If your priority is high-resolution imagery and detailed work such as digital photo editing, the ASUS PA329CV with its larger screen and high resolution could serve you well, especially if you are on a tighter budget. However, if you're an enthusiast or competitive gamer looking for superior contrast and response times, the LG 27GR95QE offers incredible deep blacks and smooth gameplay due to its OLED technology, albeit at a higher price. Lastly, for HDR gaming and media consumption, the LG's superior peak brightness and color gamut will provide a more immersive experience. Give Feedback

PC Gamer

Jorge Jimenez | March 2023
"The LG 27GR95QE-B is a stellar display that makes 1440p again the PC gaming sweet spot due to its high 240Hz refresh rate and fantastic latency. However, its low overall brightness and lack of onboard settings keep it from being great."
