Getting a great monitor deal on something that's perfect for working from home and gaming might seem like a bit of a stretch - particularly right now, as the demand for them is high.

Especially when you don't have to spend an arm and a leg to get a reliable screen from a reputable brand.

Highlights of this sale include the Dell S2417DG, offering a solid, mid-entry monitor for everyday use as well as possessing good gaming chops. Then there's the Acer Predator XB1, which has serious gaming pedigree behind it coming from one of the most established gaming monitor ranges going.
