If you prioritize competitive gaming and want the best experience, the Asus PG34WCDM (W-OLED) excels with its ultra-wide screen and high refresh rate, making it a strong choice despite the higher price. However, it's not as well-suited for productivity due to its curved display which may distort lines and shapes. On the other hand, the KTC G27P6 (W-OLED) offers good gaming performance and excellent color accuracy at a lower price, making it suitable for everyday use and digital photo editing. Its smaller size and traditional aspect ratio are better for general productivity tasks. If cost is a concern and you need a monitor that's versatile for both work and play, the KTC may be the smarter financial choice. Give Feedback
