>5070 @ 4K will work if he's willing to play the newer, demanding games with DLSS Performance/Balance mode enabled (+Frame Generation if running above 70 FPS with upscaling).

Hmm, I'll show him those you linked but maybe I'll just tell him to try for a 2k monitor instead then since that's more in his range performance wise and price wise.
This was linked in the op on the monitor site, is this still a solid 2k monitor? Not familiar with AOC products..
