Don't jump so much ahead, it's almost 2018 and we are still missing a decent quality 1440p 144Hz screen that isn't a TN panel. After that we can talk about extra HDR bells and whistles - which don't even work currently on PC.
I'd see even the Eizo FS2735 $1200 price point justified, if they had an A-TW polarizer to remove AUO M270's horrible IPS glow of the lower right corner on most panels.
I think this will be better than those lottery struck Gysnc/Freesync BLB mess monitors from Asus and Acer. I have seen owners of LG monitors complain a lot less than those who owns Asus or Acer gaming monitors. But again i might be wrong .......
well having a Benq BL3200pt, this has only thing missing, 144Hz, and gsync. same size and resolution which suits me fine. hope the lag is lower (benq 23.0ms TFTcentral), and of cours flicker free.
849US translates to 950euro in my ****ty country.

. I hope LG Canada will wake up and newegg.ca will offer similar deal.... cough cough
I'm trying to upgrade LG 32LD450 1080p (o/c to 75Hz)... IPS with 4:4:4 support. I didn't want to go into 4k, as you need a lot of juice to drive it.
Currently I have 3570k@4.5 (planning to upgrade to 8700k later this year) with gtx1070. I had Acer xb271hu for few weeks, but I couldn't dowgrade in size.
They must have received new info this week then. I based my post on
Anyway, March is so far away..I was hoping for a nice Xmas gift to accompany my 1080Ti.
If reviews are good and black transitions not too bad I'm probably going to import from US and eat the 25% import tax + no warranty...
Or it's a mistake on the specsheet and it's actually IPS. But there's no 32" 144hz IPS (or AHVA) panels on the market. Unless..LG manufactured their own.
Edit: if one of you US guys could get a hold of support and ask what the actual contrast ratio is then we could verify if it's actually VA or IPS.
Judging by the color gamut, size, and curve (or, rather, lack of), it could have been an order from Innolux. It's not like I see Samsung selling panels to LG, but what the hell do I know.
It is quite strange for LG to use a VA panel since they are an IPS panel manufacturer. But they also went out of their way to put panel type "VA" on their spec sheet, but then list no contrast ratio.
Actually scratch that, PcMonitors.info gave up some good info:

Nope. The new Alienware is using 100hz native. Review is up on tftcentral posted like 2 days ago. Also in the specs it says 144hz and 165hz oc which indicates 144hz native.

According to this post it is only 1000:1, which points to IPS/AHVA panel...
Spoke with LG US support this time and it will be coming to Europe a few months after the US and apparently MEGA contrast is actually 1000:1 (Might not be proper VA after all and possibly be a AHVA panel). Finally the guy said it would be in the US around Black Friday to Christmas.
The date has been correct as per Neweggs preorder date, so maybe contrast rate is the same. My guess is it is AHVA panel, thus LG could not label it as IPS monitor. Maybe there was a licensing issues with AOU owning the name... LOL...
I preordered hoping it was a VA. I also have the Alienware coming and will keep one of the 2.
At least this comes with that Logitech keyboard I can use as a doorstop.
EDIT: LG's 1 year warranty is super scary.
