Color ranges and screen refresh rates

To get VESA HDR 400 reliability, the screen has to go beyond the 400 cd / m2 brightness barrier with 10bit color bandwidth, which is what the screen offers today, but using a different method in conventional mode without using HDR. Count the color compression techniques on the 144Hz refresh rate if I want to get 144Hz with a 10bit band

Chroma Sampling 4: 2: 2 Here you will have up to 12bit color gamut with 2K resolution and 144Hz refresh rate, or you can simply use a 10bit color gamut with 120Hz refresh rate without using Any color compression technique is the best situation from my point of view and you probably don't find a difference of 120Hz with a 10bit color bandwidth without using any of the compression techniques.
