Please help... :(

Acer XF270HUA looks to be the best (~£500). Is only free sync though.

Is the Asus PG279Q worth the extra cash for g-sync (~£600)? I haven't chosen my new gfx card yet, will be either 2070 super or 5700xt (though this is a monitor for the next 5 years+):

How about the ASUS MG279Q? All the above but with free-sync... however it needs a hack to get free-sync at 144hz!!:

Any recommendations?
 
I think this one looks better than all of them now:

The LG one isn't released in the US until early/mid August so I don't know when ocuk will get them plus it's only 'g-sync compatible' which means no g-sync variable overdrive which means ghosting apparently. I don't know how much cred you should give this but it was on reddit about the LG:
HDR is “supported” in so much as it accepts an HDR10 input source. This model doesn’t carry any of the VESA DisplayHDR certifications as the peak brightness of 350 cd/m2 is not high enough to even meet the lowly HDR400 level. with no note of any local dimming support included sadly. (from https://www.tftcentral.co.uk/blog/u...-with-144hz-nano-ips-panel-and-adaptive-sync/)

Also has no g sync, only compatiblity with g sync which means no variable overdrive. Also we dont know how good the input lag is gonna be and we dont know about the quality control (if the panel will have BLB issues etc). Also it was supposed to have rgb at the back but they removed that too. I wouldnt preorder any monitor and same goes for this one. I guess its not priced that bad but for people that wanted the ultimate monitor like this one promised to be it will be a hard pass
