The LG 32GP850 is better suited for gaming with a higher refresh rate, which reduces motion blur and makes for smoother gameplay. It also has variable refresh rate support to reduce screen tearing. Its higher peak brightness and better contrast make it more suitable for gaming and media consumption in various lighting conditions. On the other hand, the LG 34WQ75C offers a wider screen with a 21:9 aspect ratio which can enhance productivity by providing more screen real estate for multitasking and immersive media consumption but has a lower refresh rate which is less ideal for competitive gaming. If cost is a major factor and gaming performance is a priority, the LG 32GP850 is a good choice. If you're focused on productivity and prefer a wider screen, and don't mind spending more, the LG 34WQ75C could be the better option, though it won't be as good for fast-paced gaming. Give Feedback
