    You have to know what you're getting for your $: it's a 1080p monitor. If you want 4K or 1440, then that's your deciding factor and you already know that you want that increased resolution, and you'll look elsewhere. If you're looking for 1080p with bells and whistles, this is THE ONE. I have a upper mid-range (or lower high-end, if you prefer) self built gaming rig, and the last thing I ended up buying for it was this monitor. I spent a looooot of time working through articles and reviews, bleeding edge discussions, and wikipedia and google searches trying to whittle down my preferred monitor, and only saw this monitor in passing . . . EXCEPT . . . I went to "Blur-Busters" with my current monitor because I wanted to get a feel for what I wanted when I saw the new "Blur-Busters Approved" blurb. I went to the list to see what was there because this is a new thing they're trying to get in the industry, and this was the only monitor on the list (so far). So I looked a little harder at it, and I got excited, a little more research, and I made the plunge. I was skeptical about having only DP1.2 considering it's cranking out a 240Hz refresh with less than 1ms GTG, but reviews were great (except people were talking about about no HDR -- more on that later). Worth every penny!1) The screen is amazingly fresh and stable2) G-Sync compatibility works automatically with current drivers (don't forget to change your resolution to PC - 1080p - 240Hz . . . Win10 defaults to HD - 1080p - 60Hz -- UNLESS you want HDR, read on)3) Color and brightness are very well matched at default calibration without any fiddling with the OSD4) With the tuning the "Blur-Buster" guys did with Viewsonic on the refresh strobing, it's liquid smooth when the 2080 is pumping out serious frames at any refresh. Now, I wanted it all, and posted pics as proof: HDR10 with G-Sync at a 120Hz refresh. DP1.2 CAN run HDR10, even though compliance came out in DP1.4. Stated by VESA guidelines, it's basically all about bandwidth. DP1.2 will run HDR10 if . . . AND ONLY IF . . . you allow enough room on the signal for the 25% extra data that 10bpp has over 8bpp. There are two ways to do this (easily): reduce resolution, or reduce refresh rate. HDR10 will run with a DP1.2 or higher rated cable, if you lower your refresh to 120Hz to allow it room on the bus, because let's face it . . . we're not going to lower our resolution, right?! Tested on Shadow of the Tomb Raider, G-Sync at 120Hz with HDR10 is buttery smooth and amazing! Everything I've tested has worked, and been stutter, tear, and blur free, with amazing color and light and dark contrast. Get this monitor, it's a beast!
