If you prioritize high-quality HDR gaming and media consumption with deep blacks and vibrant colors, then the costlier LG 32GS95UE, with its OLED display, would be the better choice. However, if you're focused on general productivity and digital photo editing, where color accuracy is important, and are looking for a more cost-effective solution, the LG 34GP83A with its IPS panel offers a good balance without breaking the bank. Keep in mind, for competitive gaming, the refresh rates and response times on the OLED are superior, but it does come at a higher price point. The IPS display, while adequate for casual and competitive gaming, might not provide the same high contrast and color depth as the OLED. Give Feedback
