[SOLVED] 3440x1440 or 2560x1440 for gaming

I've already narrowed down my choices for 2560x1440 to the ASUS TUF VG27AQ for 463.00. Interested in your opinions on better. https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-Gaming-VG27AQ-G-SYNC-Monitor/dp/B07WQ4FXY9?th=1
But now I'm looking at ultrawides. Are they worth the drop in quality and increase in price?
I'll be powering them with a RTX 2080 super founders edition. The benchmarks between the resolutions is here.

NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER At 1080p, 1440p & Ultrawide

The third card in NVIDIA's new SUPER lineup has landed, becoming the new top-end offering of the bunch (but still sitting far enough behind the 2080 Ti). We're taking a look at NVIDIA's newest $699 graphics card offering across a range of games at three resolutions: 1080p, 1440p, and ultrawide.

and

Now obviously the best bang for my buck would be the ASUS. But if price wasn't a factor, what would you go with?

I prefer the extra field of view going with an ultrawide vs standard widescreen.

2560x1440 is about 16:9 aspect ratio
3440x1440 is about 21:9 aspect ratio.

Given the choice, and given that you have a 2080 Super, I would go with 3440x1440.

Hmm I’ve got a 2080 Super and run 2560x1440 144Hz and it not exactly overpowered. I’m actually waiting to see if the reports of the 3080 being a good step up over the 2080Ti come true as I would likely upgrade. Take COD MW for example I’m running medium settings with Ray Tracing off to average 120fps.

The funny thing is I'm running a Korean Shimian that maxes at 60hz. I've been happy gaming with it for 8 years now. So anything above that is an improvement. So I think I'll like the bigger screen more than I'll like the better refresh rates and all the other bells and whistles. But I don't know, all I have to compare in person is the ones at bestbuy but they never have any content that really shows off the monitors.

I'm generally of that mindset as well, I prefer the bigger screen (and the ultra-wide) and am fine with 60-75 fps.
