If you're focused on value and don't mind a smaller screen with lower resolution, the AOC 24G2SPU offers a good casual gaming experience on a budget. However, if you prefer a larger display with sharper images for a mix of gaming and productivity, the LG 32GP850 might be worth the extra investment, as it also offers a higher resolution which is better suited for tasks requiring more screen real estate. Neither monitor is ideal for high-end, color-critical work like HDR video editing or print photo editing, but both are sufficient for general use and gaming. Give Feedback
