If exceptional contrast and low ghosting are vital for your gaming experience, the Acer X27U (W-OLED) is an excellent choice, although it might not be the best for productivity due to its lower resolution. On the other hand, the Innocn 32M2V (IPS MiniLED) offers a larger screen with higher resolution, which is better for productivity and detailed photo editing, at a lower cost. However, for very competitive gaming, the Acer's superior response time and refresh rate could be more important. Both monitors support HDR gaming and media, but the Acer's higher peak brightness may enhance that experience. Give Feedback

"Whlie not perfect, the Innocn 32M2V is an excellent HDR gaming monitor if you want a 32″ 4K high refresh rate display – just make sure you’re familiar with all its flaws. If you’ve been waiting for a 32″ 4K high refresh rate gaming monitor with proper HDR support, the Innocn 32M2V is the first model available at a reasonable price."
