If you prioritize a high-resolution screen for sharp image quality and are mainly focused on HDR gaming, media consumption, and photo editing, the Asus PA27DCE with its higher price may justify the expenditure. On the other hand, if you're looking for a better value with competent performance in competitive gaming due to a higher refresh rate and don't mind a lower resolution, the KTC G27P6 offers a good balance at a lower cost. Both monitors have OLED panels which provide excellent contrast and color depth, but the tradeoff comes in screen resolution and suitability for different tasks. Give Feedback
