If you prioritize exceptional image quality and are willing to invest more, the Innocn 27M2V with its higher resolution and better overall picture quality is suitable for HDR gaming and media consumption. On the other hand, if competitive gaming at a higher refresh rate is your main interest and you want to save money, the LG 27GP83B offers a very good experience specifically for that purpose, though it is not as well-suited for tasks requiring precise color accuracy, such as photo editing.

Display Ninja
Rob Shafer | January 2024
"Thanks to the wide color gamut, games and videos will look even more vibrant than the standard wide gamut displays (such as LG’s Nano IPS with 98% DCI-P3 and ~90% Adobe RGB, for instance), especially when it comes to blue, cyan and green shades. All in all, if you want a 27″ 4K high refresh rate gaming monitor with a mini LED FALD backlight, the Innocn 27M2V is currently the best model available."

"The LG 27GP83B-B offers today’s sweet spot in gaming specs and capabilities in a well-designed premium package. It’s the first 1440p upgrade over the previous releases such as the LG 27GL83A-B with improvements in image quality thanks to its Nano IPS panel."
