If budget is a major concern and you prioritize productivity with some photo editing on the side, the Dell U2723QE offers good text clarity and image sharpness at a lower price. However, if you're a competitive gamer or want an exceptional contrast ratio for immersive HDR gaming and media consumption, the KTC G27P6 with its superior OLED panel might be worth the extra cost. Note that the Dell's higher resolution is better for detailed work, but the KTC might offer a smoother gaming experience with its higher refresh rate. Keep in mind though, the Dell is more versatile for a range of tasks, while the KTC focuses on delivering high-quality visuals for gaming and watching videos. Give Feedback
