the thing is that the 32gp850-b is at 483 cad on amazon...... and they are pretty much the same the only difference that i see is that you can overclock the frame rate to 180Hz (165Hz native) compared to the 32gp83b-b's locked 165Hz, there is no way to compare them the way rtings do it hard to know wich is better.... i guess the best guess would be to by the model that is the most recent but can't find that info anywhere or wait till the 21gq850-b get's lower???? why is choosing a monitor so hard???

Just get the one without overclock, overclocking usually reduces color bit rate and image quality.

got a new system building bits by bits, already have the 3070ti parts on the  way if deals are happening will be 32 gig of ddr4 ram, 2tb nvme, 13600k cpu, 850 volt psu, z760 mobo want to know if that monitor would be any good for that setup for gaming for the price advertised in CAD. thanks.

for the spec you have, its good 3070ti should be able to push 1440p gaming just fine

for the price, right now its on sale and seems pretty good. but before buying it maybe do some research if its good or not compared to other in same price, if you dont mind that kind of thing, then i would say go ahead.
