This giant LG 240Hz OLED ultrawide monitor is $700 off right now

Oh boy. We’re just over a week away from Black Friday and the OLED monitor deals are starting to pop out of the ground. We’ve seen multiple stores offering 27-inch gaming OLEDs for as little as $500, but if you want something bigger, Best Buy has this 45-inch LG ultrawide OLED monitor for $1,000. That’s an amazing $700 off its original price.

The LG UltraGear 45GS96QB is a unique design. Other ultrawide monitors in this size range tend to go with doubled-up resolutions, but this one has the semi-standard 3440×1440, so it’s basically stretching a 34-inch display to a 45-inch frame. Depending on how you prefer to play, that’s either very weird or very smart — you get a physically larger picture without the big frame rate hit you’d see from, say, a 5120×1440 option.

And you’ll want those frames. With its 240Hz refresh rate and 0.03ms response time, plus compatibility with both AMD FreeSync and Nvidia G-Sync, this thing is made for gamers. It doesn’t skimp on connections either, with DisplayPort, double HDMI, and USB-C video with 65 watts of power output to charge a laptop. It can even function as a decent console display with an included remote control.

I’ve seen this monitor at Best Buy retail stores, so there seem to be lots of units on hand. It’s available to pick up today at my nearby store… and you might want to try to do the same since it’s showing a massive $200 delivery charge. (To be fair, it is an enormous monitor.) If I had to guess, I’d say this price is likely to remain good through Black Friday, but stock at nearby stores might sell out fast.
