If immersive gaming and a wide field of view are priorities and you're ready to invest in a premium monitor, the LG 34GS95QE with its larger screen and ultrawide aspect might be the right choice despite its higher cost and regular performance in color-critical tasks. However, if you're looking for a balance between cost and performance with excellent color accuracy and contrast for both gaming and productivity without the ultrawide experience, the Pixio PX277 OLED Max offers a lot of value for its price. Keep in mind the Pixio's smaller, standard aspect ratio screen won't give the same expansive view as the LG's ultrawide display. Give Feedback
