If competitive gaming is a priority and you're looking for a monitor that responds quickly with high refresh rates, the Gigabyte FI32Q-X would serve you well and save you some money. However, for a more immersive gaming and media experience with a wider screen, albeit at a higher price, the LG 34GP83A with its ultrawide aspect ratio could be a better option. Also, consider if picture quality when editing digital photos is important to you, both monitors are suitable, but the Gigabyte edges out slightly in color accuracy. Neither is ideal for HDR gaming and media consumption, so if that's a key feature for you, you might want to look elsewhere. Give Feedback
