In search for my dream monitor...

[rushi]

Ok. First of all, I KNOW everyone's preference of a monitor may vary due to different size preference but really I have a list of features I care about in a display in ranked order and I would simply love to learn the name of monitor(s) that meet these requirements . I don't mind substituting or removing the last 3 preferences but I'd prefer not to. So here it is.

 

1. 120Hz or higher

2.  HDR

3.  P3 color gamut

4.  4K

5.  2x USB-C w/ Thunderbolt 3 support, 2 USB 3.0, Dp 1.4, HDMI 2.0

6.  G-sync

7.  IPS or OLED

8.  VESA mount

9.  Thin Bezels

10. Modern clean look

 

I am looking for two suggestions. One suggestion that literally meets all these requirements and one that has a couple of trade offs but not drastically for the first 4 preferences.

 

Thanks in advance.

These are the ONLY two 120Hz+ 4k monitors right now. Both IPS, 144Hz, G-Sync.

 

 

Asus ROG Swift

You don't need to fully worry about g-sync anymore. Nvidia is releasing drivers on the 15th that make freesync and nvidia cards (10 series and up) compatible. So if you have a GTX card, it should work. Nvidia themselves "verified" twelve freesync monitors that work with GTX cards quite well.

Oh shit, really? That's pretty cool!

Yeah, there's going to be monitors that work better, like the verified displays from Nvidia. Something I found funny is that one of the verified displays is a budget 144hz AOC monitor.

But isnt Dp 1.4 on ROG Swift using the "same transmission modes as DP 1.3" due to which early adopters are facing "noticable degradation in quality" ? I was wondering how bad this would really be.

Holy shit that makes a hell of a difference for me. Thanks for the info. Do you have the link to the list by chance??

yeah, sorry I didn't respond, I have school 'n stuff.

 

This is the list right now, it might get bigger or stay the same, I doubt nvidia has tested every freesync monitor for sale.
