If competitive gaming is your priority, the Acer XB323U-GX with its high refresh rate and responsiveness is a better fit, but it's not as strong for HDR gaming and media where the Innocn 32Q1U excels with its superior contrast and color depth. The Acer is geared more toward productivity with its fair image clarity and adjustable stand, while the Innocn, with its higher resolution OLED panel, offers a more vivid viewing experience for media and photo editing despite a lower refresh rate and lack of variable refresh rate support. Choose the Acer for competitive gaming and multitasking, or the Innocn for immersive media and detailed creative work. Give Feedback
