G Major - Preferred fingers???

So I'm reasonably comfortable with A, D and E major chords (open) and can switch between them fairly accurately playing straight 4's at about 120bpm.

I'm going to start practicing C and G to add them to my repertoire but would like a bit of advice as to what would be the most beneficial finger formation to use for G Major. Should I go with 1-2-3 or 2-3-4?

1-2-3 will be easier for me to hit accurately sooner but it looks awkward to switch to and from that formation.

2-3-4 is harder for me to hit (little finger trouble) but may result in easier, smoother changes to and from once I've got it nailed???

Which way do you play G? What should I do for the best???

Thanks
Ali
