Cyber Monday is over, but that doesn't mean there aren't any great deals on gaming monitors for your perusal. In fact there are lots of them, and we'll be keeping track of them on our regular cheap gaming monitor deals page.

We're winding the page you're on now down for the season, but we keep the one above updated with all the best gaming monitor deals running all year round, so it's the best place to go to find the latest bargains on all things screen. Here's another, even clearer link to make sure you get to the best deals:

There are already some fantastic deals out there on gaming monitors, at both ends of the market. One of the best is the 32-inch 4K OLED for an unprecedented $700 and at the budget end you can pick up a genuine 34-inch LG Ultrawide for just $240. I'd think these will stick around throughout Cyber Week, and it would be even more pleasing to see them being topped, too. But that might be a touch too ambitious.

Still, 1440p remains the sweet-spot for those of you looking for the best bang for your buck and we've seen a steady march of excellent contenders released in the last year, so expect to see some good discounts particularly for models with a larger panel size. 1080p stays as the budget choice, but given the influx of high refresh rate screens its safe to say this resolution is sticking around as the competitive choice for a while yet. And for those of you on a higher budget with a high-end GPU to match, make sure to keep an eye out for 4K models at surprising prices.

What does 'price watch' mean?

We've added a new "price watch" qualifier to all our individual deals, making it easy to see whether a price has gone up 🔼 or down 🔽 since we last checked it out. It's important to note that any deal in this guide (even if it's slightly risen in price) is still one of our top picks, as we only show you deals that are actually worth buying.

Five things I always tell people before they buy their first gaming monitor

Cyber Monday gaming monitor deals - 1080p

Ok, so it's pretty small, and a VA panel. But honestly, for this money and from a well-known and trusted manufacturer, with AMD FreeSync and a 100 Hz refresh rate? A pretty good deal if you ask us. This would make an excellent second monitor, or a pretty quick main monitor in a pinch if you're building on a very tight budget.

Why do monitor model names need to be so confusing? It's an eternal mystery. But if you can decode this Acer, you'll find it's a cracking deal. A 165 Hz gaming monitor for just $99.99. Yes, it's VA, but at this price point, something's gotta give.

Price check: Newegg $140

Price watch: Acer Nitro XZ270 | 27-inch | 1080p | 240 Hz | VA | Curved | $199.93 $153.78 at Amazon (save $46.15)

Acer Nitro XZ270 | 27-inch | 1080p | 240 Hz | VA | Curved | $199.93 $153.78 at Amazon (save $46.15)
If you're desperate for a super-high refresh rate on a budget, then this Acer Nitro screen should fit the bill. It's not very bright, rated at just 250 nits, but it's a good size, is a VA panel and sports a full 240 Hz refresh rate for a rather tasty price tag.

1440p

Price watch: ➖Acer KA272U | 27-inch | 1440p | 100 Hz | IPS | $199.99 $139.99 at Best Buy (save $60)

$199.99 $139.99 at Best Buy (save $60)
If you're on the tightest of budgets, this will get you a decently sized 1440p monitor for a real bargain price. It's even got a higher-than-60 Hz refresh rate. Okay, 100 Hz isn't spectacular, but it is still notably smoother than 60 Hz. It's also not the brightest screen, rated at 250 nits peak, but the compromises will have to come in somewhere.

This is one of the best deals on a 1440p gaming monitor we've seen so far. A respectable brand and a respectable spec, although it might be worth holding out for an IPS panel. Still, a good price on a great little screen.

Price check: Amazon $184.10

Acer Nitro XV271U M3bmiiprx | 27-inch | 1440p | 180 Hz | IPS | $289.99 $169.99 at Amazon (save $120)
This Acer monitor is a steal for all you prospective competitive gamers, hitting a high refresh rate and low response time sweet spot (0.5-1 ms gray-to-gray). It's the same price as the Odyssey G5 below but is better for those of you who prefer an IPS panel to a VA.

Price check: Newegg $254

This monitor was already a great deal at its previous price. Now, for well under $200 it's a steal. Samsung has form when it comes to getting VA panels to achieve good response. Put simply, Samsung VA panels are the quickest.

