Question Monitor purchase help (R45w-30 vs XR343CK P vs 45GR65DC-B) ?

[Banks12345]

Hi all, I've been on this mini journey on purchasing a new monitor. For background my main uses of my PC are games (Grand Strategy and RPGs are my favs) and programming and I'll be upgrading from a vg27aq, I also have an Nvidia card. I've decided against OLED as I hate the idea of burn-in after a short period of time, I like things I buy to last. I have decided on Ultrawides as I believe the horizontal space would be a boon in both the games I play and in coding. I have narrowed my choices down to the R45w-30, XR343CKP, and the 45GR65DC-B.

Lenovo Legion R45w-30:

Pros:

170hz

5120 x 1440 while also 45in (better PPI than 49in versions)

KVM for possible second computer/server (less important since putty exists)

HDMI 2.1

3 USB 3.2

Cons:

Most expensive of lineup ($759USD after student discount)

Not many reviews and mostly unseen online

8 bit color (Haven't experience 10 bit though, not sure if it's a issue honestly, for the price I think it should be 10 bit)

VA panel

Acer Nitro XR343CKP:

Pros:

180hz

cheapest ($500 no discounts)

2 USB 3.1

KVM

IPS

Most reviews of screens I'm comparing

Cons:

Smallest of the 3

Unsure of picture quality compared to the others, could be the worst

Unsure of Gsync compatibility, some reviews say yes, some say no

8 bit color (Haven't experience 10 bit though, not sure if it's a issue honestly, for the price I think it should be 10 bit)

LG UltraGear 45GR65DC-B:

Pros:

200hz

5120 x 1440 while also 45in (better PPI than 49in versions)

2 USB 3.0

HDMI 2.1

$641 after savings and tax
