If you prioritize a large, high-resolution display for a mix of productivity and media consumption and are willing to invest in a premium monitor, the Gigabyte FO32U2 is an excellent choice. It offers superior image quality for HDR gaming and is also great for digital photo editing thanks to its wide color gamut. However, if competitive gaming is your focus and you're looking for a lower-priced option that still delivers top-notch performance with fast response times and high-refresh-rate, the LG 27GS95QE will serve you well. Keep in mind that the LG's screen is smaller and has a lower resolution, which might not be as desirable for productivity and immersive media experiences. Give Feedback
