I am running Debian testing, amd64 on my workstation.
I am planning to buy a new monitor, and specifically this

Now, what I wonder is if I can expect this monitor to be essentially plug and play on my system.
I am OK about tuning the performance at a later stage, but I would like at least not to start with a blank screen.
Please find below the output of lshw

So, I am using the GeForce GT 630 nvidia graphic card with the nouveau driver (I had some trouble with the nvidia driver after the latest debian release, on the other hand so far I have no trouble at all with the nouveau driver).
This monitor has been around ever since 2012, so I do not think it will be a big trouble for debian...just I do not want it to become a lot of work for me!
Any help/suggestion is appreciated.
