If exceptional image quality and gaming performance are your priorities, the Gigabyte FO27Q3 (QD-OLED) excels, especially for HDR gaming and media with its deep blacks and vibrant colors. However, if the wider screen and multitasking benefits of an ultrawide monitor are more appealing for productivity, and you're looking to save money, the LG 34GP83A (IPS) is a good choice despite its lesser performance in gaming and HDR content. Keep in mind that competitive gamers might prefer the Gigabyte for its higher refresh rate and superior response time, reducing ghosting and providing smoother gameplay. Give Feedback
