Monitor 1: 27", 120Hz, OLED, 1440p, Not curved, 0ms response time
Monitor 2: 32", 165Hz, LED, 1440p, Curved 1500R, 1ms response time
Price is relatively the same.
I think the deciding factor here is whether OLED is better? From what I've heard OLED monitors are really good but also really expensive, however I have found this OLED monitor for quite cheap.

As far as I know the only downside to an OLED is their reduced lifetime. Given how long I spend with my PC on that would put me off them. But that's a personal choice.

Then perhaps the LED would be the better option here. I'm going to be using the monitor as gaming for the next few months until I get my laptop, then it'll be a mixture of gaming and casual use. I think I'll be using the screen around 4/5 hours daily.

On another note, (based on these statistics - +144Hz, <£400, <10ms response time, 32") does this seem like the best 1440p monitor out there? I've done quite a lot of research today and the top 3 are (in order),
ASUS TUF Gaming VG32VQ1B,
Samsung Odyssey LC32G55TQWUXEN,
Lenovo G32qc-10.
Their stats (in order),
£320, 32", 165Hz, 1500R Curvature, 1ms response time, Freesync premium
£350, 32", 144Hz, 1000R Curvature, 1ms response time, Freesync premium
£300, 32", 144Hz, 1500R Curvature, 4ms response time, Freesync

Is Freesync important? I'll be using the monitor for PS4 gaming for a few months and next year when the RTX 3070 gets into laptops I'll be using that laptop. I think I might get the Samsung over the Asus because of the 1000R curvature but I'm not sure.
