If you're seeking exceptional image clarity for gaming and media with high contrast and color depth, the Asus PG32UCDM is a strong choice, especially if you prefer a glossy finish that can enhance colors but could reflect light in a bright room. However, its refresh rate and motion handling are particularly suited for competitive gaming. For productivity or print photo editing, the LG 45GS95QE might be preferable, offering a broader screen for multitasking, albeit in a matte finish, which reduces glare but might not provide the same vibrancy. Keep in mind, the LG is more expensive and has a lower brightness, which may affect HDR performance. Give Feedback
