It's an odd time to make purchases or look out for deals on your most-wanted pieces of tech. You are most probably holding out for Black Friday or Cyber Monday before committing to anything, but a large number of super early deals have already started popping up, and some companies have already gone all-in and embraced the Black Friday advertising. Today's deal features a large OLED gaming monitor from LG, with a substantial $500 knocked off the list price, and this is whilst we're still on the cusp of November, but there's always time for a good deal, no matter the time of year.

Today's deal is hosted by Best Buy, where they have the 32-inch LG UltraGear 32GX850A-B OLED gaming monitor on sale for just $799.99. This is a $500 discount from the $1299.99 list price. One of the main features of this monitor is the ability to switch resolution and refresh rates for different content. You can have a smooth 165 Hz refresh rate while watching or playing your content in 4K, or switch to a faster 330Hz refresh rate when using the lower-fidelity FHD resolution, a popular choice for gamers that prefer faster refresh rates in eSports gaming titles.

The LG UltraGear 32GX850A-B has a glossy 32-inch OLED panel, which trades better color and clarity for a higher chance of reflections compared to a matte finish. It has a maximum resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels, with a 1,500,000:1 contrast ratio, 0.03 millisecond response time, and tight 140 pixels per inch pixel density. The screen is also VESA-certified DisplayHDR 400 True Black and HDR 10.

LG's UltraGear 32GX850A-B comes with gaming features such as "Crosshair," with a visual crosshair displayed in the center of the screen, to help provide enhanced vision and precision for increased accuracy in first-person shooter games when not looking down ADS sights. This gaming monitor is AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and G-Sync compatible, for reducing screen tearing in games at variable refresh rates. For connectivity, the display connections on the UltraGear 32GX850A-B include 1 x DisplayPort 1.4 and 2 x HDMI 2.1 ports.
