If you're on a budget and mainly interested in casual or even competitive gaming, the Gigabyte G24F-2 (IPS) is a cost-effective choice with good refresh rates and decent color performance for gaming and everyday use. However, if superior image quality and a top-tier gaming experience are priorities, and you're willing to invest more, the MSI MAG 271QPX (QD-OLED) offers exceptional contrast and color accuracy that enhance both gaming and media consumption. It also excels in color-critical tasks like photo and video editing. Keep in mind, though, the MSI model may not be as cost-effective if your primary use is productivity tasks. Give Feedback
