If you prioritize a larger screen with crisper resolution for tasks like photo editing and media consumption, the Asus PG32UCDM with its high-quality OLED panel could be a great choice despite its higher price. On the other hand, if you prefer a more affordable monitor that still offers excellent gaming performance with high refresh rates and good color reproduction, the LG 27GR95QE would be a better pick. The Asus excels in image clarity and color depth which is crucial for professional editing work, while the LG provides strong performance for gaming due to its faster response time and high peak brightness, especially suitable for games with HDR content.

How the Asus PG32UCDM (QD-OLED) and the LG 27GR95QE (W-OLED) compare to other monitors
