If you prioritize a larger screen for an immersive experience and have the budget, the LG 45GS95QE (W-OLED) may suit your needs; however, for those who prefer to save money and still enjoy premium OLED quality with a slightly smaller display, the LG 34GS95QE (W-OLED) is a solid option. Both excel in color depth, contrast, and are suitable for HDR gaming and photo editing, but if you're into competitive gaming, the higher pixels per inch on the 34-inch might provide better clarity. For productivity tasks, the larger monitor may not be as sharp due to lower pixels per inch, but it offers more screen real estate. Give Feedback
