Best monitor for X Plane/Ryzen 7 3700X/8GB RX 5700XT

[ph2020]

Hi all!

I need a monitor for my new Ryzen 7 3700X/RX 5700XT PC and I have no idea which one to buy. I want to use it predominantly for X Plane 11, so I guess widescreen is preferred?

What's the best monitor £400 can buy? Ideally 1440p (though not possible if widescreen?), 1ms, 144Hz, etc.

I had originally ordered the 34" LG 34UC79G-B but that's 1080p which is apparently a 33% sacrifice of FPS vs 1440p... now I'm thinking Dell S2719DGF is a better option?

Any help would be much appreciated. Budget can be stretched a bit if it's worth it. I think I just want the best X Plane 11 experience since I'm training to be a pilot.

If your primary concern is flight simulation then I'd recommend a large screen 4K TV over a monitor.

144hz, 1ms etc etc bring ZERO benefit to Xplane.

A large 4K TV with a VA panel for better blacks is what you want.

Also, have you already purchased your graphics card? Nvidia cards run Xplane better.
