    It does, and the stock Ryzen cooler would still fit if you wanted to test the noise level before buying an AIO

    My answers:
    1. HDR on Non-OLED can still be good to excellent, depending on the TV. A VA panel with good lighting can deliver awesome contrast. The Samsung KS9800 is the reference HDR screen for some of the large content creators, for example.
    2. Yes, there are decent screens for $500. The Samsung KU6300 / KU6290 models offer good objective performance for the price. The 40" model is $399 at Best Buy (50" variant can be squeezed in for a little over your budget). Here's a link: UN40KU6300
    3. At this price point, I suggest looking for good fundamentals (static contrast, panel uniformity, color gamut, input lag, viewing angle, etc.) instead of looking at smart/playback features that your other devices can handle. 
    4. Displayport is not common on TVs. They normally rely on HDMI 2.0 for 4k60.

    Epson, Optoma, BenQ are the main ones normally found
     
    doubt you will find many projectors in local stores, where are you based?

    Eastern Europe. So amazon, unfortunately - isn't the good option here due to all the taxes and customs headache.
    Well, I found a store with the first optoma here, so I'll stick to it, probably.
    Thanks a lot for the suggestions!

    something like this would be a cheap option
    http://www.amazon.com/Optoma-HD141X-Theater-Projector-Enabled/dp/B00MK39P92/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1430476714&sr=8-1&keywords=1080p+cinema+projector 
     
    This model is even brighter
    http://www.amazon.com/Optoma-HD25-LV-1080p-Theater-Projector/dp/B00BQWX1P2/ref=sr_1_13?ie=UTF8&qid=1430476714&sr=8-13&keywords=1080p+cinema+projector
     
    and this would be the best option at 6000 lumens

    or the 27" version (although, a bit on the expensive side)

    Those are one of the best choices for general-purpose IPS monitors at the moment.  As long as you get IPS you're fine; the difference between different variations of IPS is pretty mild.  Also don't worry about the response time, it is not a measurement of latency or "delay" before the picture changes, that would be input lag (in which these monitors are remarkably low latency).  The "5ms response time or less for gaming" thing is a myth.
