    Monitor review with a different monitor sponsor ... you sir are living life on the wild side 😂😂😂
  • I've had the same monitor for over a month and still can't get a grin off of my face every time i boot it up.
  • @uwuMichael
    This monitor is actually very colour accurate out of the box. Rtings did a test on the out of box calibration and it scored a 9.6/10
  • @LastRightsTV
    I have this monitor and love it. Never had the fan turn on ever. I run it in HDR dark mode tho. I can't handle the super brights the dark HDR is ideal for me
  • @munodavid91
    Just got mine yesterday did the new software update and no complaints about it coming from Alienware 27wd and wow would never go back to 1440p
  • @Jay-tb3ll
    Coming from an LG Ultragear in 2020 to this is completely worth it. I get excited to use it every day 😂
  • @Squig8
    I have this monitor - I don’t think ABL is enabled at all in SDR mode, I could be wrong though but I’ve never noticed the brightness level change like that (I keep hdr disabled in desktop mode)
  • @Henlak-
    Ive had this monitor for a few months now and it's really incredible. Games look amazing on it and (so far) no burn in. I've paired it with a 4090 set up and it's a dream
  • @steffren
    I'm gutted I had to return mine, it's an absolute beast! The HDR settings take quite some tinkering, but once that's done, load up Cyberpunk and try to pick your jaw up off the floor
  • @Ukgyt99
    I Got the 27 Non Oled Aw2723df and i love it got it in a sale too awesome monitor
  • @dt35591
    Now that Alienware have ditched the G-SYNC ultimate module in their QD-OLED monitors there's basically no fan noise. It was the fan in the module that was the main culprit and I've never heard the fan in my AW3423DWF over ambient noise.
  • @codyd7841
    The way you through around those boxes at the start is harder than it looks those things are heavy lol
  • @boltup2220
    The deal breaker for me with this monitor is that it didn't have a 3.5mm audio jack. I like to connect my speakers to my monitor so I can have sound output for both my PC and PS5. Because of this, and the fact that I prefer flat over curved, I did pay the $100 extra price tag on the ASUS PG32UCDM. However, at the current discount of the Alienware right now of $999, If I was in the market now, I would prob get the alienware for $300 less, and just get a cheap ARC soundbar for the PS5 and pocket the rest.
  • @dt7197
    I got mine yesterday, I literally could not be happier with how insanely good this thing is.
  • @Meredith87
    Been so long since your last live show have u given up doing live ?
  • @R-Blizzy
    Im going to hold out until black friday for a good discount. Love the monitor
  • @Nathan15038
    I mean, I currently have dual 32 inch 60 Hz refresh HD monitor for my set up. Yes it is a 1080P monitor and it’s a big 32 inch display so you could see the pixels. Definitely thinking about upgrading to a better monitor and this one was perfect because I did not want to compromise on the size of the display but at the same time I want a good quality display with high refresh rate. And this monitor fits everything 32 inches, 4K, 240 so high refresh rate. But the cherry on top is the fact that it’s an OLED which is a big deal because I can’t get over the fact that my main monitors for my main gaming PC set up are not sharp. And for other people, maybe they don’t really care or can’t even tell the difference but I could tell the difference due to the fact that I do daily drive a 15 ProMax, 23 M3 Max MacBook Pro 16in, 24 iPad Pro 13in, and an Ultra Watch. All these have OLED displays and definitely there’s a big difference between OLED and a regular non OLED display. But the price might be a little steep, but I’ll probably just buy one out of the two monitors and it will be my main monitor out of the 2. This would also tied to the fact why I want a curved gaming monitor because my dual monitors right now are curved monitors and it would look weird if one of them is flat and the other ones curved. 😅😊
  • @ItsMrMcG
    Had this a few weeks now, I can never go back. Tarkov, star citizen, warzone it all looks phenomenal in 4k.
  • @mcmurder8835
    Got one last week with discount from Dell. Can easily work around the lack of audio interface and lack of kvm. Curve is not an issue, just.. different. Once you start playing all worries disappear. This is a gorgeous display, oled panels are a major leap forward in pc gaming display fidelity. Long anticipated for good reason. The high refresh is the icing on the cake. Aside from increnental improvements in refresh rate and brightness, I dont see a major generational movement like this until micro LED tech arrives in this segment. Could be another decade away.
