If you need a monitor for tasks requiring accurate colors like digital photo editing or print photo editing, and have a larger budget, the Asus PA329C offers a wider range of color accuracy, higher resolution, and is especially suitable for productivity due to its larger screen size. However, if your priority is gaming—especially competitive gaming—and you're looking for better value, the LG 27GP83B is the better choice. It provides a higher refresh rate and a very good gaming experience, but it's not as well-suited for color-critical work and has a lower resolution which may not be as good for productivity tasks.

"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."

"The LG 27GP83B-B offers today’s sweet spot in gaming specs and capabilities in a well-designed premium package. It’s the first 1440p upgrade over the previous releases such as the LG 27GL83A-B with improvements in image quality thanks to its Nano IPS panel."
