Why you should buy the 45-inch LG UltraGear OLED gaming monitor

Your powerful gaming desktop should be paired with a solid gaming monitor, and the 45-inch LG UltraGear OLED gaming monitor is a fantastic choice. Its OLED technology delivers intense brightness, perfect black levels, and lifelike colors, while its 800R curved screen fills your peripheral vision for complete immersion in the best PC games. The gaming monitor also features an anti-glare surface to reduce distractions, and it also runs on LG’s webOS platform so you can watch your favorite streaming shows on the monitor while your computer is turned off to take a break.

Two of the most important numbers for gaming monitors are their refresh rate and response time, which our computer monitor buying guide describes as how often the images are updated on the screen, and how quick image transitions are shown, respectively. The 45-inch LG UltraGear OLED gaming monitor beats our recommendations for both specifications, with a 240Hz refresh rate and a 0.03ms response time.

This Corsair wireless gaming mouse is $95, but here’s the catch
The two colors of the Corsair M75 Wireless gaming mouse.

You won't be able to enjoy the upgraded rig you scored with gaming PC deals if your accessories aren't up to par. For starters, you should also have a keyboard and mouse that are designed for gamers, and Corsair has an offer that you wouldn't want to miss. You can currently get a $95 discount on the Corsair M75 Wireless gaming mouse, which brings its price down from $130 to a very affordable $35. There's a catch though: This is a refurbished device under the brand's Revival Series. If you're fine with that, proceed with the purchase immediately as stocks are likely limited.

If you see another peripheral that you want on Corsair's site -- perhaps a gaming chair or a headset -- you can use the code DIGITALTRENDS10 to get 10% off. This doesn't work for items already on sale (like the M75 Mouse), full systems, or monitors.
