If you’ve been waiting for a budget-friendly gaming monitor deal to strike before Black Friday, then you’re in luck. This 27-inch AOC display features an astonishing set of specs without a bank-breaking price, and it’s one of the cheapest 1440p displays from a reputable brand that you can buy right now.
You’ll need to head to Amazon to check out this bargain monitor, where you’ll find the AOC Q27G42ZE costs just £138.95. That’s a 30% drop in price and one that will save you a huge £60.05 in the process. Everyone’s favourite Amazon price checking tool, the Camelizer, confirms that this is a serious drop that brings it down to its lowest ever price to date.
AOC describes this as a gaming monitor, and it’s easy to see why. A 240Hz refresh rate, which you can overclock to 260Hz if you feel up to it, is perfect for fast-paced gaming, easily able to keep up with any fast movements on screen. The Fast IPS panel it uses, meanwhile, offers a faster response time than rival VA panel displays, while also providing better viewing angles than its LCD alternatives.
The AOC Q27G42ZE is also Nvidia G-Sync compatible, matching the refresh rate of your display to your Nvidia graphics card to avoid screen tearing. It comes with one HDMI 2.0 and one DisplayPort 1.4 input apiece, along with a 3.5mm audio jack to plug in your speakers or a headset. There’s also a 3-year manufacturer warranty included, just in case.
It’s unclear how long Amazon will keep this AOC Q27G42ZE monitor at its record-low £138.95 price tag, so if you’re looking to upgrade your visual setup, this might be the best time to do it.
