If cost is a major factor and you engage in casual gaming and productivity tasks, the AOC 24G2SPU with its good refresh rate and response time will be economical and sufficient. However, if you're seeking an immersive gaming and media consumption experience with superior colors, contrast, and a wider screen, the MSI MPG 491CQP will deliver, though at a higher price. It offers high-quality HDR and color accuracy that's especially beneficial for photo and video editing. It's less suited for competitive gaming due to higher response time and may require a more powerful computer to run games at native resolution. Give Feedback
