I have one as well and definitely can recommend it. The only thing is that if you are running macOS you really need to have SwitchResX for it to not look terrible.

I have it next to my studio display and it honestly does not even compare in terms of clarity. I’m sure it’ll run better on windows.

Could you clarify a bit by what you mean? The studio display has a higher resolution if I'm not mistaken (4500*3000), do you mean the display is more vivid or has a better color space (DCI P3 etc) coverage? Thanks!

I’m referring to the scaling of the display. The reason that I say that macOS looks better is because it uses integer scaling on the studio display. While even after setting a custom resolution, (the defaults macOS chose for the Mateview were either really small or really large for my taste) the Mateview still has a bit of a blur to it in small fonts it is most noticeable. Whereas the studio display shows well because it was made with integer scaling in mind

I was planning to use this on Linux (X11). Perhaps not a good idea given that I'd need scaling.
