If your priority is competitive gaming and experiencing vivid colors in HDR gaming and media, the Cooler Master GZ2711 with its W-OLED panel could be an excellent choice, despite its higher price. Its low response time and high refresh rate make it ideal for fast-paced games, and its color performance is better suited to HDR content. However, for tasks that require sharp text and detail like productivity work, the Dell U2723QE’s higher screen resolution and good color accuracy, at a lower price point, could serve you better, though it isn't as well-suited for gaming due to its lower refresh rate and response time.
