4K gaming is in and I have done a ton of research on monitors lately, but since my own gaming laptop can’t quite handle 4k gaming, I didn’t pick up a 4k monitor, but thanks to doing 5 hours of research on NewEgg, Amazon, and more I have compiled a list of the top 4k gaming monitors currently you can get in 2020 though many still had shipping delays due to Amazon shipping times and some were out of stock at time of this writing. In doing my research I wanted to list you the top budget 4k gaming monitors that I can find and keeping in mind the criteria I used was under $400 as the price point for budget. At this price point you are not going to get a vertical refresh rate above 60hz that I can find even with budget 4k gaming monitors from BenQ, AOC, Viotek which make among the least expensive monitors you can find. I tried to include 27″ panel as minimum starting size for a 4k monitor.
Monitor | Size | Panel | Refresh Rate | Notes | Price |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
28” | IPS | 60Hz | WLED Display, FreeSync support, 90% DCI-P3, 1ms (GTG) response time, 5-Way OSD joystick delivers intuitive monitor controls, ASUS Eye Care technology with flicker-free technology and blue light filter minimizes eye fatigue plus. | ||
32” | VA | 60Hz | 95% DCI-P3, Comes Color Calibrated, Freesync Supported, PiP/PbP supported, 2 HDMI, 1 DP port. For the size the price is excellent as you are getting 32″ for the price of a 28″ panel. |
Price when in stock is generally around $400.

This 4k monitor features a near unbeatable price for feature comparison at being under $250 and may be worth taking a chance on. Plus due to the way the monitor is designed you can easily but 3 side by side for near borderless triple monitor display. | At time of this writing it was $239.99 but you can Check Price for latest. |
