This speedy 360Hz OLED gaming monitor is just $550 | usagoldmines.com

Despite their gorgeous, vibrant picture, OLED monitors aren’t the fastest on the block, typically hitting between 165 and 240Hz. But if you’re a PC gamer who needs something a little speedier and you’re on a budget, you’ll want to check out this ASRock 27-inch model. Today it’s just $549.99 on Newegg.

If you’ve been hunting for an OLED gaming monitor for a while, this one probably looks familiar. It has the 27-inch, 1440p panel that’s hitting the sweet spot for current PC graphics, with pretty decent support for multi-device inputs thanks to DisplayPort 1.4 and double HDMI 2.1. And, unlike a lot of screens in this price range, it supports video over USB-C… but only with 15 watt charging. That means you’ll need an extra charger around if you want to plug in a gaming laptop.

But the real boon here and the reason you might want this ASRock model over some slightly cheaper alternatives, is the speed. At 360Hz, it’s putting out so many pixels that your puny human eyeballs might not be able to keep up. It also has an integrated Wi-Fi antenna. Not actual Wi-Fi in the monitor, just an antenna for the Wi-Fi on your desktop motherboard. That’s neat, I guess. But if you’re hunting that kind of speed for PC gaming, aren’t you using Ethernet anyway? I digress.

Newegg is showing this as a regular price, not a discount, so I suppose it’s likely to stick around for a while. There’s a $500 alternative that lowers the speed down to 240Hz on the OLED panel, but that price expires today, July 31st.
