Need a monitor with a lot of bells and whistles? Lenovo's latest is worth a gander.
What you need to know
- Lenovo announced the new Legion Y25-25L gaming monitor.

- The Legion Y25-25L is expected to go on sale in June for $320.
Lenovo has a boatload of new Legion gaming PCs to check out today, but it hasn't forgotten the rest of your PC setup. The company also announced the new Legion Y25-25L, a 25-inch gaming monitor that includes plenty of extras that should make you games look crisp and fluid.
The panel comes in at 24.5 inches with a 1080p FHD resolution, so you'll want to look elsewhere if you want a QHD or 4K display. However, it backs that up with support for both AMD FreeSync and NVIDIA G-Sync. So, no matter whether you're playing with Team Red or Team Green, you'll be able to make sure that frames are flowing to the display just right to prevent screen tearing.
