Not sure why, ultra wide's are awesome. Well needless to say you can't go wrong with either but personally I prefer LG monitors as I've always had zero issues with them, also if you upgrade your GPU I would consider going AMD when prices drop as then you'll be able to utilize Freesync.

Either of those is fine but I'd prefer the LG.

Have you considered a ultra wide? Having the 21:9 ratio with a 75hz refresh rate would give you a bit of a advantage as it allows you to see more on the sides and Fortnite supports that ratio, plus it's cheaper.
