If you prioritize high refresh rates and value for competitive gaming, the Acer XB323U-GX with its IPS panel features fast response times and a high variable refresh rate range making it suitable for fast-paced games. However, if you're willing to invest more for stunning contrast and colors for HDR gaming and media, the LG 39GS95QE with its W-OLED display offers an infinite contrast ratio and true blacks, although it may not be as bright in HDR. The wider screen of the LG also provides an immersive experience for productivity and media consumption, but the Acer's higher pixel density might be better for detailed work. The LG's aspect ratio is great for multitasking or panoramic views, while the Acer has a more traditional aspect ratio that is widely compatible with content. Both monitors cater to photo editing, but the Acer is also suitable for print photo editing with its high AdobeRGB coverage. Give Feedback
