Top Monitors 2023

The ASUS ROG Strix XG17AHP is a 17″ 1080p 240Hz gaming monitor with FreeSync for tear-free gameplay, an IPS panel for rich colors with wide viewing angles, premium build quality, and an integrated battery. While it is quite expensive, it’s a worthy investment for many traveling gamers.

The Acer XF250Q is one of the most affordable 240Hz gaming monitors. In addition to 240Hz, it offers low input lag and quick response time for a flawless competitive gaming experience. It’s the perfect display for hardcore players on a budget.

With a few omissions and a high price tag, we can’t quite call the Asus ROG Swift PG32UQX perfect. But its picture quality is without equal among computer monitors. A Mini LED backlight with a quantum dot film provides amazing contrast and a huge color gamut for the latest gaming and video formats. It has the best image of any computer display we have ever reviewed.

The Lenovo Legion Y27q-20 is an impressive gaming monitor. It delivers an immersive gaming experience thanks to its large screen and high resolution, and its wide viewing angles make it great for co-op gaming. It has a high refresh rate and exceptional response time, resulting in smooth and clear motion in fast-moving scenes. Unfortunately, it isn't the best choice for gaming in the dark, as it has a low contrast ratio and poor black uniformity.

The Acer Nitro XV340CK Pbmiipphzx is a great gaming monitor. It has low input lag, a fast response time, and a high refresh rate to provide a smooth and responsive gaming experience. It has FreeSync support and is also compatible with G-SYNC to help reduce screen tearing. Sadly, its IPS panel's low contrast ratio makes it less ideal for gaming in the dark.

The ASUS TUF Gaming VG279QM is a great gaming monitor. It has outstanding motion handling, resulting in clear motion with very little blur. It also supports a variable refresh rate and is compatible with both FreeSync and G-SYNC devices. It also has outstanding low input lag when gaming at 280Hz, but, unfortunately, the 60Hz input lag is extremely high. It also has limited compatibility with the Xbox Series X and the PS5, so it's not a great choice for console gamers.

The Dell UltraSharp U3224KB is a bleeding-edge product that costs a lot. But it provides the sharpest image I’ve ever seen along with solid contrast and accurate color. Aside from high-speed gaming, there is nothing outside its capabilities

The HP Omen 27qs is the best value 1440p gaming monitor if you’re not interested in HDR.

Corsair's 27-inch 1440p OLED computer monitor is a winner, sure to impress both console players and PC gamers for whom price matters little in the quest for incredible performance and visual clarity.

The Dell G2722HS is one of the most affordable 1080p high refresh rate IPS gaming monitors yet it offers certified G-SYNC compatibility, a height-adjustable stand and a rapid 1ms GtG pixel response time speed. As long as you don’t mind the low pixel density, it’s an excellent budget gaming monitor!
