If you prioritize a premium gaming experience with deep blacks and sharp colors for HDR games and media, the Acer Predator X45 with its OLED screen is excellent, though it's a significant investment. On the other hand, if you're interested in a more cost-effective option that handles gaming well, especially at high refresh rates, the Innocn 27G1S would suffice, albeit with lesser HDR capability and color performance. For tasks involving digital photo editing, the Acer is superior due to its color accuracy, but for general productivity and casual gaming, both monitors will serve you well. Keep in mind the size difference, as the Acer's larger and ultrawide screen offers more immersive gaming and multitasking, while the Innocn's smaller size is more standard and may fit better in limited spaces.

Notebook Check

Allen Ngo | June 2023
"The monitor is a sweet spot for gamers who want something faster than 165 Hz while keeping the benefits of fast response times and relative affordability. The VA panel is now more competitive against many IPS options."
