Let's face it, high-end gaming on PC can be exorbitantly expensive when it comes to high refresh rates and low latency monitors; this is doubly true for some of the bigger names in the business. So picking up a discounted gaming monitor with these high-end features is a great find.

So if you're looking to get a 144Hz display - or above - then Dell, and its gaming division Alienware, may have some enticing options for you. Put simply, a high refresh rate means higher FPS in games; this is incredibly important if you play a lot of first-person shooters, racing games, or one-on-one fighters. 

The one thing to note is that these kinds of monitors tend to operate within the realms of 1440p over 4K; with peak performance being the trade-off for a higher resolution.
