Monitor shopping <300 quid

RedXIV

Hi all,

I was gifted a voucher on amazon to get myself a new Monitor for my recent build. At the moment I'm running with a GTX 1070 off a very odd combination of a 22" 16:10 ratio screen ( Specs here) and an old HD ready Samsung TV.

I was planning pretty much to get 2 decent monitors at some stage but I want to get something sooner than later as new baby is on the way and want to get it bought before voucher is poached for baby things

I was looking at the following to replace both screens with one ultrawide.
https://www.amazon.co.uk/LG-29UM68-Ultrawide-Monitor-2560x1080/dp/B01BFH194W

I'm not a very fast paced gamer in general, I may jump onto a FPS once in a while, but I'm not competitive really, I'm more into slower paced games, movies and building games in Unity and the like.

Any advice or suggestions based on this? Just want to make sure I'm not buying a lemon

Cheers,
Red
