If your priority is high-resolution digital photo editing with decent color accuracy, the Asus PA329CV might be more suitable due to its larger screen size and better color coverage for certain color spaces, which can be important for tasks like photo editing. However, the Gigabyte G24F-2 is a more budget-friendly option that still offers good color accuracy and could be better suited for competitive gaming due to its higher refresh rate and quick response time. Keep in mind though, the smaller size and lower resolution of the Gigabyte may not be ideal for productivity tasks that benefit from a larger workspace and sharper text clarity. If high dynamic range (HDR) content is a significant part of your use, neither of these monitors is particularly well-suited for HDR gaming or video editing. Give Feedback
