240Hz Alienware gaming monitors are up to $330 off and offer superb refresh rates
These high refresh rate panels are available in both 25 and 27-inch variants.
Three high-refresh rates, low latency gaming monitors are up to $330 off at Dell for a limited time only.
For some PC gamers, it's less about dazzling high resolutions - such as 4K - and more about getting the frame rates up as high as they possibly can. That's the appeal of monitors like these - while none of them slouch on their visual clarity - the appeal comes from the fact that they only have a 1ms response time and 240Hz across the range.
That's not to say that a higher resolution (2K/1440p) isn't attainable, but for the speed of the panel, it can be more costly - as is evidenced below. If you're content to stick with Full HD when gaming, but demand beautiful colors with your frame advantage, then these monitors could be exactly what you're looking for.
