So, beyond the essentials like consoles and PC hardware, what else do you need to maximise your gaming experience? The choices available to gamers for extra peripherals is vast, and whilst the extras on this rundown are by no means essential for every gaming set up they’ll certainly enhance the experience.
PC Gaming Monitor – Alienware 34 QD-OLED
For the most part, you’ll want your PC gaming monitor to be capable of delivering your PC’s specs in vivid detail and bursting colour. For a premium all-rounder, the Alienware 34-inch QD-OLED gaming monitor ticks all the boxes. With a refresh rate of 175Hz, it’s perhaps not in league with the 240Hz or 360Hz refresh rates demanded by ultra-competitive gamers, but for everyone else this monitor’s 3440×1440 resolution, dual HDR modes, and crystal-clear curved OLED panel provides fantastic picture depth and saturation to display games in all their glory.
