If you're on a budget and primarily engage in casual gaming or need a monitor for general productivity, the Lenovo G24-20 would be a cost-effective choice. It offers a satisfactory experience for day-to-day tasks and casual gaming with a good refresh rate. However, if you're a competitive gamer seeking superior performance, clarity, and wish to indulge in HDR gaming and media consumption, the LG 27GR95QL with its better refresh rate, higher resolution, and superior contrast would deliver a more immersive and responsive experience, albeit at a higher cost. Keep in mind, for tasks like digital photo editing, the LG's wider color gamut and higher color depth would be beneficial. Give Feedback