Price watch: Acer Nitro XZ271U X3bmiiphx | 27-inch | 1440p | 240 Hz | IPS | Curved | $276.89 at Amazon

Price watch: 🔼
Acer Nitro XZ271U X3bmiiphx | 27-inch | 1440p | 240 Hz | IPS | Curved | $276.89 at Amazon
OK, these Acer monitor names are a bad joke. But bear with us, because this screen has loads to offer. The main attraction is a 240 Hz 1440p panel with 1 ms response times. That's pretty much the ideal real-world 16:9 gaming solution. Just take great care with what you're ordering and those model names!

Monitor start up Dough, formerly Eve, has had a bumpy inception. But as you're buying from Amazon, you probably don't have to worry if it will actually turn up. The Spectrum One is a very nice looking display and also now miles cheaper than it used to be, just note that you don't get the stand for this price. You'll need to add another $100 for that.

Here's a monitor we really rate from our Gigabyte M28U review. We actually loved this package for its blend of speed and resolution, even at its original $650 price tag. At this tantalizingly cheap price, it's that much better.

Black, pink or blue. Oddly, you can choose from those three chassis colors with this monitor. But the real appeal is a 32-inch 144Hz IPS panel for less. Oh and if you're wondering about the Pixio brand, we reviewed a 27-inch model last year and found it to be distinctly decent.

Price check: Amazon $499.99

This is a fully gorgeous IPS panel and is dearer for it. That being said, it's an LG display, and that's a pretty reliable indication of a great monitor, especially with a healthy discount. With G-Sync and FreeSync support, you will always net smooth frames on this UltraGear—providing your GPU is up to the task. We're big fans of LG monitors, and this is a good 'un.

Here's our pick for the best budget 4K gaming monitor, but now it's even cheaper. That's a deal we can't pass up. It's a gloriously simple panel with a no-frills look paired with a speedy refresh of up to 144 Hz and a handy USB hub. Our Jacob uses this panel daily, and he's had no complaints with it so far.

Do you need the Ark? Probably not, but damned if it isn't at least worth a look nonetheless. This screen offers something few others do, probably for good reason. It's absolutely massive, curved out the wazoo, ready for HDR to the extreme, built with Mini LED tech, and runs at 165 Hz. It's something different, and that's why it bears mentioning that it's pretty much always on sale.

$237.59 at Amazon
At its current price, this LG ultrawide is a genuine bargain. By comparison, Alienware's fancy QD-OLED 34-inch panel is around $800 even on sale. This LG matches its size, resolution, aspect ratio and refresh rate for less than one-third of the price, although of course, it is a VA panel, not an OLED. It's also not the brightest gaming monitor ever, but it is a very good deal.

Yes, this is the Acer Nitro EDA343CUR V3bmiippx, not the Acer Nitro EDA343CUR Hbmiippx. Totally ridiculous naming, but the V3bmiippx as opposed to Hbmiippx indicates 180 Hz as opposed to 100 Hz. And that's a lot of Hz on a 34-inch ultrawide for well under $300.

34-inch ultrawide 1440p gaming remains one of our firm favourites. It's a great compromise between lots of detail and decent frame rates. This Samsung panel gives you all that with 3,440 by 1,440 pixels, 165 Hz refresh and 1 ms response. It's not the brightest at 250 nits. But if you can live with that, it's an awful lot of monitor for the money.

Gigabyte makes some of our favorite gaming monitors, and as ultrawides go, this one's a bit of a peach. That IPS panel is plenty fast with a 144 Hz refresh rate, and it's got plenty of ports for all sorts of connection possibilities. A 400 nits brightness rating is pretty great for this sort of price, too.

Of all the big and wide Samsung monitors on this page, this is the biggest and the widest. It's still a huge amount of cash (and personally, I'd have to buy a whole new desk for this wideboi) but it's also over $100 more everywhere else I've seen it.

OLED gaming still isn't as affordable as we'd like. But it's getting there. This 34-inch ultrawide QD-OLED beast is still a good deal at this price, however. The 175 Hz refresh is a tiny bit pedestrian, but it's plenty fast enough for us and in all other regards, this is the full OLED experience, including 0.03 ms response and serious HDR sizzle.

