We've already seen some wild discounts on great displays that have already sold out, which goes to show that people are rushing to upgrade just in time for games like Cyberpunk 2077, or maybe they've figured out how to buy an Nvidia RTX 3080 graphics card. In any case, we will be adding all the best deals that pop up throughout the day and the rest of the week.
If you're paralyzed by indecision, don't worry. It happens. Use our best gaming monitors to figure out what 'must-have' features you actually should consider. The fact that you'll probably spend the next few years looking at whatever gaming monitor you're going to buy, it's key to make sure you've allocated a decent budget to get the perfect monitor to complement your gaming rig.
And a good gaming display will outlast your current PC, and potentially another upgrade or two after that. We've had fantastic screens last up to a decade of top quality gaming.
Right now, we're going to say the best option for a new screen is going to be a quality 144Hz panel with a 1440p native resolution. IPS or VA panel technologies are the ones we favor—they offer much better colors than TN screens, while still hitting high refresh rates.

Westinghouse UWQHD monitor | 34-inch | VA | 3440 x 1440 | $449.99 $329.99 at Newegg (save $120)
The more screen the better, especially when gaming. An ultrawide monitor like this one has its advantages, showing you more of the battle field at one time, its gentle curve wrapping around you so it's always in your peripheral vision. Feed it a fast framerate and hit its 1440p resolution, and you'll struggle to get a finer experience without hitting the price heights of 4K.View Deal
Samsung UJ590 | 32-inch | 4K |VA | $369.99 $269.99 at Best Buy (save $100)
Proof that a quality 4K experience from a big brand needn't cost the earth. It may only be 60Hz and lack HDR support, but then driving this panel well beyond 60Hz is pretty implausible, and many so-called HDR monitors are nothing of the sort.View Deal

The low input lag, great SDR colour gamut, and nice gray uniformity make this a very sweet panel, though there is no VRR (variable refresh) support through HDMI, unfortunately. Still, its a tasty ultra wide monitor that's worth your consideration. Just use the coupon code 'MKTC70BMAXGM' at the checkout for the full discount.View Deal

This 49-inch beast is comparable with the megabuck Samsung Odyssey G9 by most metrics, including DisplayHDR 1000 capability. It's not quite as tightly curved or as fast at 4ms rather than 1ms. But with 120Hz refresh and 1000 nits of brightness, it's still an absolute beauty.View Deal
Acer Predator XB271HU | 27-inch | 1440p | 165Hz | $599.99 $527 at Amazon (save $73)
The XB271 is a fantastic monitor. It uses the same panel as the Asus ROG PG279Q, our pick for best gaming monitor. Here it's about $50 below its usual Amazon price. There's no HDR, but we don't consider that as essential as resolution and refresh rate.View Deal

LG 29BN650-B | 29-inch | 1080p | $249.99 $239.99 at Newegg (save $100)
Although this one does come with FreeSync tech, there's something to be said about only having 75Hz refresh rate, along with a lowly 5ms response. Perhaps better suited for slower paced games, or even better utilised for productivity. Still, it's not the most baseline spec we've seen, and it does sport a nice, ultra-wide, anti-glare matte display, with very impressive colour accuracy, to boot.View Deal
AOC G2 Series C27G2 | 27-inch | 1080p | $279.99 $179.99 at Best Buy (save $100)

What to look out for in a Cyber Monday gaming monitor
When it comes to Cyber Monday gaming monitor deals the slack pace of progress in screen technology is a blessing. It means that a great five year-old display will still be a great gaming monitor today. So don't be put off if the panel you're looking at isn't necessarily a 2020 model.
The main thing to look out for, apart from the relative historical pricing (camelcamelcamel is your friend here) of the screen in question, is its native resolution. You want it to match up to your current and prospective graphics card. If you're going to be rocking a GPU that isn't capable of running games at 4K then you're wasting your money chasing that super-high UHD res.
Native resolution is also important when it comes to ultrawide screens too, and mostly because of that second number in the equation. A 3440 x 1440 display will be 1440 pixels high, and I'm going to say that's a minimum for ultrawides; anything lower is going too far down the letterbox route.
The next number is refresh rate. Simple 60Hz screens are no good no more. Even down at the budget end of the market you can usually bank on at least a 75Hz refresh in a cheap IPS display. And, trust me, you can tell the difference even with that small a difference. Pump things up to 120Hz, 144Hz, or even 240Hz and you will definitely be able to tell.
It may sound like heresy, but it doesn't matter if your GPU cannot deliver a solid 120fps on average, a 120Hz refresh will look great no matter what you're doing with your new gaming monitor.
Then it's all about panel technology. Personally I love an IPS screen, they deliver the best color accuracy but can suffer from slower response times and weak black levels, while a VA display isn't quite as solid on color, but is quicker to respond. Only the esports pros who care nothing for visual fidelity should consider a TN panel with its weak image quality but penchant for lightning fast refresh rates and response.
If you're planning to upgrade your machine to house one of Nvidia's new Ampere graphics cards, such as the RTX 3080 or RTX 3090, having one of the best G-Sync monitors is necessary to make the best of these high-powered cards. G-Sync being Nvidia's adaptive sync technology, a feature that reduces screen tearing, and display stutter, by syncing your refresh rate to that of your GPU.
Alternatively, the best G-Sync Compatible FreeSync monitors are out there, and they're certified by Nvidia to work with G-Sync. Although they are not the best quality monitors out there, usually you can find them cheaper. They also support AMD's FreeSync technology, if you're looking to buy a new AMD 6000-series GPU when they become available.
