Dell to out new S2721DGF Monitor, HDR400 2560x1440 at 144 Hz
Dell adds a gaming monitor, a 27-inch WQHD gaming liquid crystal display called with that snazzy name: "S2721DGF". It carries a rather poor VESA Display HDR 400 label though, but is a proper 144 Hz 2560x1440 panel.
The 27-inch WQHD gaming LCD that supports the high dynamic range of VESA Display HDR 400. Display sync technology through AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and NVIDIA G-Sync.
The LCD panel is an IPS system and supports a wide colour gamut with a DCI-P3 coverage rate of 98% and a color of 1.07 billion colors. It also has a timer function, an FPS counter, and unique functions such as a "shadow stabilizer" that adjusts the contrast and gamma values to improve visibility in dark areas. The main specifications are a contrast ratio of 1,000:1, a response speed of 1ms, a refresh rate of 165Hz, and a viewing angle of 178° horizontal/vertical. The interface is HDMI x2, DisplayPort x1, audio out x1, USB3.0 down x4, USB3.0 up x1. The stand supports 90° swivel, 180° pivot, -5 to 21° tilt, and 130 mm height adjustment. The main body size is 611.6 mm wide, 200.3 mm deep, and 393.9 mm high.
The monitor will be priced at 399 USD.

I've got a similar spec Acer monitor, 27" / 1440 @ 144Hz / IPS / G-sync but no HDR... is it worth "upgrading" to get the HDR? I see article says it's a "poor HDR label". From what I've seen, it largely depends on how the game utilises HDR? I suppose the other question is are there a decent amount of games that support HDR? Are most newer games providing some kind of HDR support? Would that be a fair assumption?
maybe actually go bother to do a few minutes research on HDR? in the meantime, NO you do not want to buy a monitor for HDR that is only certified for HDR400.

Every ancient LCD "standard-dynamic range" monitor could do about 300 nits brightness, this only does 100nits more. I'll eat my hat if average Joe could even see the difference. Have you seen how dull looking even 700nit OLED TVs are? And that is only on a 10 or 20% windows too... not full screen. HDR400 is marketing bollox only - if they could get away with sticking HDR on all their old LCD monitors they would... and this was basically given to them by HDR standards to allow them to do that..
