What do you think about this Configuration, 1 more slot 8GB and 256SSD will be added in the future.

Also I'd like to have a suggestion for a monitor, I was looking for UltraWide LG, but I want to hear more opinions.

Is 2560x1080 29inch UltraWide the same as 27inch 2560x1440p normal?

Also I am more into single player games and maybe LoL, gonna buy Rainbow Six Siege, but I am not competitive. I'd prefer good graphics over competitive playing.

I would make sure you are getting 2 sticks of RAM and not a single 1x8gb stick. Ryzen scales well with RAM and you have a dual channel motherboard. So only running one stick will run your mobo in single channel and there will be performance loss. Not sure when you are planning on making the purchase, but AMD is about to release their Ryzen refresh chips in about a month. So that is something to consider.

If you are just planning on gaming, then Intel is a better choice. But for workstation tasks, AMD has the lead. The 1600 is a good chip, but the 8400 is better.

As for the ultrawide, a lot depends on refresh rate. But the 2560x1080 has 2.7 million pixels where the 2560x1440 has 3.6 million. So you will get higher fps on the...

But your fps will only go as high as the refresh rate. For me, going with a 1070, I would look at a good 1440p. But I also have an ultrawide and love it. But 1440p is just the sweet spot right now in my opinion.
