However, the Gigabyte FO32U2P (QD-OLED) offers a larger screen, higher brightness suitable for HDR gaming and media, and better performance for both casual and competitive gaming due to its higher refresh rate and variable refresh range, all at a lower price. The Gigabyte may be a more versatile choice for various use cases if you're looking to balance between work and play. Give Feedback
