Our Verdict
ASUS ROG Swift PG348Q
LG 32UD99-W
The LG 32UD99-W is better than the ASUS ROG PG348Q for most uses. The LG is brighter, has better gradient handling, and supports HDR. The 32UD99 also has a better dark room performance, with much better black uniformity. The PG348Q and 32UD99-W have similar overall gaming performance, but the ASUS can be overclocked to a 100Hz refresh rate when connected with DisplayPort, and it supports NVIDIA G-SYNC instead of FreeSync.
