The Acer Predator X45 will excel in HDR gaming and media consumption and is well-suited for photo editing tasks, offering great image clarity due to its image quality. However, it's not as strong for competitive gaming because of its response time. The LG 45GR95QE-B, meanwhile, is a better pick for competitive gamers due to its faster response time, reducing ghosting, and offering a clear advantage for fast-paced games. It isn't as well-rounded for HDR video editing and isn't ideal for print photo editing. Both monitors provide immersive experiences with their large, curved displays, but choose the Acer for a focus on visual editing and media, or the LG for a competitive gaming edge. Give Feedback
