If you prioritize a large, immersive display for gaming with deep blacks and excellent contrast at a premium price, the Corsair 45WQHD240 with its OLED technology could serve you well. However, its text clarity and suitability for productivity tasks are poor. On the other hand, the Innocn 27M2V offers a higher resolution and very good performance in productivity and media consumption at an upper midrange price, also suitable for HDR video editing. It is also a strong choice for casual and competitive gaming but falls slightly short of the Corsair's gaming performance. Opt for the Innocn if you seek a balance between gaming, media, and productivity at a lower price point. Give Feedback

How the Corsair 45WQHD240 (W-OLED) and the Innocn 27M2V (IPS MiniLED) compare to other monitors
"Thanks to the wide color gamut, games and videos will look even more vibrant than the standard wide gamut displays (such as LG’s Nano IPS with 98% DCI-P3 and ~90% Adobe RGB, for instance), especially when it comes to blue, cyan and green shades. All in all, if you want a 27″ 4K high refresh rate gaming monitor with a mini LED FALD backlight, the Innocn 27M2V is currently the best model available."
