The prices for monitors with the features described in the piece have come significantly down from when it was written. You can get a very decent 4K@144hz monitor for around $650 USD.

Even that's high, if you're not fussed about having good HDR then 4K IPS at 144hz can be had for about $400 now.

If you do want good HDR, look to the QD-OLED monitors that are currently flooding the market. Those are still pricey though.
