If you prioritize competitive gaming and have a higher budget, the Acer X27U with its best-in-class performance in this area could be your choice. However, if you want to save money and still enjoy a great gaming experience with excellent color depth and contrast, the KTC G27P6 is a solid option. For productivity and media consumption, the Acer does outperform the KTC but at a steeper price. Keep in mind, the KTC's text and image clarity is rated poorly, making it less suitable for tasks that require sharp visuals. Both are suitable for HDR gaming and have similar screen size and resolution. Choose Acer for superior gaming and varied use, or KTC for mainly gaming-focused use at a lower cost. Give Feedback
