If the maximum budget is more than £300, what exactly is your maximum budget?
What CPU+GPU do you have?
What editing do you do with your system?
What kind of games will you be playing?
What exactly do you mean by "very long"? - an ultrawide monitor? super ultrawide?

£300 more but not to an extreme amount. I think more than £300 is enough.
AMD 3700x CPU
MSi B450 GPU
Editing videos/rendering videos in Vegas Pro 16 & others
I will be playing CoD, Fortnite, Battlefield, GTA5, & others
My English wasn't very helpful on that day. Haha I want a wide-screen/ultrawide/super+

and what GPU are you using? "MSI B450" is motherboard?
Need to know what resolution/refresh rate you're system is capable of running at.

So, which one? A regular 16:9 widescreen or an ultrawide? regular 1080p, 1440p, 4k monitors are 16:9.
Ultrawide's are 21:9 aspect ratio, so resolutions like 2560x1080 and 3440x1440.
Super ultrawide's are 32:9, so 2 x 16:9 monitors in a single unit basically- real expensive and big, comes resolutions like 3840x1080 and 5120x1440.

I don't know what my refresh rate will be, the resolution will be as my pc is not setup. Not sure if you knew but that's why I've made this topic so people can link me the best monitor for my setup.

1080p I think it's the best, not sure if that will be the best setup for my setup?

So I'm guessing you're doing things like youtube videos and photoshop for image editing and creation? In such case I'd recommend looking into IPS panels if you care for color accuracy and heavily suggest looking into 1440p at a minimum if for nothing more than the extra screen space.
