If you prioritize a vibrant and fast gaming experience, especially in dark scenes, and engage in HDR gaming and video editing, the Gigabyte FO27Q3 (QD-OLED) with its excellent contrast and colors, as well as quick response time, is a solid choice despite its higher price. However, if you prefer a larger screen for multitasking and productivity without the need for the highest refresh rates or color accuracy, the LG 34WQ75C (IPS) would be more cost-effective. The LG's ultrawide format also offers a more immersive experience for casual gaming and media, but note that it isn't ideal for competitive gaming or HDR content. Give Feedback
