This 24-Inch Gaming Monitor Is Just $250 In Today's Deal Of The Day; Plus, More PC Gear On Sale

PC gaming gives players the opportunity for ultra-high refresh rates that exceed the 60 frames per second most console games strive to hit. And while your gaming PC may be powerful enough to reach those highs, you still need a monitor with support for higher refresh rates. However, they can be quite pricey, which makes this one-day deal from Best Buy so exciting. The retailer has the Dell S2417DG 24-inch G-Sync gaming monitor for $250, down from $430. It comes with free shipping, and if you order now, it'll arrive as early as May 5-6.

The 24-inch Dell gaming monitor boasts a resolution of 2560x1440 and a refresh rate of 165Hz on top of its 1ms response time and G-Sync support. G-Sync is a technology that replaces V-Sync, an in-game setting that sacrifices performance for keeping your screen from tearing. This means you can enjoy variable frame rates that don't always match your display's refresh rate, tear-free.
