General
230 USD is a great price for this 165Hz gaming monitor.

The last time we introduced you to Dell's S2417DG gaming monitor was last August. If you missed this sale and have been beating yourself up ever since, don't do that anymore. That's because the monitor is now down to $229.99 on eBay (via Antonline, an authorized Dell reseller).

For reference, Best Buy's asking price for this model is $429.99, which is way too high; a check of the price history on Amazon shows that it most recently sold for $287.49. It has also dropped to $249.99 several times over the past year, but this deal through Antonline is the lowest price I have seen.

The S2417DG is a 24-inch monitor with a resolution of 2560x1440 and a refresh rate of 165 Hz. It also supports Nvidia's G-Sync technology.

For whatever reason, there do not seem to be many 24-inch monitors with these same specifications. However, to put the price into perspective, AOC's Agon AG241QX is a 24-inch gaming monitor with 1440p resolution, 144Hz refresh rate, and FreeSync support, priced at $349.99.

We have not reviewed this monitor, but our friends at Tom's Hardware have. They state that it "should be at or near the top of most gamers' short lists."
