If you're a serious gamer, particularly one focused on immersive or competitive gaming, the Acer Predator X45 with its wide aspect ratio and high refresh rate will provide a premium experience, but keep in mind it comes at a higher price and might not be as sharp for productivity or media consumption due to its lower pixel density. On the other hand, if you seek higher resolution for crisper text and detailed images for productivity, digital photo editing, and enjoy media consumption with excellent color accuracy, the Phillips 27E1N8900 offers a great balance of features at a lower cost but isn't tailored for high-end gaming due to its lower refresh rate.
