Nothing comes up on that link mate, most monitors come with HDMI and displayport connectors these days, unusual if a brand new one doesnt have a display port as well as HDMI, use 1 hdmi and one displayport is fine.
This should work now https://www.cyberpowersystem.co.uk/store/item/mn_mp251 |

A standard 4060 may struggle playing MS flight sim at anything above average settings on a dual monitor set up tho mate.

Good stuff I am sure you will be happy with it, be worth upgrading the CPU as AMD are bringing out a much much better CPU for the AM4 in a couple of months that will make that as fast as many much newer processors, and work with your existing motherboard and memory (possibly needing a bios update). https://www.pcgamesn.com/amd/ryzen-5000xt-reveal |

Snes9x is the best I've used for snes/nes. If you want a 'catch all' for most consoles then retro arch is pretty solid and worth looking into. Can be a little fiddly if you're not into fiddling, but once sorted out it's great.

Retroarch or Launchbox if you want to play inside Windows, if you need any roms or bios I can put you in the right direction.
I personally use Batocera but have it as a seperate boot rather than inside Windows. Dead easy to set up to boot from USB/external HDD SSD.
All of them have the right emulators built in all you do is add Roms and in some cases Bioses to them.
