If you prioritize high-resolution image editing with accurate colors, the Asus PA329C is a strong performer for tasks like digital photo editing, print photo editing, and productivity due to its larger screen and excellent color gamut coverage. However, it's not ideal for HDR gaming and has a lower refresh rate, making it less suitable for competitive gaming. In contrast, the Gigabyte G24F-2 is more budget-friendly and offers a higher refresh rate for smoother gameplay, making it better for casual and competitive gaming. Still, it's less suited for professional color work due to its smaller size and lower resolution. Choose the Asus if detailed, color-critical work is key, or the Gigabyte if gaming performance and cost savings are priorities. Give Feedback

How the Asus PA329C (IPS) and the Gigabyte G24F-2 (IPS) compare to other monitors
"Even at 32 inches, it’s just five inches larger than most professional display monitors, the ASUS ProArt Display PA329CV monitor seems a lot bigger. The color accuracy on the unit I received was excellent, and viewing high-resolution image files on it was pleasing to the eyes. It’s Calman verified, so you can be assured of Hollywood studio-quality color straight out of the box. With multiple USB ports on the monitor and HDMI and USB-C connectivity options, it stands up to the well-established Benq PhotoVue series of monitors."
