If you're a competitive gamer looking for the best performance, the Asus PG32UCDM with its superior refresh rate and response time offers an exceptional gaming experience. It's also well-suited for HDR gaming and media consumption thanks to its excellent color volume and peak brightness. However, for productivity tasks or print photo editing, the Innocn 27M2U may be more appropriate, boasting capabilities for accurate color work and a sharper image due to its smaller screen with the same resolution. The Innocn is also significantly lighter on your wallet. Keep in mind though, for fast-paced games, the Asus will outshine the Innocn with its lower ghosting and higher very good refresh rate capabilities. Give Feedback

How the Asus PG32UCDM (QD-OLED) and the Innocn 27M2U (IPS MiniLED) compare to other monitors
"The Innocn 27MU2 screen isn’t built to Apple standards, but it’s robust enough for desktop use and surprisingly lightweight, considering its image quality. The stand is rock steady and adjustable, plus the screen can be wall mounted. There are plenty of input options plus the ability to display two sources on screen at the same time."
