A seriously killer deal if your GPU can handle it.

Now that Fallout 76 supports ultrawide resolutions, now is a fine time to start thinking about buying an ultrawide monitor. If you want to experience nuclear havoc as it was intended – in a massive open world among friends – you’ll want the proper screen to show the true vastness of Appalachia.

But whether or not you’re interested in Todd Howard’s latest post-post-apocalyptic romp, most PC games that come out these days boast support for the 21:9 aspect ratio of the WQHD resolution. And now that our home-built rigs are getting more powerful, we’re wielding graphics cards that can handle 3440 x 1440 pixels. One of the better monitors to cop for gaming in ultrawide fashion is the LG 34UM88C-P which, as it stands, is 46% off its sticker price on Newegg right now. You'd better hurry, because this deal ends in a few hours.

The LG 34UM88C-P is $319 (save 27%) at Newegg today
Explore boundless open worlds through the wide-angle lens of this 34-inch WQHD beauty, no vsync required.


With a whopping 34-inch IPS panel, you can safely view this monitor from any angle without having to worry about dimness or distortion. It’s meant to be looked at from all sides, meaning you can have a live audience visit your apartment to watch you play Dream Daddy … if you’re so inclined. They don’t even have to wear headphones because this LG monitor comes with a pair of 7-watt speakers built-in.

Though it’s not quite as nice as HDR would be, the LG 34UM88C-P also covers 99% of the sRGB color space, so you can trust that colors will pop rather than appearing washed out as they do on some competing displays.

FreeSync is another benefit of this monitor, as it’s capable of dynamically changing its refresh rate (Hz) to match the frame rate (fps) of whatever game you’re playing. That said, you’ll have to be using an AMD Radeon RX card since FreeSync is a product of AMD. The maximum refresh rate of the display is 60Hz, thus, assuming your PC is equipped for it, you can theoretically play Battlefield V at 3440 x 1440 and at 60fps. Dope.

Of course, being the hellish Black Friday shopping season that it is, this deal won’t last for long. As such, we suggest that if you are going to purchase it, do so sooner rather than later. Honestly, $484.99, down from $899.99, is such as steal that we wouldn’t think twice about it now. Especially if you’re wondering what you should buy for the gamer in your life this winter, you can’t go wrong with a 34-inch ultrawide monitor.
