Let's face it, high-end gaming on PC can be exorbitantly expensive when it comes to high refresh rates and low latency monitors; this is doubly true for some of the bigger names in the business. So picking up a discounted gaming monitor with these high-end features is a great find.

So if you're looking to get a 144Hz display - or above - then Dell, and its gaming division Alienware, may have some enticing options for you. Put simply, a high refresh rate means higher FPS in games; this is incredibly important if you play a lot of first-person shooters, racing games, or one-on-one fighters. 

The one thing to note is that these kinds of monitors tend to operate within the realms of 1440p over 4K; with peak performance being the trade-off for a higher resolution. If you've decided that you're more interested in portable power, then you can also check out our picks for the best Prime Day laptop deals also. While you're at it, we've started rounding up the best early Prime Day TV deals too.
