The best monitor of 2020 so far

Probably the best monitor money can buy but the one I received was broken. LG wraps this in thin foam and it's a $1,700 monitor. Some things to watch out for: if you want to use 10 bits you should stick with 120Hz, if you switch to 244Hz you'll only get a maximum of 8 bits. Also, be careful with Thunderbolt 1.4 cables as the one that comes with it works and the others don't, which is odd. Also, G-Sync and Free Sync don't work with Thunderbolt 3, but when you're gaming you're still only using DP 1.4. Viewing HDR on this monitor is mind-blowing. Even if you connect to Xbox or PlayStation, it's just an amazing experience.
