If competitive gaming is your primary interest, the Gigabyte FI32Q-X is a better choice with a higher refresh rate and lower response time, enhancing smooth gameplay and reducing motion blur. However, for productivity and multitasking, the LG 34WQ75C's wider 21:9 screen provides more space to work with multiple applications side by side. The LG monitor also offers a higher color depth which is advantageous for print photo editing and HDR video editing, despite not being explicitly suitable for HDR gaming and media consumption. If you can compromise on gaming performance for a broader workspace and better color depth, the LG 34WQ75C could serve your needs better, provided you're willing to pay a slightly higher price. On the other hand, if gaming performance is a priority and you seek a balance between price and a high gaming refresh rate, the Gigabyte FI32Q-X would be the preferable option. Give Feedback
