List price: $699
There is a $150 costco shopping card that will be sent in 6-8 weeks if you use Costco Visa

So 700+tax-50 = $710 +150 Costco Card OTD
Basically, the $50 off 500 takes care of most of the taxes...state-dependent of course.
Great for a gamer if you have the right GPU to drive this thing!

Actually was thinking of getting this monitor before I got my NEC monitor due to 3D LUT and display uniformity of the NEC.
Only reason was even thinking of this monitor is because it is true 10bit 4K but doesnt really make much difference without 3D LUT or being able to modify it like the NEC can if you are serious about color accuracy.
Better off looking at different display if you are getting it more for HDR and look for the DisplayHDR 1000 certified displays that require at least 0.05 black min https://displayhdr.org/
Even the few HDR 600 competitors in the sub-$1000 range aren't all that great for HDR content because they don't have enough dimming zones to do it well. I love my LG 27GN950-B, but I don't use it for HDR for exactly that reason.

It's a step up from the XV/XB273K, but obviously lacking with HDR400, DP 1.4 (no DSC), HDMI 2.0, NOT TRUE 10-BIT. Supposedly pretty color accurate, but I didn't measure. The HDR is full screen backlit, so you can decide whether that's okay with you.
If you need a 4K, 144Hz, new condition monitor right now (that's not the GN950), this is the one to get.
For the record, these types of monitors (~$700) aren't comparable at all to new releases ($1000+ OLED, $3000 miniLED). Folks predicting massive price drops for miniLED future releases are lying to you, however you still should wait, as I imagine the 2nd hand market will see new stock in used X27's, PG27UQ's, etc.

any good monitor you recommend in Costco ? Around $250-$350 Budget . I want to spend my Costco coupon but just don't know which monitor is good in their website . I mainly use my monitor for browsing and very light gaming …so I do not need a gaming monitor
