Calibration was aiming for 6500K with gamma set to 2.2. So I calibrated with a brightness of 40, contrast 50, black boost 5. Color 2.2, color temp set to User, R Gain 48, G Gain 47, B Gain 47.
It's said you can adjust brightness without affecting the temperature or colors much. Rtings calibrates at 100 nits actually (for those that don't know).
Uploaded the .icm file and the DisplayCal report post-calibration.
I can try to calibrate again under the Warm color temperature setting. I think it should be more universal, and at 6600K it's already close to my target of 6500K. Just keep in mind the whole procedure takes roughly an hour, so give me a day or two if anyone is interested.
Slickdeals site doesn't allow me to upload .icm files, so I uploaded to Google Drive.

This deal is super tempting but I will play it safe and hold out to the 30th just in case a similar Dell monitor goes on sale.
Edit: also found out that even using the Costco Visa Rewards CC will not qualify your purchase for the price rewind. It only applies to other stores' prices, not to Costco.

So spec-wise they would probably be comparable 1:1, the big win with this would be the convenience to just walk into any Costco at anytime and return for a full-refund in case any product issue or you just don't want the product, Costco would definitely be most accomodating.
Just looked at the specs on that Samsung vs. this monitor. This is a curved ultra-wide vs. normal ultra-wide (a bit more immersive and you won't need to turn your head so much to follow the entire monitor when sitting directly in front of the monitor). The Samsung refresh rate and response rate are 75Hz/4ms vs. 144Hz/1ms of this monitor. So the most important specs are a bit better on this monitor.

I have the 32" curved non ultrawide (also released at Costco some months ago and appears to be a Costco exclusive for Acer). Very minimal banding and no ghosting from what I've seen. I play Modern Warfare every night and no issues with ghosting/lag. AMD sync works brilliant.
