If you're looking for a monitor that offers good performance for competitive gaming because of its higher refresh rate, the Acer XB323U-GX could be suitable, and it's also calibrated for color-critical work like digital and print photo editing. However, the LG 32GS95UE has a higher resolution, better contrast, and is more suitable for HDR gaming and media consumption due to its OLED panel, which produces vibrant colors and deeper blacks. The LG is also better for productivity and media consumption with crisper text and image clarity. Choose the Acer if you prioritize gaming and photo editing with a tighter budget. Opt for the LG if you're willing to invest more for a superior all-around media experience and sharper resolution. Give Feedback
