In 2025, as graphics cards, memory, and storage have become harder to find at reasonable prices, monitors have only become better value. So, should you have the rig to run it, there has never been a better time to upgrade to a 4K screen.
Acer, Asus, LG, and AOC all had strong showings this year, too, but in such a packed year, you need to pick just a handful and the Alienware and KTC below just managed to beat them out. Our Alienware pick is super quick, with a gorgeous HDR QD-OLED panel.
The KTC monitor is a bit of an underdog without the recognisable name of Philips or Alienware, yet it’s still a punchy, quick and affordable 1440p panel.
If you’re in the market for a new monitor, we have picked out three that deserve a nomination for the best monitor of the year. Come back on New Year’s Eve to discover which one will take the gold.
