FYI: The 27" version (this one) is IPS, the 32" is VA... Seems this is the standard across the board for Samsung monitors.
I am using both monitors with 2 Windows computers (my personal Desktop, and my Dell work laptop with a Pluggable USBC docking station that supports dual 4k @ 60hz) via a Display Port KVM. None of the Dell docking stations support dual 4k @ 60 hz, so my work sent me this one: https://www.amazon.com/Plugable-T...B0BQJWKBMF .. I actually use 3 KVMS in my setup (one for keyboard, one for each monitor https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0DBYKR8HQ/) so I can have any combination of monitors and computers (instead of just either / or) .. the KVMs are hidden and controlled by the remote switches included
If you are a serious gamer, 60Hz is probably not for you.. Casual gamer like me, it is fine. HDR video looks great too. No dead pixels, just plug and play right out of the box. The color calibration between the 2 are spot on equal with each other. Also, I stick with Display port end to end as the bandwidth etc is better than HDMI.
Samsung also makes a USBC version of this monitor if you absolutely have to have it.
I avoid LG in this price range as they are reportedly unreliable, and Dell does not really have a solid HDR offering in this price range either. So this one ticked all the boxes for me.

I have the USB-C version, but never use the USB-C lol
Doubtful. And it doesn't have built in speakers. It's billed as a standard monitor not one of those smart monitor streaming tv things.
You kidding me? I have neo g8 and even that doesn't support

Doubt msrp is ever that high but $170 is a decent deal. Plenty of monitors in this price range you should check out before committing though.
