This is a Thunderbolt monitor. For Thunderbolt 3/4 the limit is 40 Gbits per second, really 32.4 Gbits for DisplayPort 1.4 uncompressed.
5120 × 2880 (5K resolution) x 30 (bits per pixel) x 60 (hz) = 26,542,080,000 = 26.5 Gbit.
If you wanted to do 120 Hz, that would be 53 Gbit, which exceeds the limit of Thunderbolt 3/4.
It is likely you would need a Thunderbolt 5 version of this monitor, or a DisplayPort 2.0 version, in order to get 5K at much higher refresh rates.

Find a competitor in terms of connectivity, display quality and build quality. Otherwise stop posting useless stuff

I've been waiting for it to drop back to this price but what's frustrating is that Best Buy doesn't have them in stock at ANY stores. Why can't Apple set the same price at the Apple Store so I can pick the damn thing up today and not have to wait for shipping for Best Buy or Amazon?!
I think it depends on your area. I have a few stores within a 25 mile radius that have them in stock (I'm in Southern California).

The nano texture is $1599, but standard glass is still showing $1299 (both are $300 off retail)

I'm in Nor Cal and nothing is in stock at Best Buy or Costco. Sucks.

This monitor has a special niche. 8K monitor, you are looking at the Dell for near $4K. 6K monitor, Dell $2,300, Apple $5K. Other 5K monitors can't match the quality- I just had to return a competing brand for being fuzzy and having a yellowish tint. I used to get headaches, blurry vision, and have eye fatigue at the end of the work day with other monitors. I bought the first Retina 5K iMac when it came out- all my eye issues went away, and it's all I've used ever since.
As an optometrist allow me to say that blurred vision up close has nothing to do with monitor

Yes but not best value.

Samsung 27" S9 Viewfinity 5k, using one now with new Mac mini M4, purchased the monitor last summer from Samsung paid $500.
Now you can get one in the ~= $650 range

And what makes you believe that? You might want to look up Apple's pricing history on displays

I love the height adjustable model so much. It's like the iMac G4, but better. It's so smooth. This is might be my favorite over-priced purchase.
