There's three other monitors with the same IPS panel though. The Acer XB271HU is one of them and seems to be available at a decent price.

do you think this is normal for 4ms ?

i asked this guy about the fps during his video, he said it was between 70 and 80 with gsync enabled (gtx 1080)

he said when he disable the gsync, there is no noticeable ghosting at all

monitor without gsync is not usable for me, i cant use it with tearing and stuttering

i tried your trick couple days ago trying to use it, capping the fps with the 143.9... , with vsync on but the input lag is also not acceptable for me

That looks like trolling to me. Or whoever uploaded that video has a defective unit. But I suspect trolling. If you record video from a monitor in a dark room you get a lower shutter speed, and any LCD monitor will look blurry.

This monitor has the same panel as the ViewSonic (just a slightly different revision,) and performs very similarly. The other monitors with this same panel are the Asus PG279Q and the AOC AG271QG.

RealNC has an XG2703-GS.

It is my understanding that this specific model is discontinued, but you can get similar panels -- check the "165 Hz IPS" panels (they all use the same panel) in the monitor list below:
