Our top gaming monitor recommendation is on sale at Best Buy in the US today, where the Dell S2721DGF is retailing for $299 after a $150 discount. That’s a great price for a 1440p 165Hz monitor of any description, but especially one that uses LG’s advanced Fast IPS panels and is FreeSync/G-Sync Compatible.
We’ve been recommending Fast IPS panels for a little while, because they combine the motion handling of TN screens with the colours and viewing angles of IPS. It really is the best of both worlds, as you get a monitor that is as great for watching videos or browsing the web as it is for gaming in a wide range of genres.
1440p gaming is the current sweet spot on PC, requiring much less graphical horsepower than 4K gaming while also unlocking access to high frame-rate gaming. With a mid-range PC, you can play AAA games at full resolution to benefit from the increased detail of 1440p over 1080p, while esports titles will run in the hundreds of fps to really take advantage of this monitor’s low input lag, fast pixel response times and high refresh rate. Of course, with a high-end PC, you’ll be able to max out the monitor and get a better-looking and better-feeling experience than your standard 1080p 60Hz screen.
