Our Verdict
LG 32GP850-B/32GP83B-B
Gigabyte M32Q
The Gigabyte M32Q and the LG 32GP850-B/32GP83B-B are very similar 32-inch, 1440p gaming monitors, with only a few minor differences. The Gigabyte has a slightly better stand, and it has a unique KVM feature that allows you to work with two sources at once with a single keyboard and mouse, so it's the better choice for productivity.
