Keeping track of the best UK/US sales on fine gaming displays
Gaming monitors are great, but if we’re being realistic, they can very easily become one of the priciest building blocks in your entire PC gaming setup. If you are currently screen shopping, then, your best course of action is probably to take advantage of the currentCyber Mondaygaming monitor deals.
My curated picks are all below, and as always, I’m only recommending sufficientlygoodhardware that’s available on a meaningful discount. A couple of our best gaming monitor members are even in here, though it’s a broad church overall, with 1080p, 1440p, and 4K screens making the cut alongside the occasional ultrawide model. We’re looking for gaming credentials specifically, too, so heightened refresh rates and support for variable sync tech (likeFreeSync and G-Sync) are important.
You should also make sure to match your monitor choice to your PC’s performance capabilities, such as by ensuring that you have enoughgraphics cardmuscle to handle a higher refresh rate or the more demanding pixel density of 1440p and 4K. Upcalers like AMD FSR, Intel XeSS andNvidia DLSScan help on both counts.
That’s about it for housekeeping. Read on for the full list, and feel free to peruse our mainCyber Monday PC dealshub for many more highlights of the day’s hardware offers.
Cyber Monday gaming monitor deals
Here’s one of the best budget monitors dramatically discounted if you use the code:BFUKG2722HS. This makes it much cheaper than many other 1080p monitors of the same ilk, while hitting a much higher 165Hz refresh rate too. A no-brainer, really.
Another 1080p monitor that’s well priced despite a wide selection of features: An adjustable stand and 4-port USB hub cover comfort and connectivity, while the 144Hz refresh rate and dual FreeSync/G-Sync compatibility ensure it’s fully kitted for games.
Be fast if you want to grab this 1440p/165Hz monitor - which, to be clear, performs great and looks swish - before it’s sold out. There are only five units left, according to NZXT’s site, so the 30% discount offer must be popular.
A 4K, 144Hz IPS monitor with FreeSync and G-Sync compatibility, all for under £400? It sounds too good to be true, but I own one of these myself, and its gaming performance is the real deal.
ROG monitors could usually do with a discount, bless ‘em, and this is pretty good deal on the 4K/144Hz ROG Strix XG27UQR. It’s a premium display through and through, with particularly fast response times by IPS standards.
Another fine ultrawide deal. Unlike a lot of curved gaming monitors, the 34GP950G-B uses a vibrant IPS panel instead of VA, and it’s Logitech’s excellent Nano IPS, no less. Expect strong colours and minimal response times.
The 27GQ50F-B opts for a cost-saving VA panel, not one of the “Nano IPS” panels more common to the UltraGear range. Oh well – you’re still getting a speedy 165Hz refresh rate and AMD FreeSync, so smooth PC play remains firmly in its grasp.
If you do demand the extra boldness of IPS, mayhaps try the VG279Q1A. It’s just as fast as the LG 27GQ50F-B, matches it on screen size and 1080p resolution, and costs the same. For now.
240Hz monitors usually come at a premium, so Cyber Monday is a good time to pick up one of these ultra-fast displays for less. The 1080p Odyssey G40B is cheap but also not too cramped, at 27in diagonally.
A full-blooded UltraGear monitor with Nano IPS, the 27GP83B-B improves on the old 27GL83A-B design. That was also a great gaming display, but the 27GP83B-B updates with a higher 165Hz refresh rate, faster response time, and better HDR performance.
This 144Hz ultrawide monitor even cheaper now costs $40 less than it did on Black Friday. You might see some mild ghosting from its curved VA panel, but expect high contrast - and acres of screen space - as the upside.
A straightforward, yet colourful and responsive, 4K/144Hz monitor with G-Sync and Freesync. The similar LG 27GN950-B is also on sale, but the 27GP950-B manages better HDR performance.
Ultrawides don’t get much more ultrawide than Samsung’s sprawling, 49in, 5120x1440 slab of Mini LED outrageousness. It’s a luxury for sure, albeit less of one at $800 off.
