If you prioritize outstanding gaming performance and vibrant colors for media consumption, the Asus PG32UCDM with its QD-OLED panel will deliver an excellent experience, especially in terms of high contrast and responsiveness, but it comes at a premium price. On the other hand, the Dell U2723QE, while less suitable for competitive gaming due to lower responsiveness, offers very good image quality and is more affordable, making it a solid choice for productivity and casual media viewing. If budget is a significant concern or gaming isn't a priority, the Dell monitor might be the better pick. Give Feedback
