LG UltraGear 27" QHD 180Hz Gaming Monitor vs MSI MPG 321URX QD-OLED
The LG 27" UltraGear is the sensible pick for most shoppers: a 27-inch 1440p IPS panel at 180Hz (200Hz overclock) with 1ms GtG, G-Sync Compatible and FreeSync, HDR10 and 99% sRGB, plus a height, tilt and pivot stand. The MSI MPG 321URX QD-OLED is a clear step up in image quality and speed: 32-inch 4K QD-OLED at 240Hz with 0.03ms GtG, near-infinite contrast, DisplayHDR True Black 400, HDMI 2.1 for consoles and USB-C.
