If you're seeking an immersive gaming and media experience, the Acer X34V, with its ultra-wide screen, may appeal to you, allowing for a more cinematic and engaging experience with good performance in competitive gaming. However, keep in mind it won't be as sharp for productivity due to its size and resolution. The ViewSonic XG272 offers better performance for competitive gaming with a higher refresh rate but has a smaller screen and may not be as suited for media consumption. If you need a monitor that's also good for digital photo editing, the ViewSonic has better suitability, but it comes at a premium price compared to the Acer. Give Feedback
