If you prioritize a high-quality gaming and media experience and are willing to invest more, the LG 34GS95QE with its W-OLED panel will offer deep blacks and excellent contrast, making it superior for HDR content. However, if budget is a concern and your focus is on general productivity with occasional gaming, the Gigabyte M32Q will provide a good balance of features at a lower cost. It won't match the LG's performance in HDR or have the same color depth, but it will still deliver a satisfactory experience for most users. Give Feedback
