Save $150 on the Asus ROG Strix 27-inch QHD OLED monitor in Newegg's unmissable FantasTech Father's Day sale

Popular US retailer Newegg has kicked off its FantasTech Father's Day event, and one of the biggest bargains I've spotted so far is on Asus' impressive 27-inch ROG Strix OLED monitor, now $400 (was $550).

That's a massive $150 saving right there. But even better, the display is backed by Newegg's FantasTech Price Protection promise.

That extra peace of mind is a nice bonus if you're worried about buying too early. Any eligible product displaying the FantasTech Price Protection badge between June 15 and June 21 will automatically receive a refund if Newegg lowers the price before June 28, with refunds processed on July 8.

Today's top monitor deal

The monitor itself has a 27-inch QHD 2560 x 1440 resolution that combines with a blistering 240Hz refresh rate and an ultra-fast 0.03ms response time to deliver exceptionally smooth and crisp visuals.

AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and G-Sync compatibility also help keep motion fluid by reducing screen tearing and stutter.

Color performance is equally impressive, covering 99% of the DCI-P3 color gamut with true 10-bit color support and a Delta E rating below 2 for excellent accuracy.

That makes it just as appealing for creative work as it is for fast-paced gaming, especially if you edit photos or video alongside your entertainment.

Asus has also included OLED Care Pro technology with a Neo Proximity Sensor that detects when you're away from the screen and switches to black to reduce the risk of burn-in.

DisplayWidget Center lets you adjust monitor settings and OLED care features directly with your mouse instead of hunting through on-screen menus.

The package includes DisplayPort and HDMI cables, a VESA mount kit, a microfiber cloth and a three-year Asus Rapid Replacement warranty with cross-shipping service.

There's a three-month Adobe Creative Cloud subscription thrown in for free too.

If you've been waiting to upgrade your display, this huge discount and the added price protection make this one of the best monitor deals I've found this week.
