The cost of QD-OLED gaming monitors is going down, even as many other PC components are still soaring above their normal prices. If your budget is locked at $300, Samsung’s 27-inch 1440p model costs exactly that much thanks to a recent $50 discount at Amazon . Finding a good QD-OLED monitor under $500 these days is pretty easy, but under $300 is pretty rare. Its G50SF debuted at $499.99, but has spent the past six months bouncing back and forth between $350 and $450.


Samsung 27-inch G50SF QD-OLED
Despite being cheaper than Alienware’s awesome $350 AW2726DM and some competitors, the Samsung G50SF doesn’t make a ton of compromises. It has a thin design, variable refresh rate support, and the same fast .03-millisecond response time we expect from these panels. It has a DisplayPort port plus HDMI 2.0 and a headphone jack (most competing monitors have two HDMI ports). Unless you’re keen on getting a monitor that has a 240Hz or faster refresh rate, you may not mind that this one tops out at 180Hz (via DisplayPort), or 144Hz via HDMI.
