I purchased a Samsung Series 9 s27b970d back in 2012 for like $1200.00, I love the display quality and monitor in general with no regrets on the purchase.. It also was sent in for warranty work from hawaii and servise was great... Im thinking of a new gen gtx amd maybe a top tier 4k monitor, but.... What 4k monitor will outshine the picture quality of my glass paneled Samsung, im afraid anything too cheap would be dissapointing in terms of overal picture quality, which makes me afraid of upgrading with no input... Of course I play games but I also want superb quality... https://www.samsung.com/u...rs/LS27B970DS/ZA-specshttps://www.pcmag.com/art..2/0,2817,2411911,00.asp

Or wait for the pending 8K to roll out

Do you require color correct for work? Or do you just desire good colors for gaming and entertainment? Getting a 4K GSync monitor might be of interest to you if you primarily play games.

I'm thinking of purchase Dell 8k UP3218K, especially with RTX 2080ti ? Is it worth or i have to wait bit more for the prices to go down. It cost around $3515 right now.

Not worth it at this time.

Unless you have work that would help from an 8K display it’s not worth it since you have no 8K movies yet and video games can’t really be played at more then 4K yet. Though that will change prices could fall 30-50% a year making it more easy to recommend. My guess is a year from now we will see $1800 then like $1300 for 8K but I could be wrong.

+1. Without 8K content support I see no logical need for any 8K monitor.
