If you're heavily into competitive gaming and need extremely fast response times, the KTC G27P6 with its OLED panel is your better option, although it's not the best for tasks that require image clarity and text quality. In contrast, the KTC M27T20 is a strong all-rounder with excellent contrast and suitable for print photo editing, making it a more versatile choice at a lower cost. It also delivers a good gaming experience, but not up to the level of the G27P6. For HDR gaming and media consumption, both are suitable, but the OLED will have better dark room performance due to its infinite contrast ratio. Give Feedback
