If you're looking for a great HDR gaming and media consumption experience without spending as much, the Gigabyte FO32U2P with its QD-OLED panel provides exceptional contrast, color volume, and HDR peak brightness. It's also suitable for digital photo editing with high color gamut coverage. On the other hand, the LG 45GS95QE features a larger screen with a wide 21:9 aspect ratio which might be preferred for productivity tasks and immersive gaming, yet it has lower peak brightness for HDR content. Both are solid choices for competitive gaming with high refresh rates and very good total response times, but keep in mind the larger LG might not be as sharp given its lower pixels per inch.
