    I don’t get what a “best monitor” is supposed to be. They have six different categories themselves, and there’s also pricing. The “best” they listed sucks at HDR gaming and costs $550. In my opinion, if you’re going to have a “best” category it’s gotta be the Samsung 240Hz 4K monitor, but they mentioned issues with it

    So currently, there’s no “best” monitor. They all have trade-offs.

        Yes, but the 4090 is the “best” GPU with only minor trade-offs (DP 2.1 support?)

        Monitors don’t yet have an ultimate “highest res, refresh, brightness, contrast, color volume” champion. If they made a 240Hz 4K QD-OLED it would come close, but it wouldn’t be as bright as the best Mini-LEDs, have burn-in, weird pixel positioning (but at 4K you can just use monochromatic AA for text)

        The ultimate monitor might have to be Nano-LED, with self-emissive quantum dots. But we won’t see those until at least 2025, or maybe even later
