If I'm using it for all purpose which other model u may recommend bro what's your budget? 27GL850 is 1899. it's currently the best overall monitor. Asus TUF VG27AQ is RM200 cheaper. if you're with tight budget, 1440p 144Hz+ IPS difficult to find d...but can find VA panels, like AOC CQ27G2 that costs about 1300.

FI27Q-P is the same as FI27Q but with DP1.4, but costs RM600-700 more. 27GL850 already comes with DP1.4 and can immediately support 10-bit in 144Hz. this monitor is the way to go at RM2k price point. (SPOILERS: this is vary units between units, in terms of color accuracy, peak brightness, color temp and more. only open this spoiler section if you're doing professional works such as photo editing, video editing or printing using this monitor, or you are setting up multi-monitor and then found out each display has different color temps and colors themselves, or you're just curious, else don't care) » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Additionally I've also done some testings and calibration on picture quality for 27GL850 as well (no idea how to test response time), DataColor software will report 100% sRGB and 97% DCI-P3 which is spectacularly close to the advertised 98%; while DisplayCal will report 95-96%, much closer to Hardware Unboxed's result. QUOTE(Hardware Unboxed) For overall DCI-P3 coverage I measured 95% which is just shy of LG’s claimed 98%, but well around the mark of other wide gamut IPS panels.

Hardware Unboxed reported 7200K++ when setting to 6500K, and I tested mine and also reported around that figure: this means that, LG's 6500K mode is cooler than itself therefore will have a bit blue-ish tint. when uncalibrated, peak brightness is 375cd/m^2, contrast ratio is 835:1 as shown above, higher than both Hardware Unboxed and RTING's units. setting brightness to 200cd/m^2 = 45% brightness, OSD color temp = custom and R/G/B = 50/49/48 could bring you close to 6500K, but it varies between units. result: uncalibrated ΔE (was measured against 7100K automatically therefore whitepoint ΔE is low which is not accurate since we want to target 6500K): calibrated ΔE: This post has been edited by lolzcalvin: Apr 3 2020, 10:18 PM

As I cant wait for it due to MCO.. i gotten myself Acer XB273 UGS. no point waiting, even 2080ti can't hit more than 120fps on 4K from most games. when rtx 3000 series release, follow-up games will be more demanding as well since consoles are pushing the limits at the same time. 1440p on 27 inch monitor is the golden ratio, much like 4K on 32 inch monitor. 4K on 27 inch means displaying letters for ants, without scaling.
