If you're looking for an affordable monitor for general use with good text clarity, reasonable color accuracy, and a wide aspect ratio for multitasking, the LG 34WQ75C might be suitable. However, for enthusiasts seeking a high-caliber gaming experience or photographers and videographers needing excellent color depth and contrast, the LG 45GR95QE offers superior performance in these areas, with the tradeoff being a higher price. This premium monitor excels in color reproduction and has a faster response time for gaming, but its cost and potentially less sharp text might not be justifiable for casual use. Give Feedback

How the LG 34WQ75C (IPS) and the LG 45GR95QE (W-OLED) compare to other monitors
"The LG UltraGear 45GR95QE-B is a brilliant ultrawide gaming monitor that'll dominate your desk, and its 800R curve serves to trick the senses. It's ridiculously pricey, and 4K fans may notice the difference with this 4K panel, but its OLED capabilities and arsenal of features almost justify its price tag. Just make sure you've got decent PC specs and plenty of space for this brute before parting with any cash."
