If cost is a significant concern and you engage in competitive gaming, the Innocn 27G1S with its very good refresh rate and response time offers a strong value. However, for the best visual quality in HDR gaming and media, along with superior color depth for photo editing, the ViewSonic VX2776 OLED is the better option, although it comes at a premium price and its total response time is not as ideal for competitive gaming. For productivity and text clarity, both monitors are fair, but image clarity is better on the ViewSonic due to its OLED panel. Give Feedback
