If you need a larger screen and higher resolution for tasks like photo editing where fine detail is key, the Asus PA329C with its larger screen and higher resolution could serve you well, especially with its more comprehensive color gamut coverage which is crucial for accurate color work. On the other hand, if you prefer superior contrast, better response times for high-paced gaming, and a monitor suitable for HDR gaming and media consumption, the ViewSonic VX2776 OLED would be the better choice. However, its smaller size and lower resolution may not be as conducive to detailed productivity tasks. Give Feedback

How the Asus PA329C (IPS) and the ViewSonic VX2776 2K OLED (W-OLED) 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."
