Forget 1440p, all the cool kids game at 4K, right? It’s certainly much more doable these days, in no small part thanks to upscaling tech from Nvidia and AMD. Just as important, 4K gaming monitors keep getting cheaper and this year’s Prime Day deals have only made prices better.
Let’s kick things off with the Samsung Odyssey G70B or G7 for short. Unusually for a Samung, it’s an IPS model, which probably means it doesn’t actually use a Samsung-made LCD panel.
Either way, it’s 28 inches, hits 144Hz and 400 nits, so it ticks all the important boxes and it’s yours for just $400 on Amazon. I quite like the extra inch over 27-inch alternatives, so this is where my money would go at this end of the 4K segment.

That said, 32 inches is actually my favorite form factor for 4K, so if possible I’d up the ante to LG’s 32-inch 4K Ultragear for $525 from Amazon. Again we’re talking 144Hz and 400 nits, but for my money the 32-inch category capitalizes better on all those pixels and LG does the very finest IPS panels. 4k is arguably overkill on 27-inch and 28-inch monitors.
Of course, for the ultimate 32-inch 4K experience, you’re going to want an OLED. That’s not going to come cheap and if you’re spending heavily you may as well buy the best. And in our experience, the best is the Asus RoG Swift PG32UCDM. It’s hardly a snip at $1,300 from Newegg, but it is an absolutely awesome 4K machine.
That said, I do rather struggle with the notion of spending that much on a mere 32-inch screen when similar money will buy you a monster 4K OLED. How about an LG C3 Evo in epci 65-inch trim for just $70 more?
You can grab one from Amazon for $1,370. OK, it’s last year’s model, but it’s still thoroughly modern LG WOLED tech on a huge scale with 120Hz and adaptive refresh support. Is it too big to be a pure PC monitor? There’s only one way to find out…!
So, there you have it, the very best 4K gaming monitor deals for this year’s Prime Day. Personally, I’m finding it very hard to decide between one of these and the ultrawide OLED alternative. First world problems, and all that.
