Im looking for a new monitor, but cant find to find any that meet all my wanted specs.
Either this ir that is totally missing :( Maybe you guys can help me out!

The monitor should have 120hz min. HDR(Doesnt really matter what HDR spec.) WQHD and <=4ms reaction time.
All i found was some BenQ  monitor which looked really shitty.

The XG32VQR from asus looks really good, in my local stores its not in stock.

Resolution: 2560x1440, thought WQHD was specific enough :)
Size: Not too big so no ultrawide, 27" max 32" should be enough
Price: Ill judge if its worth it to buy it no matter the price not over 800€ tho
Country: Germany

Response time spec is ....somewhat pointless when ur referring to the figure advertised by manufacturers. They are VERY misleading and never accurate to real world test results.

 

Above link should show a filter for monitors (that have been tested and reviewed by rtings**) that have the features u want whilst displaying details such as:

Size, refresh rate,Panel type, VRR type, response times both 80% and 100%, black uniformity, and HDR brightness.

 

**They have 88 monitors reviewed total.

No experience with it myself.

 

Another good site is https://www.tftcentral.co.uk/

however they dont have a good filter ..or a working one in fact. So u either have to know what monitor model review u want to look at, or look through them individually. Their tests and reivews however are good. Just note however that they use a different testing method than rtings.com so u cant compare across the sites unfortunately unless u have a deep understanding of the difference, even then its a 'guestimate'.

I bought the samsung C27HG70 now, I hope the Stand isn't too fiddly. THe rating was good and Also supports WCG which is an extra bonus.

 

Thanks @SolarNova for the help!

Just replaced the stand on mine yesterday.

Love the monitor, hate the stand.
