If you're thinking of taking the plunge and buying an ultrawide gaming monitor this Prime Day, well, I don't blame you. I never used to be a fan of ultrawides, but having used quite a few over the past few years and experiencing the benefits of a stretched out screen, I have to admit I've become a convert.

The truth is, all the major retailers start slashing their prices to compete with Amazon, and as a result its absolutely worth shopping around to find the best discounts.
