For casual gaming on a budget, the Gigabyte G24F-2 provides a good experience at a lower cost. Its smaller size and lower resolution are fine for everyday use and its performance in competitive gaming is solid. However, if you're willing to invest more for a superior visual experience, especially for HDR gaming and media consumption, the KTC G27P6 shines with better color depth, contrast, and larger screen size. The KTC also has a higher resolution, which improves image clarity for productivity tasks. That said, the Gigabyte's faster response time gives it an edge in reducing ghosting for fast-paced games. Choose the KTC for overall better image quality and HDR support or the Gigabyte for cost-effective, responsive gaming and general use. Give Feedback
