If competitive gaming is your main focus and you're looking for better response times and higher refresh rates for smoother gameplay, the LG 27GP83B would serve you well, especially considering it's more affordable. However, if you prefer a more immersive experience for productivity tasks with a wide screen, then the LG 34WQ75C, with its ultra-wide display, might be worth the extra investment, despite it not being as responsive for fast-paced games. Neither monitor is the best option if HDR gaming and media consumption are your priorities. Give Feedback
