If competitive gaming is your focus and you're willing to invest more, the Acer with its higher refresh rate and response to fast-moving images is better suited for you. On the other hand, if you prioritize productivity, digital photo editing, and high-resolution HDR video content at a lower price, the Innocn offers superior screen resolution, color performance, and is also capable of HDR gaming and media consumption. However, although the Innocn provides better image clarity and text quality, it may not be as smooth as the Acer in fast-paced games due to the lower refresh rate. Give Feedback
