These Prime Day gaming monitor deals are making OLEDs almost affordable for the very first time
OLED technology took its sweet time making the jump from TVs to PC monitors. The only snag is that the best OLED gaming monitors seem to be taking just as long to become affordable.
The good news is that this year's Prime Day deals have taken a big step in that direction. Are they actually cheap? Not exactly, but you're looking at savings upwards of $1,000 and prices that are certainly more accessible than when OLED monitors all had four-figure price tags.
LG UltraGear OLED | 27-inch | 1440p | 240 Hz | G-Sync Compatible | $999.99$599.99 at Newegg (save $400)
Err, how much for a 1440p panel?! Still, this is an OLED unit, and about as cheap as the tech currently comes, as the price has seriously tumbled on this LG model. They make for seriously gorgeous screens. Admittedly this one is a little dim overall (as we found in our LG UltraGear 27GR95QE-B review) but it's still absolutely stunning in a shady spot.

Alienware 34 AW3423DWF OLED | 34-inch | 3440 x 1440 | 165 Hz $699.99 at Dell
This is the lowest price yet for Alienware's segment defining OLED monitor. Sure, it's still a lot of money and this is now quite an old model. But, in truth, Samsung's QD-OLED panel tech hasn't moved on much since this first-gen model was released. In short, this glossy-panelled beauty is still a scorcher.

Gigabyte Aorus CO49DQ | 49-inch | 144 Hz | 5120 x 1440 | OLED | $1,099.99$899.99 at Amazon (save $200)
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.
Price check: Newegg $899.99
Samsung Odyssey G9 G93SC OLED | 49-inch | 240 Hz | 5120 x 1440 | OLED | $1,599.99 $979.99 at Amazon (Prime Exclusive, save $620)
