If budget is a concern and you mainly engage in casual gaming and productivity tasks, the AOC 24G2SPU with its full HD resolution and smaller screen size would be cost-effective. On the other hand, if you're a serious gamer looking for higher refresh rates and a more immersive experience with larger screen size and better resolution, the Gigabyte FI32Q-X may be worth the extra investment, although it may not offer as much value for non-gaming activities. Neither monitor is ideal for HDR gaming or media consumption, as their HDR peak brightness and color gamut do not support advanced HDR performance. Give Feedback
