We've flipped our calendars from Black Friday to normal Saturday, but that doesn't mean the deals are off. They're still very much on, and while I tend not to buy much stuff during the holiday season, I do feel a draw toward huge discounts. It hardly matters what kind of tech it is—it's interesting to see just how deep some companies are willing to cut prices on tech during this singular weekend.
We have to admit these 4K OLED TV Black Friday deals make OLED monitors look painfully overpriced
22.11.2023 - 18:07 / pcgamer.com
LG C3 OLED | 42-inch | 4K | Smart TV | 120Hz | $1,296.99 $896.99 at B&H (save $400)
LG makes some mean TVs, but they're actually pretty excellent for gaming on, too. Not only do you get the benefits of the awesome OLED panel technology (incredible contrast and rich colours) but it'll run up to 120Hz and supports HDMI 2.1 for all your gaming needs. This smaller panel is more of a size we like for a smaller space, though it's still a bit large for a desktop.
Price check: LG $899.99
LG C3 OLED | 48-inch | 4K | Smart TV | 120Hz | $1,396.99 $1,046.99 at B&H (save $350)
This slightly larger C3 OLED is once again a bit too big for the desktop but would work great in a smaller living room space where you're sat closer to the TV.
Price check: LG $1,049.98
The old TV-as-PC-monitor thing used to come with a whole hill of compromises. These days, any self-respecting TV does 4K at 120Hz, variable refresh, low latency, they works. Which makes it all the harder to ignore some of the best Black Friday deals on OLED TVs right now. One thing's for sure, they make OLED PC monitors seem hideously overpriced.
How so? Well, you can have the 42-inch version of the C3 OLED set, complete with LG's brightness boosting Evo panel tech, for just $897 from B&H Photo. That's the real 4K deal for not a lot more than you have to pay for 1440p 27-inch and 34-inch OLED monitors.
Of course, there are plenty of options if you want to go bigger. The 48-inch LG C3 Evo is yours for $1,047. Still not enough? The 55-inch LG C3 is $1,297 and the 65-inch is currently on sale at $1,597.
Incidentally, you can get the lower-spec LG B3 65-inch for just $1,297 on Amazon right now. But the B3 isn't as bright as the C3 and even the C3 can struggle in that regard, so we'd stick with the C3 models.
LG C3 OLED | 55-inch | 4K | Smart TV | 120Hz | $1,796.99 $1,296.99 at B&H (save $500)
Another step up to 55 inches nets you an even bigger $500 savings. At this size, we're getting beyond plausible desktop monitor usage. But this is a huge amount of screen for the money for a living room PC for gaming and movies.
Price check: Amazon $1,296.99
Samsung S90C | 55-inch | 4K | OLED | 120Hz | $1,897.99 $1,297.99 at Amazon (save $600)
For PC usage, we tend to prefer Samsung's QD-OLED panels to LG's W-OLED thanks to the former's superior full screen brightness. This is a 55-inch model, runs at 120Hz and is about as bright an OLED as you're going to find at this price point.
Price check: $1,299.99 at Best Buy
There's a big step up to $2,497 for the 77-inch LG C3 and $3,997 for the 83-inch, so it's a clear case of diminishing returns on those larger models.
So, let's stick with the 42-inch to 55-inch LG C3 models. What are the downsides versus an actual monitor.

I'm loving the fact this 1440p Asus gaming monitor is competing with the best 1080p Black Friday deals
Asus TUF Gaming VG27AQA1A | 27-inch | 170Hz | 1440p | VA | $249.99$179.99 at Newegg (save $70) For the budget-conscious gamer, Asus makes a mean gaming monitor. This screen may be cheaper, even costing less than some 1080p panels we've seen in the past, yet it delivers 1440p resolution gaming with a 170Hz refresh rate (overclocked). Not too shabby. Newegg is also offering a mail-in rebate for another $10 off.

This kit eschews the usual RGB bling so if that's something you want, you'll need to look elsewhere.

Nvidia RTX 4070 Ti vs AMD RX 7900 XT: Black Friday deals stick them at the same price, so here's which I recommend buying
PowerColor Hellhound RX 7900 XT | 20GB | 5,376 shaders | 2,500MHz boost | $749.99$729.99 at Newegg (save $20 with promo code BFDCY2Z38)For sheer 4K gaming performance, this GPU is a great choice thanks to impressive shading power, masses of bandwidth, and ridiculous amount of VRAM. It's pretty power hungry, though, and isn't as good as Nvidia's cards when it comes to handling ray tracing.
