If you're on a budget and primarily involved in casual gaming or everyday productivity, the AOC 24G2SPU offers a smaller screen and lower resolution but at a much more accessible price. For competitive gamers, it also provides solid performance with minimal ghosting. However, if you're interested in a more immersive experience with higher resolution for both gaming and media consumption, and are willing to invest in a premium monitor, the LG 32GQ950 would be a better fit. It boasts a larger screen with higher clarity and is suitable for detailed digital photo editing, though the tradeoff includes a higher price and only fair performance in competitive gaming scenarios.
