Good to know, hope to see it at CES, I've still never seen HDR content in person
Finally. That means insane Korean Frankenstein monitors in 2018.
I said it before but im still waiting on oled hdr 4k ultrawide 144hz 2ms g/freesync.
Soon, soon, SOON!
Rtings say they are great for pc monitor use. I don't know what you're talking about.Are these ever going to be suitable for PC usage considering there's image retention? Rtings says don't use them for pc monitors.
IPS is gross, what's the point?

It also works with AMD cards
TAIPEI, TAIWAN, December 6, 2016 – BenQ, internationally renowned provider of digital lifestyle devices, today announced the SW320 photographer monitor, a 31.5-inch 4K display with class-leading color performance and High Dynamic Range (HDR) capability. Spanning a wide color gamut covering 99% of Adobe RGB and 100% of sRGB, Rec. 709, and the digital cinema industry’s DCI-P3 color space, SW320’s true 10-bit IPS panel and advanced 14-bit lookup table (LUT) deliver spectacular color quality with precise ≤2 Delta E values.
A first non-4K HDR display from Dell is announced on CES: Dell launches Ultrathin HDR 27-inch monitor (and it is Sexy!)
Specs are rather low though so it remains to be seen how good it will be at HDR specifically.
I hope they won't all be IPS. What's the point of "HDR" if you are limited to 2000:1 or less static contrast.
Samsung claimed to have addressed this in their current QLED VA monitor line (CFG70).VA panels have much worse pixel response times. Which is an issue for PC use. Mouse movements, scrolling, text etc., and of course fast camera movements in video games.
It's no wonder most monitors are TN or IPS based.
The ASUS ProArt PA32U uses a 4K UHD panel with HDR capabilities, a quantum dot film and a special backlight featuring 384 LED zones that enable 1000-nit brightness and support for local dimming. The manufacturer notes that its new panel with quantum dots, backlighting and calibration enable the monitor to cover 99.5% of the Adobe RGB, 85% of the Rec. 2020, 100% of the sRGB and 95% of the DCI-P3 color spaces, which makes the display particularly appealing to artists and photographers (Adobe RGB) as well as to video editors and animation designers who do post-production work for digital cinema or TV (DCI-P3 and BT.2020). The number of features, as well as the use of quantum dot technology, represents an interesting combination for a professional display. Moreover, it looks like the ASUS ProArt PA32U will be one of the first mass-market monitors supporting the Rec. 2020 color gamut at all and covering 85% of it.
The ASUS ProArt PA32U will be available in Q3 2017 for $1799 $1999.
Will we see HDR on monitors below 4k? Until 4k is feasible at ~90 fps in most titles and there are actually monitors (and an HDMI-standard) that support refresh rates above 60 at 4k I'm not really interested in the resolution bump, but HDR would be neat. 1440p/144hz with HDR would be ideal...
looks like the LG 32UD99-W will be available by the end of may for 999.99.
I think I'm gonna pre-order on my next paycheck.
I'm going to be all over that PG27UQ once they actually announce a date and price... hoping it's slightly below $1000.
I have to upgrade my TV and monitor setup... but I'm really only playing games on a monitor right now, so I'll do that first and wait for OLED prices to go down a bit on TV.
luls below 1000.
That's why I said hoping...
If some of these are coming in at $900-$1200, it's not out of the realm of possibility to get a $999.

If you're referring to the ASUS 4K HDR GSync Quantum Dot monitor, the MSRP is $2000.
$2000! I haven't seen the MSRP anywhere!
Ok, so explain to me how movies filmed on celluloid can be HDR. Isn't HDR something where the data needs to be generated (game engine or 3D animation) or recorded (on something like a super expensive Red digital camera?).
I mean there are HDR films like San Andreas that was filmed using tons of practical effects on 35mm. What gives? Is it faked like 3D is faked with rotoscoping and stuff? Does 35mm actually capture a higher range of color than is displayed when transferred to standard blueray?
CRT.
let's go boyz.
You joke, but I want this :*(
Lemme get a 4k OLED with HDR and G Sync @ 120hz lol
ASUS ROG at a Berlin based even is introducing three monitors. The Republic of gamers displays will move towards Quantum Dot technology that you already know from Samsung, two new gaming monitors will be HDR10 compatible.
ASUS is the introduce three models, a 1920x1080 based ROG STRIX XG27VQ. This model will get a 144Hz display and a Curved design. A step upwards is the 2K model at 165 Hz tagged ROG SWIFT PG27VQ. This again will be a curved screen however this model is not HDR ready but has quantum dot technology display with GSYNC adapter.
Last but not finally is an Ultra HD screen, the ROG SWIFT PG27UQ. This GSYNC enabled screen once again uses a Quantum Dot panel and is a HDR ready screen rated at 144 Hz, PG27UQ offer 1,000cd/m² peak brightness and thus that 10-bit color depth. This 27-inch IPS display is the next generation in gaming monitor technology to deliver super-fine detail, buttery-smooth gameplay and life-like colors. The screens will have configurable AURA RGB LED functionality. PG27UQ only has one DP port for native 4K. Specifics and specification I will add to this news-item later.
