Need help finding a monitor in an ocean of products
Been looking at hundereds of monitors and thought maybe some of you have recommendations that will make my life a bit easier. Looking for a screen for mainly graphic design, photo editing, printing, light video editing and occasionally gaming during downtime. At least 1440p, 27 inches. IPS, 10 bit (or 8+frc), 100% adobe rgb or as close as possible, dci p3 at least 90. For gaming purposes would be cool to have a higher refresh rate, 120+ (never ever have had the chance to game on anything with more than 60 :( ). I CAN get the monitor calibrated professionally. The challenging part is the budget. Under 500 eur, as low as possible.
So far have found an asus proart screen for 500 euros, which is 27 inch 4k 10 bit ips screen with 99% adobe rgb and already calibrated from the get go, downside is the 60 hrz refresh rate.
On the lowest end is an aoc monitor for 230 euros, 27 inch 2k ips 8+frc screen with 90% adobe rgb and 95% dci p3 180hrz.
Does anyone know of or has the ultimate price to performance ratiod beast of a screen compared to what ive found so far?
