If you're looking for a monitor that will deliver an excellent gaming experience with top-notch response times and very good performance in competitive gaming, the Asus PG34WCDM might be the right choice for you, especially when considering budget, as it is less expensive. However, its brightness and image clarity are not the best for productivity or media consumption, where the Corsair 45WQHD240 excels despite a higher price. The Corsair also has a larger screen, which could enhance your experience for both gaming and watching media, but its total response time and text quality might not be adequate for fast-paced games or extended periods of text-heavy tasks.
