Cyber Monday gaming monitor deals
Cyber Monday gaming monitor deals

Cyber Monday is winding down, but there are still plenty of gaming monitors still on sale as the deals weekend comes to an end. Some of them are even fairly fresh: There are retailers who will hold back products specifically so they can resurrect deals that might have gone off the boil on Black Friday proper. So, rest assured there'll be new gaming monitor deals popping up even now that Black Friday weekend has given way to Cyber Monday week.

The good news is that we're already seeing high refresh rate gaming screens discounted down to impressive levels, and we're not talking about doddy TN panels either. And if you want a quick rundown of what to look for in a Black Friday gaming monitor deal, we've got you covered.

The long and short of it, however, is that we're recommending aiming for a 1440p panel with at least a 144Hz refresh rate as the best gaming monitor target. Though, if you're not sure your GPU can cope at that res there are still some excellent 1080p screens around with high refresh rates and low prices.

Below is a constantly curated list of the best gaming monitor deals we've spotted over Black Friday as we head on towards Cyber Monday and beyond. And when we're not at it, our sleepless deal bots are always scouting for us.

Cyber Monday gaming monitor deals in the US

Aorus FO48U | 48-inch | 4K | OLED | 120Hz | $1,499.99

Aorus FO48U | 48-inch | 4K | OLED | 120Hz | $1,499.99 $779.99 at Newegg (save $720)
If you're looking to go big, check out this Aorus 48-inch OLED 4K 120Hz gaming monitor. Now that a larger model has been announced, this one got another price cut. Indeed, it's been cut even further from $899. Plus it's an OLED, ie. a peak gaming monitor.

Viotek GFI24CBA  | 24-inch | 1080p | 144Hz | $107.99 at Newegg

Viotek GFI24CBA  | 24-inch | 1080p | 144Hz | $107.99 at Newegg
While this gaming monitor isn't technically a "deal" Viotek's panels have been getting decent reviews, and a touch over $100 for an IPS 144Hz 1080p screen is pretty sweet. At 24-inches across that might seem a little small given today's super-sized panels, but for an entry level gaming screen it's a bargain.

Acer PG241Y | 24-inch | 1080p | VA | 165Hz | $179.99

Acer PG241Y | 24-inch | 1080p | VA | 165Hz | $179.99 $119.99 at Amazon (save $60)
Normally retailing for around $150, this is the cheapest we've seen the Acer, and one of the cheapest high refresh rate gaming monitors you'll find this Cyber Monday. As an entry-level 1080p screen this is an excellent price.

MSI Optix G274CV | 27 inch | 1080p | 75Hz | AMD Freesync | Curved | $169.99

MSI Optix G274CV | 27 inch | 1080p | 75Hz | AMD Freesync | Curved | $169.99 $139.99 at Newegg (save $30) With a curved display, 1ms response time, and AMD Freesync technology, MSI's Optix G274CV is a solid all-around display at an entry-level price. 

Dell G2722HS | 27-inch | 1080p | IPS | 165Hz | $279.99

Dell G2722HS | 27-inch | 1080p | IPS | 165Hz | $279.99 $149.99 at Amazon (save $130)
I love a Dell panel, they pretty much always look fantastic out of the box, and this gaming focused screen ticks all the boxes. Most especially that combo of 1ms IPS and 165Hz refresh rate. Banging. It's also never been cheaper to bag this 27-inch 1080p gamer.

Dell S3222HG | 32-inch | 1080p | 165Hz | $299.99

Dell S3222HG | 32-inch | 1080p | 165Hz | $299.99 $199.99 at Amazon (save $100)
Here's an affordable curved gaming monitor that's attractive for more than its good value. It's got a high refresh rate of 165Hz, and at 32-inches it's nice and big too. At 1080p, it's hardly on the cutting edge, but if you've got an older GPU and haven't made the leap to 1440p or 4K gaming, then this might be the screen for you. 

Gigabyte G32QC | 32-inch | 1440p | 165Hz | $369.99

Gigabyte G32QC | 32-inch | 1440p | 165Hz | $369.99 $259.99 (save $110) at Newegg
I'm a big fan of Gigabyte's pared back approach to gaming monitors. Simple, speedy, and nice quality panels. I use two similar Gigabyte models myself at home.

Acer Nitro XZ342CK | 34-inch | 3440 x 1440 | VA | 144Hz | $499.99

Acer Nitro XZ342CK | 34-inch | 3440 x 1440 | VA | 144Hz | $499.99 $349.99 at Amazon (save $100)
4K gaming monitors aren't necessarily super expensive anymore, but the GPUs that will really allow you to game in 4K at acceptable frame rates still are. For our money, if you want something more expansive than a 1440p panel you need an ultrawide. This VA panel from Acer has the ultrawide 21:9 aspect ratio and a high refresh rate to boot. It's also never been cheaper than today. Note that to get the reduced price you'll need to use the "New from" link in the right-hand column, near the bottom of the first page.

