Suggestions for a good colour accurate monitor I can also game on

DaiGurenMK42 · July 10, 2019

I will be in the market for a new monitor this summer but there are some things I am looking for. I want to get into 1440p, 120Hz+, GSync gaming but also have better colour accuracy than I currently do. Would be amazing if there was something with 93% DCI P3 and sub 2 delta e out of the box. Wondering if all of this can be had for sub 1500 CDN and if there are some other things I should be looking into as well.

Maybe this pending LG monitor will be the ticket:

There will also be a larger 38GL950G, but likely out of your price range and not available until later.

These two would also be a consideration:

Thanks! I'll take a look!

Any Ultrawides with same specs?

Here is a handful of widescreen 1440 IPS monitors, but I haven't read anything about them. It's a place to start though.

I really like the bigger 38 one. Can't wait for reviews. Hopefully colour accuracy is great and price is manageable.

Yes, but it's 4K and I don't know if there is a card that can drive it (at high settings) at 144 Hz (or even 120 Hz). It looks great though. I think it is supposed to retail for $2000 US.

In the meantime, you need to work on your meme so that you can win the smaller one. See the bottom of the page here:

Here is a recent article, but it may be the same monitors:
