If you've wanted to commit to the leap up to a 4K gaming monitor then Amazon might just have you covered right now - and you won't have to spend an enormous amount. In fact, you can pay a lowest ever price or one quite close to a record low with the two screens we've highlighted today.
If you're after something with a lot of gaming bells and whistles on your 4K gaming monitor, the Acer Nitro XV282K should be at the top of your list. This perfect PC or console monitor is now down to $549.99 at Amazon. While Amazon lists an MSRP of $699.99 here, meaning the discount is 'only' $150, Acer itself still regards this as a $900 monitor, and Amazon was selling this monitor for that amount as recently as yesterday. This represents excellent value for a display that can push out 4K pictures at up to 144Hz, and give you the HDMI 2.1 connectivity to get the most out of a PS5 or Xbox Series X.
As always, there are options if this is still too much for you. And we're pleased to highlight one of our favourite cheap 4K monitors once again as an alternative to the above Acer panel. The BenQ EL2870U is just $249.99 at Amazon (was $299.99). It has been at this price for a while, admittedly, but this is still a $300 monitor and it has also only ever been lower than this price once - during Black Friday last year, and only by $10. This panel punches well above its weight and if you're happy with making a few compromises (sticking to 60Hz being the biggest one) then this is a great budget 4K gaming monitor.
Both of these screens are great candidates for anyone looking for the best gaming monitor for their budget, especially when looking to maximize the resolution and go for a top 4K monitors for gaming.
