If you prioritize detailed, high-resolution work, such as photo editing or productivity tasks, on a larger screen at an upper midrange price, the Asus PA329CV with its larger screen and good text clarity might suit you well, although it is not the best choice for gaming or HDR content. On the other hand, if you're willing to invest in a premium-priced monitor for an exceptional gaming experience with high contrast and responsiveness, the LG 45GR95QE offers superior performance in these areas, but its smaller screen and lower resolution might not be ideal for tasks that benefit from a larger and more pixel-dense display.

How the Asus PA329CV (IPS) and the LG 45GR95QE (W-OLED) compare to other monitors
"The LG UltraGear 45GR95QE-B is a brilliant ultrawide gaming monitor that'll dominate your desk, and its 800R curve serves to trick the senses. It's ridiculously pricey, and 4K fans may notice the difference with this 4K panel, but its OLED capabilities and arsenal of features almost justify its price tag. Just make sure you've got decent PC specs and plenty of space for this brute before parting with any cash."
