If you prioritize a larger, ultrawide screen for an immersive experience in productivity tasks and non-competitive gaming, the LG 34WQ75C could be a great choice; however, it's not ideal for HDR gaming or media consumption. On the other hand, the ViewSonic XG2431 with its higher refresh rate and response time is better suited for competitive gaming, and while it offers good color accuracy, it has a smaller, standard widescreen which might not be as suitable for multitasking workflows. The LG will cost more, so consider if the larger screen and aspect ratio benefits outweigh the cost and the competitive gaming limitations. Give Feedback
