Gaming Monitor Buying Guide 2026: 144 Hz, 240 Hz or OLED?

LG Ultragear 27GR95QE-B

The monitor is often the most overlooked part of a gaming setup, yet it displays everything your graphics card renders. Here is how to choose.

Refresh rate

  • 60 Hz: fine for office work, limiting for games.
  • 144 to 180 Hz: the gaming standard; the jump from 60 Hz is immediately visible.
  • 240 Hz and above: for competitive players, as long as your PC can keep up.

Size and resolution

  • 24″ 1080p: sharp, affordable and easy to drive.
  • 27″ 1440p: the sweet spot for most gamers in 2026.
  • 27 to 32″ 4K: stunning, but needs a high-end graphics card.
  • 34″ ultrawide: maximum immersion for racing, simulation and productivity.

IPS, VA or OLED?

  • IPS: accurate colors, wide viewing angles, fast. The all-rounder.
  • VA: deep contrast, great for movies and dark games.
  • OLED: perfect blacks, near-instant response and spectacular HDR.

Other things to check

  • FreeSync / G-Sync to eliminate screen tearing.
  • HDMI 2.1 for 120 Hz on PS5 and Xbox Series X; DisplayPort for PC.
  • An adjustable stand for good posture.
