Response? That's still very vague to me. As I pointed out early, the professional reviews have the Aorus with lower input lag. I'm not sure if this is affected by settings or using HDR. Can you use a non-HDR picture mode and compare the 'response'?
I confirmed my own suspicions--the Aorus is definitely faster. Went out and bought a refurbished CX from Microcenter for $999 because I couldn't keep the Aorus without satisfying my curiosity. It's an amazing TV but I'm not sure it's a better computer monitor. I absolutely love the picture quality but the input lag is just a touch higher. Combined with the lower refresh rate and brightness, Destiny 2 just didn't feel as responsive playing competitive.
Overall, I think you would be crazy to go with anything else if you mostly play story based games though. Will have to do a lot more testing in order to make a decision though. Boy, is tech fun in 2021. Too many good options! It's a nice problem to have.
Update: Ok, so one significant disadvantage of the OLED compared to the Aorus is that only in game mode (even when in PC mode) can you get the lowest input lag. That means if you're wanting a different image (game mode is somewhat dim compared to the more hyped, colorful modes) than you can't have it with the lowest input lag.
