If you prioritize a high-quality picture with excellent contrast and colors for HDR gaming and media along with productivity tasks that benefit from higher resolution and color accuracy, the Gigabyte monitor is a stellar choice. However, if high refresh rates for competitive gaming are your main concern and you're looking to save money, the ViewSonic will serve you well with its fast response times and good motion handling, although at a lower resolution and with less impressive color performance. The Gigabyte excels in delivering a premium viewing experience while the ViewSonic focuses on the needs of high-speed gaming at a more affordable price. Give Feedback