Dell S3422DWG | 34-inch | 3440 x 1440 | VA | 144Hz | $499.99

Dell S3422DWG | 34-inch | 3440 x 1440 | VA | 144Hz | $499.99 $379.99 at Amazon (save $120)
Another quality ultrawide gaming monitor from Dell, it's a little pricier than the Acer, but it comes with less of a curve if that's an issue for you. The 1800R curve is a lot less aggressive and fits perfectly that 34-inch expanse. 

LG 32GP850-B | 32-inch | 1440p | IPS | 180Hz (OC) | $599.99

LG 32GP850-B | 32-inch | 1440p | IPS | 180Hz (OC) | $599.99 $396.99 at Amazon (save $203)
LG is the originator of the IPS panel technology and its 1ms response is about as fast as you're going to see this sort of screen get. And with a potential 180Hz overclock available on this big screen, 1440p display, the LG Ultragear has a lot to offer for the money, and it's only ever been cheaper than this once before.

Acer Nitro XV322QK | 32-inch | 4K | IPS | 144Hz | $1,099.99

Acer Nitro XV322QK | 32-inch | 4K | IPS | 144Hz | $1,099.99 $599.99 at Best Buy (save $500)
Obviously, $600 is still a lot of money, but the beauty of spending big on a gaming monitor is that it will likely still be a great screen long after you've moved on from your current gaming PC. And this big screen 4K IPS panel is no exception, with a 1ms response, and the all-important high 144Hz refresh rate. It's not a bargain, but it's a very good price for a big boi screen.

Acer XB271HU

Acer Predator XB271HU | 27-inch | 1440p | IPS | 165Hz (OC) | $469.99 $387 at Amazon (save $82.99)
This is an old monitor now, having launched in 2017, but it's still an outstanding full G-Sync IPS gaming monitor. It was cheaper over Black Friday, but it's still worth a look now as one of our faves.

Samsung Odyssey G5 | 34-inch | 1440p | VA | 165Hz | $549.99

Samsung Odyssey G5 | 34-inch | 1440p | VA | 165Hz | $549.99 $399.99 at Amazon (save $150)
Confusingly, there are at least two other G5 models. But we think this is the one you want. It's a 21:9, 34-inch ultra-wide bad boy with 165Hz refresh and 1ms response. It's not a fancy HDR model with a mini-LED backlight. But at this price point, that's pretty much a given.

Cyber Monday gaming TV deals in the US

Hisense ULED U6 Series | 50-inch | 4K | Quantum Dot | 60Hz | $529.99

Hisense ULED U6 Series | 50-inch | 4K | Quantum Dot | 60Hz | $529.99 $367.99 at Amazon (save $162)
This is one of the cheapest 4K TVs you can buy... that you actually might buy. At 50-inches that's a lot of 4K real estate, and the Quantum Dot filter on the screen delivers great colors, but it must be noted that if you're aiming to use this for gaming it's limited to a 60Hz refresh rate. Don't listen to the claims of a 240 Motion Rate. It's not the same as a 240Hz refresh.

Samsung Q60A QLED | 32-inch | 4K | QLED | 60Hz | $499.99

Samsung Q60A QLED | 32-inch | 4K | QLED | 60Hz | $499.99 $449.99 at Samsung (save $50)
This QLED TV makes for an excellent second screen for streaming and playing some games at 4K/60FPS. The picture quality also makes it a good TV for an office or bedroom. Yeah, it's a bummer it doesn't support 120Hz at 4K, but it's not too big of a loss if you don't have the hardware to reach those heights.  

LG B2 OLED (OLED55B2PUA) | 55-inch | 4K | OLED | 120Hz | $1,599.99

LG B2 OLED (OLED55B2PUA) | 55-inch | 4K | OLED | 120Hz | $1,599.99 $996.99 at Walmart (save $603)
A fantastic OLED offering for gamers, with deep blacks, HDMI 2.1, and all the VRR options you could handle. This one offers low input lag and is topped off with a nifty 120Hz refresh rate. Sure, there are higher refresh rate monitors but, a 55-inch gaming OLED TV sounds pretty great as a giant second monitor for that price.

LG C2 OLED (OLED42C2PUA) | 42-inch | 4K | OLED | 120Hz |  $1,596.99

LG C2 OLED (OLED42C2PUA) | 42-inch | 4K | OLED | 120Hz | $1,596.99 $996.99 at Walmart (save $503)
Only the best gaming TV on the planet with a $503 saving right now. Oof. Yeah, this is the real LG OLED deal, and at the 42-inch scale actually makes for an amazing gaming monitor. The HDMI 2.1 makes 4K at 120Hz a reality on PC, and the lightning-fast response of OLED panels makes it glorious for gaming. Yum.

