We're now on the second and final day of Amazon's Prime Day shopping holiday, and new deals have appeared while others have sold out. We've updated our gaming monitor recommendations right here, from more affordable 1080p and 1440p monitors to higher-end 4K and ultrawide models.

Choosing the best gaming monitor for you can take a little bit of research, but in general we recommend something that fits nicely with your PC or console of choice. For example, low to mid-range gaming PCs are best off with a 1080p or 1440p screen to ensure playable frame-rates, while higher-end machines - plus PS5 and Xbox Series X consoles - suit a 4K screen.

As well as resolution, specs like refresh rate and screen type can impact your experience, so we'll add some advice where appropriate to help guide your choices. We've tested hundreds of monitors over the years, so trust us to pick out the best options available!

Best Prime Day 1080p monitor deals

1080p monitors are the perfect starting point for PC gaming, with high refresh rate 144Hz options offering a huge increase in fluidity over the 60Hz limit you'll find on most office monitors. You don't need a super-fast PC to play at 1080p 144Hz either, just a reasonably modern CPU, a discrete GPU and a suitably esports-adjacent game like Rocket League, Counter-Strike 2 or League of Legends. Above this, you'll find diminishing returns, but the jump to 240Hz, 360Hz and above is still noticeable - and much in demand for esports athletes.

Best Prime Day 1440p monitor deals

1440p monitors offer the best bang for buck, with a noticeable improvement to detail without requiring a hugely powerful PC to actually make use of the resolution in games. We recommend 1440p 144Hz monitors as a great baseline to aim for, with higher refresh rates coming in handy for fast-paced and competitive games.

Best Prime Day 4K monitor deals

4K monitors are the most exciting segment in my book, offering the opportunit to not only be a great fit to a mid-range or higher gaming PC, but also perfectly suiting PS5 and Xbox Series X consoles. For the latter, make sure your console of choice includes a refresh rate of 120Hz or higher and HDMI 2.1 support.

Best Prime Day ultrawide monitor deals

Ultrawides are a strange bunch, with a range of options from extremely cheap (and surprisingly small) office displays through to gargantuan models with high-end specs. We recommend something mid-range - 1440p, 165Hz and VA or IPS tends to be a good value spec.
