If you prioritize a larger screen and an ultra-wide aspect ratio for an immersive gaming or media experience and don't mind a higher price, the Corsair 45WQHD240 with its 45-inch display could be the right choice for you. However, if you're looking for a smaller, more traditional monitor that offers a good balance between price and performance, the LG 27GR95QE with its 27-inch display offers similar OLED quality and high refresh rates for less money, making it suitable for both gaming and productivity. Keep in mind though, the Corsair's wider screen is less suited for productivity tasks due to its size and resolution. Give Feedback

PC Gamer

Jorge Jimenez | March 2023
"The LG 27GR95QE-B is a stellar display that makes 1440p again the PC gaming sweet spot due to its high 240Hz refresh rate and fantastic latency. However, its low overall brightness and lack of onboard settings keep it from being great."
