If your priority is value for money and a solid monitor for productivity with good image clarity and suitable for digital photo editing, the Dell U3223QE is a strong choice without straining your budget. However, if you're willing to invest in top-tier visual quality for HDR gaming and media consumption with deeper contrasts and more vibrant colors, the Gigabyte FO32U2P excels, especially in competitive gaming with its higher refresh rates. The tradeoff is not just in cost, but also the Dell monitor falls short in gaming performance compared to the Gigabyte. Give Feedback
