Troll more, you'll get somewhere.
Unfortunately for smartasses like the two of you, my ignore list has almost unlimited capacity.
Just play it safe, no need to over do it to point where Hilbert needs extra server just to calculate posts which you can see.
Those guys are kind of right as much as you are.

Speaking of latest technology - it looks like a newer revision of the ca. 3 year old (!) panel of the LG 27UD58-B
Lowest price for the latter is currently €279. (Plus there is a version of it with adjustable stand with pivot available - for a bit more).
Therefore i would not call it a great deal price/perf. wise. But the slim bezel on Phil admittably has a more modern and sexy look...

Unfortunately the only relatively affordable option i could find with 4K HDR & 120+ Hz is the ViewSonic VP2785-4K, prices starting around €1000.
(If someone is already spoiled with a size of 32" or more - like me - would have to pay 2300++ for similar specifications)
So the tech seems a bit too expensive for most gamer - and most professionals do not really care about gaming specs for a monitor...
Could you settle for WQHD/"2K"? The MSI Optix AG32CQ
(all these start from around €400).

Yeah, this 8bit+FRC gimmick is NOT true 10 bit and not worth your time or money. If you know you actually need 10 bit, DON'T buy this monitor for professional work.
