
Budget of maybe £700 for the monitor.

TIA

If you're not in a rush then might be worth waiting for pricing (and possible vouchers) on the freesync Dell QD-OLED

QD-OLED really, there isn't anything better.

£879 its launching at. Hopefully their will be stackable dell codes again and this could bring it down to below £700.

There is nothing else at this price point which evens comes close.

Thanks guys.
So back to the G-sync question, as i'm using nvidia GPU, what's the crack? Does freesync work with nvidia or just AMD?
