Our Verdict
LG 27GS95QE-B
ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG27AQDP
The ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG27AQDP and the LG 27GS95QE-B are 1440p OLED gaming monitors. The main difference between the two is that the ASUS has a higher refresh rate, so it's the better choice if you need something for competitive gaming. The ASUS is also the better choice if you plan on using your monitor in a well-lit room, as it gets brighter. That said, the LG is the better choice for playing games at 60Hz due to its lower input lag.
