Comparing the screens of the Asus G771JW and XMG 705, which one do you think would be better for photo editing? The Asus G771JW has better black level and contrast, but the Delta-E values are worse. Are the black level and contrast or the Delta-E value more important? Is the black level=0.47 cd/m² of the XMG 705 too high and the contrast of 700:1 too low or would they be ok?

 

Asus G771JW:

Maximum: 344 cd/m²

Average: 333.4 cd/m²

Brightness Distribution: 92 %

Center on Battery: 343 cd/m²

Black: 0.38 cd/m²

Contrast: 903:1
