If you're on a budget and primarily focused on casual gaming or productivity, the AOC 24G2SPU with its smaller screen and standard resolution will serve you well while keeping costs down. However, if you are a serious gamer or want an expansive, immersive experience for media consumption, and are willing to invest more, the Corsair 45WQHD240 with its larger, curved screen and higher resolution will offer superior performance and visuals, especially in HDR content. The Corsair also has wider color coverage, which is beneficial for photo editing, but both monitors are not ideal choices for professional photo editing tasks that require accurate color representation.
