A few days ago here at Guru3D we reported that the Ultra HD 144Hz HDR compatible G-Sync monitor from ACER started listing at NewEgg. This morning I did some checks on the ASUS PG27UQ with similar specs, and it is listing at some EU etailers for preorder with availability in June, the listed price is € 2.550,-

ASUS PG27UQ offers a 27" Ultra HD panel with GSYNC HDR screen 144Hz. it has 384 local dimming zones and will offer a peak brightness of 1000 Nits and supports a dci-p3 color space.

In a variety of EU webshops the screen now is listed for pre-order, the highest price listed is a staggering €2919, which is totally rather jawbreaking if the price in the USA for the counterpart is 1999 USD. Here in the Netherlands, several Dutch etailers are listing the product at ranges from € 2.560,- running upwards to €2.799,-

With multiple sources pointing towards the price ranges, I guess the price for the new panels is going to be in that 2500 Euro bracket once they become available.

i woudl have paid 1200, 1300 eur for a really great monitor.

With 1300 eur you can get a good 55+ 4k hdr tv.
Ok without gsync and without 144hz, but 2550 is really too much.

Far too expensive for a 27" panel regardless of spec, 32" would have made way more sense at 4K but still that price is ridiculous. I am hoping after a few years FALD panels become more common and the price drops. If this 27" monitor costs this much I wonder how much they will be charging for those 65" Gsync panels....lol.

Need to get on a boat, throw out my passport somewhere in a middle of Baltic sea, row all the way to Germany and apply for asylum to afford one of those.
