If you prioritize competitive gaming and are sensitive to price, the KTC M27P20 Pro with its excellent refresh rate and lower cost might be the better choice. It's also great for productivity and media consumption, with good image clarity and high resolution, making it versatile for various uses. However, if you're focused on the ultimate contrast and deep blacks for immersive gaming and media experiences, and are okay with spending more, the KTC G27P6 with its OLED panel provides outstanding contrast and color depth, but it's not as sharp for productivity tasks due to its lower resolution. Both are capable of HDR gaming and media consumption, but the MiniLED of the M27P20 Pro also excels in HDR video editing, a consideration if that's important to you. Give Feedback

How the KTC KTC G27P6 (W-OLED) and the KTC M27P20 Pro (IPS MiniLED) compare to other monitors
"Gaming and HDR are the two target uses for this screen, and it does generally very well in both. For gaming there are good response times, a single overdrive mode experience for VRR, super low input lag and solid support for latest gen consoles too. The moderately high 160Hz refresh rate provides good motion clarity, and is a nice combination with the high 4K resolution that provides a sharp and crisp image."
