If your priority is high-quality photo editing, the LG 32EP950 with its excellent color accuracy across multiple color spaces and print photo editing suitability is a superb choice, despite its higher price and lower refresh rate which is less ideal for gaming. On the other hand, if you're looking for more balance with a tilt towards gaming, the MSI MPG 321URX offers a high refresh rate and variable refresh rate support, which improves gaming smoothness and responsiveness, as well as superb color quality for creative tasks, all at a lower price point than the LG.
