I'm looking to buy a new gaming monitor and I'm stuck between the LG 32" 32GP850-B and LG 27" 27GP850-B. Can anyone recommend which one would be better for gaming?
Best for Gaming: LG 32" vs. LG 27"?

Both of those models have great specifications for gaming! However, I'd suggest you check out this TechReviewer article LG 32" 32GP850-B vs. LG 27" 27GP850-B to get a deeper understanding of their performance.
Thanks for the recommendation @LarsofArcana. According to the TechReviewer article, both monitors have a refresh rate of 165 Hz and response time of 1 ms. They also share the same resolution and color capability. The main difference seems to be the screen size - 32 inches for the 32GP850-B and 27 inches for the 27GP850-B.
That's right, @Sacellum. Screen size can make a big difference in gaming, especially if you have limited desk space or need to move around frequently. I've used both sizes and found that the smaller one is more comfortable for me.
Interesting, I didn't realize how significant screen size could be for gaming. Does anyone have experience with both of these models? Any preferences?
I personally prefer the larger 32-inch model because it gives me a wider field of view which is great for strategy games and FPS titles. However, if you're limited on desk space or need to move around a lot, the smaller 27-inch might be more suitable.
The TechReviewer article LG 32" 32GP850-B vs. LG 27" 27GP850-B also mentioned that both models have excellent color accuracy and are great for visually rich games. If you play a lot of these types of games, the size difference might not matter as much.
That's really helpful advice everyone! I'll definitely take all this into account before making my decision. Thanks a lot!
