    I'm stupid. Didn't read the title.

    I'd lean towards the Dell if you are like me and happy with 60hz gaming and 8ms response time isn't going bother you as long as you have slightly more real estate. But that is just me for several reasons right now that I won't bore you with and are not technical but situational. If you want a high refresh rate monitor go with the M32. The KVM is seem to be perfectly fine to many users (some evening citing your use case) and all you are loosing is 80 plxels.

    Us 16:10 users are dying breed and will probably have to accept it at some point. When that day comes I'm getting a dual screen setup and one will be horizontal. But that's for another day.

    Of those, I'd go with the Gigabyte since it's 160Hz vs the Dell's 60Hz.

    Once you go high-refresh rate, you'll never go back!

    Though the Dell is 16:10 so, purely for work, it's "better" (more screen real estate).
