I'm looking for an external monitor for my Macbook Pro. It can support up to 5K resolution (5120x2880). You can spend from $120 to $1300, depending on whether you get HD, 4K, or 5K. $1300 gets you an LG 27 inch 5K.

Here comes the tricky part... $1300 also get you something that works in the P3 color space. I typically use Adobe RGB in Photoshop and struggle to reproduce my old calibrated monitor's look on the CMYK printed page.

Does anyone here have any experience going from the dark old days to a P3 monitor? I could buy two 4K RGB monitors for less $ than the 5K P3 (the Macbook Pro can support two 5K monitors simultaneously).
