Overclockers sale team told me to come and ask my question here before purchase, well does it support 2k hdr g-sync 144hz all at the same time on the DisplayPort ?

or do you have to use hdmi for hdr and DisplayPort for g-sync ?

Yes, it supports 2560x1440p, g-sync and 144hz at the same time. I haven't tried with HDR, but it is pointless in this monitor. Check the rtings review.

For under £400 you can’t really expect hdr to blow your mind, my brother has a hdr 400 display and we think that looks good with hdr on, so as long as it looks similar to that I don’t mind

my question is still unanswered, hdr and g-sync, can they both be enabled over DisplayPort

yes they can. Having said that I have only used HDR on Destiny 2 and then just to test that it works. It's actually a 2nd monitor for me so not too fussed about the HDR performance.

@Brok your response has been more informative than the others so thank you for that

you should also see the hdr option in the windows 10 display menu found in settings to allow you to enable it when you watch hdr supporting content “Netflix”

Yes that option is there but it makes windows look like garbage and is very jarring alongside a non-HDR monitor, so it remains off!
