Our Verdict
Dell G3223Q
LG 32GQ950-B
The Dell G3223Q and the LG 32GQ950-B are competing 4k, 32-inch gaming monitors. They have many of the same features, but the LG has an overclock feature to increase the refresh rate to 160Hz. The main advantage of the LG is that it has better motion handling, while the Dell is better if you want to use it in a bright room because it has better reflection handling and higher SDR brightness.
