If you prioritize a wider screen for immersive gaming and multitasking, the Phillips 34M2C8600 with its ultrawide format may be a better fit. Its OLED screen provides excellent contrast and color depth for HDR gaming and media consumption. However, if competitive gaming is important to you and you need the highest refresh rates, you might lean towards the ViewSonic VX2776 2K OLED, which has a very good refresh rate though a smaller screen size. Both monitors offer great image clarity, but the ViewSonic may perform slightly better in competitive gaming due to its higher refresh rate capabilities. Keep in mind that the ViewSonic is more expensive, so the Phillips could offer a better price-to-performance ratio, especially if you value screen real estate and cost-effectiveness. Give Feedback
