If you prioritize a larger screen for multitasking and some gaming on a budget, the Gigabyte M32Q with its IPS panel might suit you well. However, if you're a competitive gamer or desire the best image quality for HDR gaming and media, and are willing to invest more, the KTC G27P6 with its OLED display offers superior contrast and response times. The latter is also better-suited for color-critical work like photo editing, but its smaller screen could be a drawback for productivity tasks. Keep in mind, the KTC's OLED panel may not be as bright in SDR content compared to the Gigabyte. Give Feedback
