Yeah you can connect your PC to the TV via HDMI.
Though keep in mind that PC monitors focusing on gaming tend to have lower latency and higher refresh rates than TV's that might focus more on movies, where those things aren't as important.
That TV has a refresh rate of 120 hz, which is fine and the lowest I'd go for when the budget of your PC is $1500+.
That means your TV will only display up to 120 fps. If your game runs higher than that you won't be able to see any visual improvements above 120fps.
I can't find the latency of that TV, but lower is better, since higher latency will make the time between you pressing a button and you seeing it happening on screen feel like it takes longer. A.k.a. it may feel laggy.
I guess my main question is, is there a game where you know the resolution/framerate you would like to play at?
For example, I would want to play FF7 Rebirth at no lower than 60fps and 1080p, at High settings.
It's a demanding game, so such a setup can run a lot of other games at those settings but at 1440p.
For GPU I would recommend either the RX 9060 XT (16 GB version) or the RX 9070 XT (16 GB).
But the price difference between them is nearly double.
Around Black Friday you should be able to find some good deals on them,a nd all your other PC parts.
You'll want to look into how they differ for games you are interested in.
And it'll depend on what kind of resolution you want to play on.
But here's Cyberpunk at 1440p Ultra settings to give you an idea of the difference.
You can also turn on DLSS (FSR) and Frame Generation for increased performance. But they are all Off for this test.
Also, are you planning to build the PC yourself?
That would save you a significant amount of money. I built my first PC with no experience a few years ago by just following the instructions of a few Youtube tutorials, and it went just fine.
