It kinda depends, how lit is your room when you game? Cause IPS (KTC/KOORUI) will show way more blooming, which you will perceive even more the darker the room is. The downside of the AOC will be a little black smearing, dont know if you ever owned a VA but it can look something like this - MAG 274Q

I really liked the Xiaomi, the Local Dimming does a great job. Of course there will be some blooming here and there but it never was too bad, seen worse on other models. Kinda same specs but VA would be the KTC M27T6, maybe that is also available in your region. edit: picture of the Xiaomi

It really depends... Personally i always miss brightness when i switch to OLED, although the new tandem OLEDs did a better job. Motion clarity/input lag tho the OLEDs will take the lead. Contrast the OLEDs will also win cause they look perfect in every condition, but if you dont game in a fully dark

KTC M27T6 is a 1440p VA Mini-LED I think Monitors Unboxed did a review on. I have the M27P6 (4k IPS version) and have loved it so far. https://us.ktcplay.com/products/27-inch-180hz-hdr1400-miniled-gaming-monitor

Yeah miniled is worth the upgrade. Go for either the KTC or the Xiaomi. The KTC uses an HVA panel and the Xiaomi uses an IPS panel. To summarize the difference, the KTC will have significantly better contrast (meaning deeper blacks) than the Xiaomi, but will have worse pixel response times. The Xiao

los paneles mini led suelen ser un poco mejores en ese aspecto, como el KTC M27T6

Look for the KTC M27T6, it's the one I'm using, under $300 and with Full Array Local Dimming HDR1400. There's also some AOC models, the Q27G4XMN/ZMN and the older Q27G3XMN. All of those offer a real HDR experience.

Yes, the M27T6 from KTC for example, kinda the same as the AOC but with 3 times the dimming zones and can be had for <300 sometimes.

MSI E16M is the worst of all, TCL 27R94 have bad LD algorIthm, the old 27R83U is better, AOC have EOTF problem till now, KTC M27P6 blooming, the only good regulated under 400EUR from all that I have see and test is the underrated KTC M27T6, I say underrated because is 1440p and usually everybody spe

IPS vs VA, the VA will always win in contrast even tho the Xiaomi has 3 times the dimming zones. A new competitor to the AOC is the KTC M27T6, same specs roughly but triple the zones which allows for finer dimming and slightly more contrast. If you live in the US you could also buy the successor to
