If price is a significant concern and your usage includes activities like casual gaming or digital photo editing, the LG 34GP83A (IPS) could be a suitable choice. It offers good color accuracy and a decent gaming experience. On the other hand, if you're a competitive gamer or prioritize high-quality media consumption and HDR gaming, the LG 34GS95QE (W-OLED) stands out with superior contrast, brightness, and response times, though at a premium price. The OLED model also excels in color depth for print photo editing. Remember, you'll sacrifice some brightness with the OLED, which could be a concern if you work in a very bright environment.
