G'day guys, I have done various google searches but I can't find anything so I thought I would ask here.
I am looking for the following -

27",
2560x1440,
Gsync,
HDR (at least HDR400, pref HDR600/1000),
IPS,
144hz,
1ms (ish) response

Is there anything out there or in the works?

I see lots of UW monitors with variants of my wish list but I don't have the desk space.
I did look at the new LG's but after looking at the reviews I will steer clear.

Many thanks

Just been looking at this, what do you think? I have a 2080ti so i can run this.

Scrap that, they’re being refreshed soon and I do really want 1440p.

Why HDR 400 as a minimum?

Because its the minimum spec. Unlike the LG 27GL850 which is "HDR ready" i.e. it can receive and HDR signal.

Native GSync with the hardware module it will Gsync compatibility/ GSync support be sufficient?

LG 27GL850 is coming soon and meets some of those requirements. You won’t find any with meaningful HDR screens though which are 27”, 1440p and IPS. I think that’s probably the spec you’re going to have to give up in

If HDR is important then the Acer X27 and Asus PG27UQ are very high end options which meet most of your specs but are 4K resolution instead

As mentioned I did look at the new LG's but after watching and reading reviews I will steer clear.
Like you say I think when the refreshed X27 comes out I will have a look at that.

It just seems odd that they can put all that spec in to an UW but not a regular 27"
