it wont be any good for gaming. The FALD array will likely be to slow, and the pixel response time also wont be tuned for gaming either. So while it may look very good for static images for professional work, which is obviously what its aimed for, it wont be anything special for any1 else.

 

i would rather see rtings and/or Tftcentral do a full review of it.

 

LTT as fun as they are to watch, are no monitor reviewers. They dont have the experience or setup to fully test monitors. Dont get me wrong they have got better in their recent  monitor vids, but they still very much include a lot of subjective opinion rather than tested data in some important aspects, such a pixel response time.

In the Netherlands it's around €3100 and 3299. And on German Amazon it's €2975.

If there was a 24" version with all exact specs, I would have gotten one. 32" is simply too big. But I'm waiting for Eizo Foris Nova. I have witnessed oled monitor and truely loved it but had to return it. Hopefully Eizo's will be much better.

As a working professional that deals with colour I'm currently using a Dell UP2414Q from 2014. Its sRGB performance is great, it has an 8ms GTG which isn't so great, yet on Xbox I remain very competitive in game. 

 

This new ASUS monitor actually has a really responsive FALD (if you actually read the review) and have a response time of 5ms GTG. If you look at they ProArt website you will see that there is another monitor the PA32UCG which is 120Hz and both monitors are targeting game devs too. I would be incredibly surprised if it 'wont be tuned for gaming' in any way given their current marketing. Unless of course you definition of 'tuned for gaming' is <3ms.
