If you prioritize digital photo editing and print photo editing with accurate colors, the Asus PA329C with its strong color gamut coverage and larger screen may serve you well. However, for an immersive gaming and media consumption experience, the LG 45GS95QE with its higher refresh rate and superior contrast from OLED technology is a better fit, despite its higher price. The Asus is a better option for productivity tasks due to its higher resolution and larger screen size, while the LG excels in competitive gaming with its quick response time and wide variable refresh rate support. Keep in mind that the LG's W-OLED panel can offer deeper blacks but may not be as bright for HDR content compared to some dedicated HDR displays. Give Feedback

Feroz Khan | February 2022
"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."
