For casual gaming on a budget, the Gigabyte G24F-2 offers a good experience at a lower price, but for those who prioritize competitive gaming and want an immersive, ultra-wide display with better contrast and brightness, the Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 is an excellent choice, albeit at a premium price. The Gigabyte is more suitable for general productivity with its adequate color accuracy, but the Samsung's superior color depth and larger screen may be better for multitasking and media consumption, despite a higher cost. Neither monitor is ideal for serious photo editing or HDR video editing, due to limitations in color gamut and HDR peak brightness. Give Feedback
