HDR Gsync monitors?

Not really any available yet. The Acer Predator X27 and Asus ROG Swift PG27UQ are expected early 2018 and will offer 3850 x 2160 res, 144Hz refresh rate, Gsync and HDR specs with a 384 zone full array local dimming backlight. HDR is still very new in the monitor market. Keep in mind it's actually very complicated and limited to do pc HDR gaming still as well from a content and software/hardware point of view
 
And Acer has said its model will cost $2,000. Setting the UK price will probably involve changing that $ to a £.
 
Shame the freesync ones are available already from Samsung... we're in this odd position where we have far superior Nvidia cards than that can produce 4K much better than the AMD equivalent, but have better Freesync monitors than Gsync. It's arse backwards.
 
There aren't any 4K high refresh rate panels at all yet in the market. Freesync or Gsync. Which models were you referring to out of interest?
 
There are some 1440p 'HDR' monitors from Samsung, but they aren't proper HDR. Nowhere near enough brightness or a large enough array of diming zones.

As already mentioned, only will next year potentially bring true HDR G-Sync monitors, albeit for £2k. And who knows what QC issues there will be on such cutting edge monitors. I know Acer and Asus have certainly had their fair share of QC issues on their high end 1440 IPS G-Sync monitors.
