If you prioritize a large, ultrawide screen for an immersive gaming or multitasking experience and don't mind spending more, the Acer Predator X45 is a strong option, although it may not be the best for sharp text or high brightness in well-lit rooms. On the other hand, the LG 27GS95QE, being more affordable, offers a smaller screen suitable for both gaming and general use, with higher peak brightness which may be beneficial for HDR content, but it's not as well-suited for editing HDR videos due to its lower color gamut coverage.
