A product that has been discussed about a lot has got to be the Asus RoG Swift PG27UQ. This NVIDIA GSYNC enabled monitor offers 4K and 144 Hz HDR gaming. We tested the gaming monitor as quickly as we could to see if this screen was worth the very long wait.

Thanks for the review. I'm waiting for MiniLED backlit monitors to be a real thing before I upgrade. A really nice IPS / AVHA with a MiniLED backlight would be nice.

I'll bet in a couple years we'll see better monitors than this with full spec performance (HDMI 2.1) at less than a $1000.

Prices pretty gangsta, im happy with my 1440p monitor just fine. I think 1440p is a sweet spot for gaming anno 2018.

So, the most technologically advanced display that exists, and they put that ugly thick bezel on it.
WHY ? It's a direct-lit LED, with no need to house LED's on the side of the panel, requiring a bezel.

Also the price is insane, it's more expensive than 55"-65" OLED UHD HDR TV's ... (yes, missing 144Hz, but still ... damn !)

When you are first to the party of course your gonna charge an arm and a leg but having to sell a kidney also is one organ too far.

If it was a 30/32" then maybe 1500 squid would be reasonable but 2k for 27" even with all that good stats stuff. nah thanks.
