If price is a major concern and you're seeking a monitor with a higher gaming performance, especially for casual and HDR gaming, and media consumption, the Acer X34V (QD-OLED) is a strong option. However, the ViewSonic XG341C-2K (VA Mini LED) could be better for productivity tasks and print photo editing due to its higher static contrast and color accuracy for print standards, though it comes at a premium price. Both have a large screen size and resolution suitable for an immersive experience, but the Acer's OLED panel offers exceptional contrast and color performance, which stands out in gaming and watching videos.
