If you're a competitive gamer looking for the best gaming experience with the highest refresh rates and exceptional contrast, the AOC PD49 (QD-OLED) is a solid option despite its premium price. However, this monitor might not be optimal for productivity tasks due to its aspect ratio and potential for lower text clarity. For productivity, casual gaming, and general media consumption at a more affordable price, the LG 34WQ75C (IPS) can deliver good performance, especially with its more conventional aspect ratio and higher text clarity. Although it has a slower refresh rate which may not be ideal for competitive gaming and lacks the superior color and contrast performance of the AOC monitor. Give Feedback
