If your priority is immersive HDR gaming and media with deep blacks and vivid colors, the KTC G27P6 with its OLED panel might be your preference, especially if competitive gaming is a focus due to its higher refresh rate and lower response time. On the other hand, if you require a monitor with a higher resolution for detailed productivity tasks and still want good quality for casual gaming and media consumption, the Sony M9 would be a better fit, although its lower refresh rate might not be ideal for highly competitive games.
