If you prioritize photo editing and value a larger screen with a higher resolution at a more affordable price, the Asus PA329CV with its IPS panel would serve you well. On the other hand, if you're a casual or competitive gamer who also enjoys vibrant HDR media, the ViewSonic VX2776 OLED, despite its higher cost, provides excellent contrast, color performance, and better gaming features like a higher refresh rate. The ViewSonic's OLED technology will also offer superior viewing angles and deeper blacks than the Asus's IPS panel. Keep in mind the ViewSonic has a lower resolution and smaller screen size, which might be less ideal for productivity tasks. Give Feedback
