If you're primarily a competitive gamer valuing high refresh rates, deep contrasts, and want an immersive widescreen experience, the AOC AG456UCZD with its OLED panel could be an excellent choice despite its higher price. However, if your focus is on productivity with high image clarity and more screen real estate for detailed work, and you occasionally watch media or edit digital photos, the Dell U2723QE might be more suitable due to its superior resolution and color accuracy, at a more affordable price point. Keep in mind that the AOC's strengths in gaming won't translate as well to productivity tasks, and the Dell's strengths in productivity and clarity won't match the AOC's performance in the realms of high-paced gaming.
