Help me decide on Yamaha Reface DX vs Behringer Model D (or suggestions :b)

Hi guys, for the past two days I've been obsessing over which synth i should buy for the price of about 350€ (max). My first options would be the DX, Model D, a used Roland Gaia and a used Behringer Deepmind 6. Unfortunately where i live there are no used Roland Gaia's or Deepmind's so those ones rule out of the question for being too expensive. That leaves me with the Model D and the DX. I already have a MicroKorg and being that my problem with it is it's user interface going for the DX at first glance does not seem like a good choice. The thing is my other problem with it is that it only has 4 note polyphony and I'm interested in playing complex chords, chord progressions, etc. The genre of music I'm aiming towards i guess you could call it 70's psych pop rock (somewhere in there).
While the Model D might seem like the right choice, I'm afraid that because of the monophonic feature and no patch saving that it won't be a good investment for me, although it might be more fun in the begging. The DX has 8 note polyphony so the chord playing is possible, and although I'm probably never gonna use any of it's presets I think it is possible to make some really cool presets with it (resembling the DX7). Anyways I'd appreciate any feedback cause i can't make up my mind.
Thank you for listening <3
