For competitive gaming and a premium visual experience, the Asus PG32UCDM with its high refresh rate and outstanding contrast would be ideal, though at a premium price. The Dell S2722QC offers good image clarity and color accuracy for productivity and photo editing at a lower cost, but it is not as suitable for high-end gaming or HDR content. If you can invest more for top-tier gaming and media consumption, consider the Asus; for budget-conscious general use and casual gaming, the Dell might be a better fit. Give Feedback

Matthew Smith | March 2022
"The Dell S2722QC offers 4K, USB-C, HDR, and integrated speakers for a uniquely affordable price, but makes some image quality sacrifices to hit its low cost. It’s a good everyday productivity monitor that you should buy for its features, not its performance."