LG C2 OLED (OLED48C2PUA) | 48-inch | 4K | OLED | 120Hz | $1,596.99

LG C2 OLED (OLED48C2PUA) | 48-inch | 4K | OLED | 120Hz | $1,596.99 $1,046.99 at Walmart (save $550)
Just a bigger version of the best gaming TV around, with a similarly chonky discount. And actually, that means you're getting a 48-inch for just another $50. I don't have to tell you about how lovely OLED screens are, but I'm going to anyways. The colors are stunning and the speed of motion and pixel response are outstanding. With HDMI 2.1 you can jam a PC into it and see 4K resolutions at 120Hz write large.

Cyber Monday gaming monitor deals in the UK

Asus TUF Gaming VG32VQ1BR | 32-inch | 1440p | VA | £389.99

Asus TUF Gaming VG32VQ1BR | 32-inch | 1440p | VA | £389.99 £258.98 at Scan (save £131.01)
For a 32-inch panel, this is a great offer. You're right in the sweet spot of 1440p and 165Hz with this monitor, and its 1ms response time means you'll feel all the benefits of its speedy screen. The one downside, if you can call it that, is that this is a VA panel, rather than an IPS. Though VAs can still hold their own, and offer great viewing angles.

LG Ultragear 34GP950 | 34-inch | 3440 x 1440p | IPS | 180Hz (OC) | £1,196.98

LG Ultragear 34GP950 | 34-inch | 3440 x 1440p | IPS | 180Hz (OC) | £1,196.98 £699.97 at Laptops Direct (save £497.01)
LG is the originator of the IPS panel technology and its 1ms response is about as fast as you're going to see this sort of screen get. And with a potential 180Hz overclock available on this beautifully curved monitor, the LG Ultragear has a lot to offer for the money, and it's only ever been cheaper than this once before.

Acer Predator XB253QGX

Acer Predator X35 | 35-inch | 3440 x 1440p | IPS | 180Hz | £2,083.99 £665.49 at Box (save £1,448)
Don't pay too much mind to the inflated 'was' price (it's down from more like £1,351.99), but do note this is one of our favourite gaming monitors ever. Not only do you get an extra-wide curved screen, but one that comes with a 180Hz refresh rate and G-Sync Ultra for smooth frames, too. And that's topped with a 2ms response time, and it even sports built-in speakers.

Cyber Monday gaming TV deals in the UK

Hisense 55U7HQTUK | 55-inch | 4K | ULED | 120Hz | £849

Hisense 55U7HQTUK | 55-inch | 4K | ULED | 120Hz | £849 £549 at Currys (save £300)
A gaming-ready 4K TV for under £600 isn't bad at all, especially at this size. This one comes with a 120Hz refresh for smooth gaming, some wide viewing angles, and HDR10+ for great colour. You even benefit from Game Mode Pro with FreeSync and ALLM (auto game mode).

Sony Bravia XR55A80JU | 55-inch | 4K | OLED | 120Hz | £1,399

Sony Bravia XR55A80JU | 55-inch | 4K | OLED | 120Hz | £1,399 £995 at Electric Shop (save £400)
4K 120Hz gaming is within reach here, and with a hefty discount to boot. There are even two HDMI ports that support it, so you can have a couple of things plugged in at once to switch between them easier. You get the benefit here of wide viewing angles, and OLED which means deep blacks. Of course, it's a smart TV, too. 

LG CS (OLED55CS6LA) | 55-inch | 4K | OLED | 120Hz | £1,499

LG CS (OLED55CS6LA) | 55-inch | 4K | OLED | 120Hz | £1,499 £939 at AO (save £560)
LG's CS is a slightly pared back version of its C2 model screen, yet it's not quite as pared back as the B2 (which it's usually cheaper/the same price as). It's kind of a sleeper model. It still supports a lot of what we want in a high-end OLED, however, with 120Hz refresh and VRR—no doubt it looks gorgeous in action. So if you want to save a little money on an OLED, the CS is the way to go.

There's something to be said about being able to sit on your couch with a wireless controller and playing your favorite computer games on a massive TV. Our deals bots are working overtime to find the best TV deals on the internet. 

When is Cyber Monday 2022?

Cyber Monday is set for November 28, 2022, trawling Black Friday like a lovesick puppy. The temptation is to look at Cyber Monday like the unwanted sibling of Black Friday, with just the dregs left on offer. But while it's still going to be tough to get the goods shipped ahead of Christmas, retailers will often have a stock of great deals set aside for Cyber Monday.

Cyber Monday also kicks off Cyber Week, where you may find a bunch of other deals on PC hardware to stretch out the sales season.
