Score this 1440p OLED gaming monitor for an absurdly cheap $428

When it comes to PCWorld’s Amazon Prime Day coverage, it’s my job to handle the monitor segment—and this year, it didn’t escape my notice that, despite a general downward trend in OLED prices, the cheapest one during Prime Day was about 20 percent more expensive than last year. But here’s another AOC OLED monitor that’s now cheaper than it was during Prime Day, currently sitting at a price of $427.69.

This AOC Q27G4ZD monitor hits all the same points as the budget OLED mainstays (yes, I know, “budget” is a relative term with OLEDs), with a 27-inch 2560×1440 panel, a speedy 240Hz refresh rate, and a depressing lack of USB-C functionality. You do get three inputs (two HDMI and one DisplayPort) for handling multiple machines or consoles, though, and there are four USB-A ports for connecting a few accessories. But yeah, this doesn’t make a great pairing with a gaming laptop.

But as a budget-friendly upgrade for your desktop setup, this is a great choice. AOC offers G-Sync compatibility, a 3-year Dead Pixel warranty (though it doesn’t say anything about burn-in), and VESA compatibility for adding a monitor arm.

This is the best price I’ve seen for an OLED monitor in months, and I don’t know how long it’ll stick around, so hop on it if you’ve been waiting. But if it’s not quite what you’re looking for, check out PCWorld’s roundup of the best monitors on the market for other options.
