If competitive gaming is your main focus and you desire top refresh rates with minimal ghosting, the Asus XB273U is an excellent choice, though its higher cost reflects this specialty. On the other hand, if you're looking for a larger screen with better resolution and superior image quality for productivity and media viewing, and you also want a monitor capable of delivering a solid HDR experience, the Innocn 32M2V is more cost-effective. It won't match the Asus for gaming performance, but it's better suited for tasks where image detail and color accuracy are priorities. Give Feedback
