Amazon is now offering the AOC 27-inch 1440p 165Hz Gaming Monitor for $249.99 shipped. Normally going for $310, this 19% discount or solid $60 price drop marks a new all-time low price we’ve tracked for this model while also being the third substantial discount to date. Shipping with support for Adaptive-Sync and NVIDIA G-SYNC compatibility, this AOC gaming monitor uses a 1440p IPS panel that can be overclocked to a 170Hz refresh rate. The 27-inch size class and 1404p resolution is a sweet spot for gaming in my opinion as you’ll have sharp details while still being relatively easy to drive by a mid-tier gaming desktop. You’ll also find 126% coverage of the sRGB color gamut so you could do some creative work on the side. Connectivity is handled by a single DisplayPort 1.2 input and dual HDMI 1.4 ports so you can have your desktop and consoles connected without having to swap cables. Head below for more.
While the inclusion of a height-adjustable stand is a nice touch, your desk space may be limited and the footprint of this stand is fairly large. In that case, you may be interested in this MOUNTUP Single Monitor Mount for $40. This option uses an adjustable gas spring to support the weight of a monitor up to 32-inches in size or up to 17.6 pounds. The arm this mount is based around will give you a full range of motion and adjustability for great ergonomics plus integrated cable management so the cords stay off your desk. When it comes to mounting to your desk, you could go with either the c-clamp or grommet clamp with the grommet clamp creating a cleaner look with the need for a hole in the desktop.
