PC Monitor HDR???

As of right now, YouTube's HDR mode (VP9-PQ) only works with the new ChromeCast Ultra and "soon on all 2016 Samsung SUHD and UHD TVs" via software update. Read here for more details on supported hardware and content:

Unfortunately you can't just watch it in HDR via your browser - it is downsampled.

I'm only offering up this next bit because your post makes it seems like you don't understand how it works. 10-bit isn't a requirement HDR in general. Not even wide color gamut is. HDR is a metadata stream on top of whatever video stream it is combined with. All that matters is that you have a display capable of decoding HDR metadata. The BEST types of displays available now that will give you the BEST results will be 10-bit, wide-color gamut-enabled displays with HDR10 and Dolby Vision support.
