If you're on a tighter budget and focused on very good competitive gaming performance, the KTC G27P6 could be a great choice due to its higher refresh rate and broader variable refresh rate range, which reduces ghosting and tearing. However, for ultimate image clarity, digital photo editing, and media consumption thanks to its higher screen resolution and better color performance, the premium-priced LG 27EP950 is superior. It offers excellent color accuracy for professional work but isn't designed for competitive gaming. Keep in mind, the LG's higher resolution will also demand more from your computer hardware for gaming. Give Feedback
