If you prioritize top-tier gaming with fast response times and exceptional contrast, especially in darker scenes, the LG 27GR95QL (W-OLED) is a premium choice that offers a very good gaming experience and is suitable for both HDR gaming and media consumption. However, if your focus is on productivity, a wider perspective with more screen real estate, and a balance between gaming and everyday use, the larger LG 34GP83A (IPS) provides a wide aspect ratio at an upper midrange price, though it isn't as well-suited for HDR content. Keep in mind that the OLED model may experience image retention or burn-in if static images are displayed for prolonged periods, while the IPS model offers more consistent picture quality with no risk of burn-in.
