This is one of the best deals on a 1440p [[link]] gaming monitor we've seen so far. A respectable brand and a respectable [[link]] spec, although it might be worth holding out for an IPS panel. Still, a good price on a great little screen.

Price check: Amazon $169.99

No Prime membership required. Nope. You don't have to feather Bezos' nest to get yourself a frankly bonkers deal on a 1440p screen. You don't even need to get cosy with Newegg+, just give 'em $150 and they'll give you a prime gaming monitor in exchange. 

This is the absolute cheapest 1440p gaming monitor I've seen, and it's not sporting some paltry 75 Hz refresh rate, either. You're getting a VA panel that's capable of hitting 170 Hz with a minimum 5 ms response time. That's where VA has the edge over IPS panels, quicker response times, that and better [[link]] contrast and black levels.

There are some obvious budget elements to the display, however, which are worth considering before you spend the money. First, the stand is a tilt-only stand, so no other adjustment allowed, and second, it's only capable of a max 250 nits peak brightness. That's pretty dim in a well-lit room, and that's possibly why I'd personally spend the extra $6.77 on the ASRock below.

ASRock Phantom PG27Q15R2A | 27-inch | 165 Hz | 1440p | VA | FreeSync Premium |$239.99 $156.77 at Newegg (save $83.33)

ASRock's gaming monitors are always so darned cheap—we love them for that. This 1440p panel offers resolution and a rapid refresh rate for a potent PC gaming combo, though the built-in Wi-Fi antenna helps it stand out from the crowd. That's hardly essential, but could come in use for some.

Price check: Amazon $229

The budget issues from the Acer immediately vanish as you're getting full height, tilt, and swivel adjustment and it's rated to a pretty bright 550 nits for peak luminance. That will deliver a really bright image and would make the Acer look very dim in comparison.

And hell, it is only another few bucks for something that will make a big difference in your everyday experience of the screen. But if the ASRock goes out of stock, just know there's another cheap 1440p option out there.

Customer support has been outstanding whenever I had any issues. They respond quickly and professionally, ensuring that any concerns with deposits, withdrawals, or gameplay are addressed immediately, which makes me trust the platform more. The variety of games is excellent, including table games like blackjack, roulette, and baccarat, in addition to slots. This keeps the platform interesting and allows me to switch games depending on my mood. Sometimes I wish there were more ways to earn rewards through loyalty programs or frequent player bonuses. Adding seasonal events or special challenges could enhance the excitement even further.
