If budget is a priority and you engage primarily in casual gaming or need a monitor for general productivity, the AOC 24G2SPU offers a solid choice with good performance in these areas at a midrange price. However, if you're ready to invest more for a premium experience and you're interested in high-resolution content creation, HDR gaming, or media consumption, the Sony M9 will offer significantly better image clarity, color accuracy, and a sharper display due to its higher resolution and HDR capabilities, but it won't significantly improve your competitive gaming experience despite the higher cost.
