32UN500 vs 32UL500, not sure if one is better than the other, but you can see spec differences here:

From what I can tell, this is the best 4k 60 monitor you can get at any price unless you absolutely need IPS viewing angles or need a smaller screen. This VA panel has far better blacks and color coverage.
For gaming, get something that handles higher refresh rates. These VA panels have mediocre response times that will look a bit blurry for games, so a 120hz or higher panel will compensate for that. Freesync or Gsync are a must.

I have an IPS 27" 4k (dells s2720qs i think). It is very good. I use no scaling though so text is a bit small. I think most people scale on 27" but i really hate scaling so thats a no for me.
Anyways i need another 4k monitor for a dual setup. I can either match this one and get another 27" IPS 4K. Or get 32" 4K VA (the IPS ones are too expensive on 32"). Hard to decide which one…32" might be a bit easier on the eyes but less sharper. So not sure how to make this decision haha.

That Dell is a great work monitor. The LG 500-w really needs to be calibrated to meet its potential. The Dell is better out of the box. The Dell has far better viewing angles, but I've been doing work on these LG monitors for several days and the viewing angles don't bother me. It's a hard to notice tone shift at the edges of the screen. I like the extra color gamut coverage and volume from the LG. It's sufficiently bright in my room, but the Dell will help you if you're working in the sunlight a bit. The LG has better black levels and contrast, but those aren't necessarily important depending on your work.
I have to scale text on any 4K monitor. Right now I am at 200%. I just scale the text in my applications back down a bit to compensate for it.
I recommend getting a spiderX calibrator for all your monitors. The LG will benefit from it a lot. The dells are usually calibrated a bit better in the factory, but still have a lot of potential to benefit from a calibration.
