Because of the coronavirus pandemic, many office workers have been working from home for months now, and if you count yourself among that group, you might be thinking about upgrading your home office setup. If you’re not a dedicated PC gamer, you might not own a monitor already, but fortunately, there are plenty of budget monitor options out there that can make working from home much easier and even offer an affordable entry to PC gaming. A new deal at Best Buy offers a great discount on an already affordable Acer monitor, but the deal is only available for today.
As part of Best Buy’s latest one-day sale, Acer’s 23.8-inch Full HD FreeSync monitor is on sale for $100. That’s $60 off its usual price of $160, making this budget monitor’s price even more appealing. The deal comes with free shipping, with delivery available as soon as Friday (may vary based on your location).
The Acer monitor features Full HD 1920 x 1080 resolution, enough to deliver a solid gaming experience beyond just a standard budget monitor. Of course, you’re getting what you pay for here–this monitor doesn’t have 4K resolution and won’t stack up against more expensive gaming monitors–but it’s still an excellent option for light PC gaming and doing general office work. This 23.8-inch monitor also features AMD FreeSync technology for delivering tear-free images as well as an antiglare coating and smooth 75Hz refresh rate.
The rest of Best Buy’s one-day sale is worth checking out, although this monitor is definitely the highlight. There’s a budget 58-inch 4K Roku TV available on sale for $280 (normally $350) and a Samsung soundbar system (including a subwoofer) for $850, discounted from $1,000. One of Best Buy’s Deals of the Day of the Day also features The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt’s Complete edition for just $17 on PS4 and Xbox One, and you can combine this offer with another one to get a free PC copy, too.
