My latest acquisition and somewhat of a bargain is an ASUS PB287Q Gaming Monitor - 28'' 4K UHD (3840x2160), 1ms, Flicker free.

I managed to bag the sucker for £120 ($165) + postage as a friend of a friend was selling it.

Cheers Mike, it was too good an offer to pass up. I should get £80 ($110) for my old 27" 1080p monitor so it was a no brainer really!

Nice deal.
I couldn't find how much color gamut(% the color sRGB spectrum) it has in the specs though.

Thanks, I found this in a review -

The Asus PB287Q covers 87% of the sRGB colour space, which is about what we’d expect for a decent TN monitor. Accuracy is good, too, with a DeltaE of 1.95 a very decent result — we’re happy with anything less than 2.0 most of the time.

Sounds good to me, and it looks like a good gaming one too.

My 4K is a professional monitor and not for gaming, but as I do a lot of graphics stuff, the 100% sRGB was more important to me.
But is also has color settings for CAD and animation(like in Blender), presentations, and M-book.

I read a lot of reviews on this one before I said I would buy it. They all said it was great for gaming but really not good for graphics stuff and the viewing angle isn't great if you have it in portrait but I only want it for general web surfing and gaming so it suites my needs. And I must admit games look fantastic on it. It does push the 1080ti a fair bit due to the resolution but I wanted to give it a work out lol.

Great monitor Paul, congrats. I have been looking at monitors and I can tell you, that's a great price you got it for. I did find this

ASUS PB278Q gives you superior images with lifelike colors thanks to 100% sRGB color gamut.
