If you're a competitive gamer looking for peak performance with exceptional response times and a high refresh rate, the AOC AG456UCZD (W-OLED) would be a better choice, despite its higher price. For tasks that require accurate colors, like digital photo editing, the AOC's W-OLED panel will outshine the LG. However, the LG 34WQ75C (IPS) offers good text quality and image clarity at a lower cost, making it suitable for casual gaming, everyday productivity, and general media consumption. Yet, it falls short for HDR gaming and media, where the AOC excels. The final decision should balance your need for high-end gaming performance or color accuracy against budget constraints.
