You won't find a better gaming monitor deal than this on Black Friday

How's this for a refreshing change of pace? You can get a curved gaming monitor for under $240 this Black Friday. The Dell S3222DGM has a long name and an even longer spec sheet, including FreeSync, a 165Hz refresh rate, and a 2ms response time. Put all that together and you have one of the better gaming deals of the weekend and what I'd argue is the best gaming monitor deal.

But the Dell S3222DGM 32 is a better gaming monitor for most gamers.
