My brother is determined to get a 200Hz+ 1440P ultrawide monitor for gaming, and I want to help him understand what kind of PC he'll need for this setup. I've heard it can get quite expensive, and he might not always make the most of that high refresh rate. So, what's the build he should aim for?

For hitting 200+Hz, you're probably looking at a minimum of $1,500. I definitely wouldn’t go lower than a 5070 or 9070, especially for ultrawide gaming. What games does he usually play?
He's been into Apex and rivals lately, but he’s also mentioned wanting to play Minecraft with mods and Cyberpunk (definitely with ray tracing). He tends to go all out because of his ADHD!
