I’ve covered this monitor quite regularly over the last couple of years as it’s been one of our favorite picks when it’s been on sale, thanks to its fantastic build quality and specifications. It has everything you could want in a cheap budget gaming monitor, from a curved (1500R) 27-inch screen for immersive gameplay viewing to its high 165 Hz refresh rate for smooth motion. The only slight drawback is the inclusion of a VA panel, which although it features great blacks, is sometimes susceptible to possible ghosting image problems on fast gameplay titles such as FPS games.

Down to one of the lowest prices I’ve seen on this monitor, you can grab this deal over at Dell and snag theDell S2722DGM for just $199. For under $200, you can pick up a great gaming monitor for a starting setup, and rest assured it’s from a quality monitor manufacturer with good customer and warranty support should anything go wrong.
