I'm planning to get a new monitor since my old monitor cut in half (dead pixels or something idk) , and I got my eyes on these two cuz they are affordable and available at the local stores so no need to order from amazon, etc. I need to know which monitor is the best for gaming with a few documents reviews etc.

Thank You.

My Pc Spec:
1-Motherboard: Asus Rog Strix X470-F
2-CPU: AMD Ryzen 2700x 3.7Ghz
3-CPU Cooler: NZXT Kraken x52 Aio Liquid Cooler
4-GPU: Gigabyte Nvidia RTX 2060 6GB OC Windforce Dual Fan

I presume this is for 'general' computer work such as Games and such, not for actual Professional photographic processing and such... In either case I'd go with the 32" - Optix MAG321CQR. More space is GREAT! I only mention it cause they seem to be virtually the same except for the "True colors" in the overview. 32"=DCI-P3 90% & sRGB 122% where as the 27" = True colors - DCI-P3 90% & sRGB 115%. HERE'S an article on Redit about that. OH! You'll want to use DisplayPort for for the 32" but if you get the 27" then go with HDMI. Both only support HDMI 2.0 (18GB/sec) BUT: MAG321CQR supports DisplayPort 1.2 (21.6GB/sec) whereas the MAG271CQR only supports "DP" and is possibly only 1.0 since it's not specified. Reasoning is because HDMI 2.0 (18GB/sec) is faster than DP (presuming 1.0) at 10.8GB/sec.
