LG Ultrafine 5K. Approx. 1400,-, EUR
But with WIN it does "only" show 4K, as far as I remember from Linus´ Tech talk.
OSX spits out the full 5K.
It works in 5k, with full brightness control & color gamut options from Windows under
very specific scenario:
- Latest RTX Cards from nVidia, which support DSC (Bandwidth compression) in DisplayPort. Then you can a) either use USB-C 3.1gen2 (Thunderbolt cable will not work), and that USB-C is the VirtualLink originally meant for VR headsets. Or use DisplayPort 1.4 cable directly.
Then it's best to force-install (using command line for example) Bootcamp drivers. When Linus did his video (and others), this workflow didn't exist yet.
This is fantastic monitor, the only mainstream monitor with 500 Nits and full wide-gamut coverage. But it's only 27", so small for you (small for me too).
Using this same way btw, it's possible to use Apple XDR Display Pro in full 6k/60Hz/10bit on Windows 10. Not many people know of this hack :- ). 100perc. functional.
Have you considered 2 monitors option? I have 2 of those and im super satisfied

I would highly suggest against. Tis is TN panel, it has generally poor contrast, color gamut coverage, viewing angles. Visually the worst technology of all available (TN, VA(AMVA), PLS, IPS(AHVA), OLED), but with fast refresh rates, so cheaper gaming monitors still use it (higher end gaming monitors either use IPS or VA, IPS being fastest, VA having best contrast).
For color-critical work like CGI, only IPS panels (or OLED) should be used. VA has much better color contrast, but poor viewing angles and worse color gamut that can change across brightness levels.
thank you for your responses.
What's the difference between the PD series and the SW series?
SW series is higher-end model with hardware calibration and true 10bit (instead of 8bit+FRC) (3D LUT stored in OSD, works on top of software profiles).
PD Series is
more than good enough for color-critical work that isn't in professional grading/print sphere.
PD3220U is probably the best "prosumer" (Pro/Consumer) 1k Euro monitor, before it jumps to 2k+ Euro like SW series, 3-4k like NEC/Eizo (or 6k like Apple XDR).
I am personally using PD3200U, which is predecessor to 3220U. From my experience (I have 5 of them), they have great factory calibration (but only sRGB and P3 are calibrated, but those are the ones you will use in CGI).
