If you prioritize competitive gaming and high refresh rates without spending as much, the Gigabyte FO27Q3 with its QD-OLED panel is the more suitable monitor. However, it isn't as well-suited for multitasking or expansive workflows when compared to the LG. The LG 34GS95QE boasts a larger, ultrawide screen which is excellent for productivity and media consumption, offering a more immersive experience but at a higher price. Both share superior color accuracy and are excellent for HDR gaming and photo editing. Keep in mind that the Gigabyte offers a more vivid image and quicker response time, which is beneficial for fast-paced games, whereas the LG provides a wider screen space useful for work and entertainment.
