If price is a significant concern and your main uses are productivity and casual gaming, the KTC H27T22 (IPS) would be a suitable and more economical choice. However, if you're more focused on competitive gaming and want the best visual experience with superior color range and contrast, especially for HDR gaming and media consumption, the KTC KTC G27P6 (W-OLED) is worth the higher cost. Keep in mind that while the OLED model offers a better picture, it may not be the best for text clarity and long periods of static content due to potential burn-in issues. Give Feedback
