If you prioritize an exceptional image quality for HDR gaming and media consumption with the deepest blacks and vibrant colors, either the Corsair 45WQHD240 or the LG 45GR95QE, both featuring OLED technology, will excel in these areas. However, if budget is a concern, the LG offers a similar quality at a lower price point. The Corsair does have higher brightness, which could enhance HDR performance, but it lacks an adjustable stand, which can be important for ergonomics. For tasks that demand accurate color reproduction, such as digital photo editing, both monitors are suitable, though neither is optimized for HDR video editing. For competitive gaming, their high refresh rates and low response times are great, but in productivity tasks, their poor text quality might be a drawback. Overall, consider the LG if you want to save money without compromising much on performance and features. Give Feedback

Phil Hayton | August 2023
"The LG UltraGear 45GR95QE-B is a brilliant ultrawide gaming monitor that'll dominate your desk, and its 800R curve serves to trick the senses. It's ridiculously pricey, and 4K fans may notice the difference with this 4K panel, but its OLED capabilities and arsenal of features almost justify its price tag. Just make sure you've got decent PC specs and plenty of space for this brute before parting with any cash."
