While the best PC games are increasingly transitioning towards QHD and 4K resolutions, there's still a compelling case to be made for 1080p, 60 FPS gameplay. GIven that even the mightiest GPUs struggle to produce 60 frames a second in the most demanding games at 4K (we're looking at you here, Metro Exodus) but can easily manhandle 1080 games to the tune of 100+ FPS, a fantastic, affordable 1080 monitor with a high refresh rate is a very attractive proposition.

The AOC on offer right now for $124.99 at Amazon is a perfect example, a great 24", 144Hz panel with FreeSync. The MSRP is all the way up at $299, so this technically qualifies as a $174 discount, but even at the cheapest price we've seen it (around $180), this is a pretty serious bargain. Matching ridiculously high refresh rates with crazy resolutions doesn't actually make a ton of sense, since you'll likely never have the hardware to support both simultaneously (or by the time you do, you'll be ready to upgrade your display anyway), so a 1080p, 144Hz display at a great price is actually a very smart idea. And even when you're crushing frame rates over 200 with the best gaming PC, the FreeSync will ensure there's no ugly tearing or artifacting.
