If you're looking for deep blacks and vivid colors for gaming and media consumption, especially in darker environments, the KTC G27P6 (W-OLED) will deliver remarkable contrast and is particularly suited for HDR gaming. However, its text clarity and overall image sharpness may not be ideal for productivity tasks. On the other hand, the ViewSonic XG341C-2K (VA Mini LED) is excellent for print photo editing and offers a wider screen which can be better for multitasking and productivity, but with a higher price. It also provides good gaming performance, though might not match the KTC's contrast ratio for HDR content. Give Feedback