With a 175 Hz refresh rate, this 34-inch curved ultrawide OLED monitor has AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and it's buttery smooth, thanks to that impressive 0.03 ms response time. With True Black 400 HDR, the panel looks fantastic, and the built-in Gaming Hub makes for a much snappier gaming experience.

It's not been around for long but the Aorus CO49DQ already has a decent discount, and it's a lot of monitor for the money as we found in our review. Those rocking the RTX 4090 might be better off with the higher refresh rate of the Samsung Odyssey G9 G93SC, but the rest of us can take advantage of this very wide, very pretty looking panel for a bit less.

All evidence points to this being a computer monitor, but let's be real: This is a surfboard that can display moving pictures. An extremely nice surfboard, to be sure: You're getting just about every bell and whistle you could want in an ultra-ultrawide monitor at the steepest discount we've seen.

There was just one thing obviously wrong with this stunning 32-inch 4K monitor when we reviewed it. The price. At $1,400 it was just so expensive. But now it's been trimmed by a full $300+, it's much more competitive. OK, it's still not exactly affordable. But this is one of the best 32-inch 4K gaming OLEDs available right now.

It's pretty wild what you can get these days for a relatively small sum of money. This is a 27-inch monitor for roughly the same price as some smaller 24-inch panels, and it still rocks an IPS display, 1ms response time, and a 165 Hz refresh rate. Fantastic for gaming on a budget.

It's not big, and it certainly isn't from a name we normally associate with gaming monitors, but if space is at a premium and you just want a good, little 1080p display for your desk, this 24-incher has a lot going for it. For a start, it's a fast IPS panel, so you get good colours and a 0.5 ms response time, and it will deliver a 144 Hz refresh rate, too.

Besides this monitor's significant bezels, there's a lot to like here. It's a bit old-fashioned looking, but all the important specs are here: 1440p, 165 Hz, FreeSync compatible. It's in a sweet spot for gaming and it's made by a manufacturer we trust with budget screens.

It might only be a VA panel, but this AOC display still has some excellent specs for the cash. That 180 Hz refresh rate is great for the cash, and at 32-inches, it's a great size for eyeball-sizzling visuals without being overwhelming. AOC make some great budget gaming monitors, and this one's very difficult to argue with at this price.

LG make some of our favourite gaming monitors, and this 4K IPS panel is part of its UltraGear line, of which we are very much fans. The 144 Hz refresh rate might not be the fastest, but its still plenty speedy for most, and otherwise this panel has near-flawless specs for the cash. Okay, it's not an OLED, but that's some serious extra cash to spend.

Is it a gaming monitor, or a surfboard? These giant Samsung displays are rather brilliant, what their gigantic size, super-fast refresh rates, and great connectivity.

When is Cyber Monday 2024?

Cyber monday officially begins on December 2, 2024. But somebody needs to tell Amazon that because the Bezos bunch has already started listing Cyber Monday Amazon deals.

I suppose it's all semantics, anyway. We've had Black Friday deals running all all week in the lead-up to the Friday, and many of these very same deals simply roll over into Cyber Monday and Cyber Week. Which means there's still time to snag up that monitor you couldn't decide on last week.

Will prices drop any lower?

Of course, there's always the possibility that gaming monitor prices could drop lower, or new fantastic deals might pop up, but for the most part we're expecting things to stay roughly the same.

At any rate, we take lots of things into consideration when listing deals on this page. We'll only recommend it if we think it's well worth a purchase at its current sale price and if we reckon it won't go for much lower—though we're happy to be proved wrong on that front.

Editor-in-Chief, Hardware

Dave has been gaming since the days of Zaxxon and Lady Bug on the Colecovision, and code books for the Commodore Vic 20 (Death Race 2000!). He built his first gaming PC at the tender age of 16, and finally finished bug-fixing the Cyrix-based system around a year later. When he dropped it out of the window. He first started writing for Official PlayStation Magazine and Xbox World many decades ago, then moved onto PC Format full-time, then PC Gamer, TechRadar, and T3 among others. Now he's back, writing about the nightmarish graphics card market, CPUs with more cores than sense, gaming laptops hotter than the sun, and SSDs more capacious than a Cybertruck.
