Best 32 inch 4K 60hz Gsync Monitor for under $1000?

[Icaraeus]

I'm looking for a good 32 inch IPS 4K Gsync monitor that will last me 5-6 years. What's the best one that costs under $1000 USD?

The only 32 inch gsync 4k monitor i could find at around a 1000$

Oh wow, the 32 inch variant costs $450 more than the 27 inch.

Overclockable above 144hz even  I didn't know 4k panels were already capable of getting high refresh rates ??

Wait what?? Overclock a monitor?

 

4K 144hz native gsync HDR monitors have been available since April.... for the low, low price of 2500+ euro / US$3000+

 

In case you were wondering

Well this monitor that has just been linked to you advertises with a overclock to 180hz on that panel @4k so apparently (even though not native) it is available at 1100eu

Impossible. No 4K display in existence has a refresh rate of 180hz. The page can claim whatever it wants, it's clearly lying.

Honestly I do think the same, but who knows? I'm sure there must be a honest review somewhere! Maybe worth checking out

I saw where you read 180hz and that was from some guy who owned a 1440p version of the monitor that natively has 144hz refresh rate which he was able to get running at 180hz supposedly. The only 4K 144hz displays in existence cost $3000+ USD as I stated before

Aah that does explain it! my bad! and in the end it would be useless anyway.. what GPU does 180fps on 4k

Uh... many video cards

 

..... with early 2010 era games and older

[Ansuex]

Touché.. though you must be a real enthousiast of those old games to spend over 4k on hardware for them just to get 4k@180fps  

I think you would be better off with that 4k@60hz with Gsync. overkill enough if you ask me! Im still gaming on 1080p60.. though I must admit buying a 21:9 monitor gets really tempting as time passes.

or 2014+ games at the very lowest of settings.

Yep definitely going with 4K 60hz for now. I'll go for 4K 144hz or better in 5-6 years. By then the monitors would be under $1000. My current desktop uses Intel 3rd gen i5 3570 and Radeon HD 7870 (2012-era video card) with 2.7 TFLOPs compute so I'm doing a full upgrade this yr (to Ryzen 7 2700X, 32GB DDR4-3200/3466mhz, GTX 1080Ti / GTX 1180)

In fact I just noticed that the 27 inch variant costs $650 so I could get 2 4K60hz 27 inch Acer monitors for only $1300 so I might do that
