i love my studio displays but they would be absolute dogwater for gaming

Yeah, unfortunately Apple have backed themselves into a corner there with their ~220ppi Retina display standard. Nobody makes monitor-sized panels that dense which also support high refresh rates, they're all limited to 60hz. The Apple monitors still don't support VRR either, even though the software support has been in place on macOS for a while it only works with third party monitors.

I have a 27” 5K display with 218 ppi running at 75Hz. It’s a newly released monitor from Viewsonic.

75Hz would be acceptable however macOS has funky mouse acceleration that makes gaming feel weird.

Thatseems fairly subjective . Specs similar to a MBP? Because mine has a retina, 120 Hz display with HDR with max brightness of 1200 nits.

That MBP display utterly crushes my other standalone monitors- a 4K@60 w/ HDR@300-nits. Or a 1080p @90 Hz (SDR).

but of course. can't wire my linux gaming pc up to my laptop's display without some surgery.
