"textContent": "$885 for Prime Day, $715 off\n\n**LG 45-inch OLED ultrawide gaming monitor**\n\nSee DEAL\n\nBigger isn’t always better. If you upgrade to a double-4K monitor for gaming, you might find that your desktop or laptop can’t actually use it to its fullest, especially if it has a high refresh rate. That’s why I like LG’s 45-inch, 1440p OLED gaming monitor. You get a huge size and the vibrancy of OLED, but it doesn’t need more power than a standard 34-incher. For Prime Day, it’s only $884.99.\n\nThe LG UltraGear OLED 45GX900A-B has basically all the same specs as a 34-inch gaming monitor, particularly a 3440×1440 ultrawide resolution, and a speedy 240Hz refresh rate. But with the size blown up to 45 inches and a dramatic 800R curve on the panel, it makes a much more dramatic showpiece for a gaming PC setup. (For context, that’s ten inches wider and 4.5 inches taller about a 40 percent boost in total size.) That fast refresh rate means that you’ll be competitive for online multiplayer games, and triple device inputs (HDMI, DisplayPort, USB-C) make it super flexible.\n\nThough it’s obviously meant to be a media powerhouse, this monitor also performs pretty well at office tasks, too. That USB-C port offers 65 watts of power delivery for a single-plug connection to a laptop (though that’s not enough to power up a full gaming laptop), and you get a pair of USB-A ports for other gadgets too. While not quite a full productivity monitor, you could certainly make it work.\n\nThe $884.99 sale is almost half off the original retail price if you happen to have Amazon Prime. If not, don’t worry: both LG’s web store and Best Buy are offering the same model for $899.99, still an amazing deal. The latter might even have some you can check out in person, depending on where you live. There’s also the 5K2K version of this 45-inch monitor, if you _do_ have a monster of a gaming PC, on sale for over $600 off.",
