About this deal

Display resolution: 3440 x 1440 pixels, HD type: UltraWide Quad HD, Display technology: OLED, Response time: 0. The panel health meter shows green, yellow or red based on how long it’s been since the panel or pixel refresh functions were last used. You can’t rotate the panel to portrait mode, but 5 degrees of slant is built-in, ostensibly to accommodate desktops that aren’t level. You can see a component bulge in the back surrounded by a grill that effectively vents the small amount of heat generated by the AW3423DWF. It looks best in dark rooms because it displays deep blacks without blooming, but it looks worse in bright rooms as ambient light causes the black levels to raise.

It does go fairly bright too, but I've seen brighter - and as an IPS the colours and blacks are decent but obviously not in the same league as OLED.If you need a monitor where the maximum refresh rate works over all inputs, check out the Samsung Odyssey OLED G8/G85SB S34BG85.

I have a slight gripe with being able to rest my webcam easily in the centre - the screen is quite thick and my Logitech C920 doesn't stay on it particularly easily. While you need a deep desk to place it on, there's enough space between the legs to put a smaller keyboard or other objects. AMD, and the AMD Arrow logo, and combinations thereof are trademarks of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. The monitor has a fast 144Hz refresh rate and a 1ms response time, ensuring that even the fastest-moving scenes are displayed smoothly and accurately. Pressing the joystick once brings up a quick menu at the bottom and a status bar at the top of the screen.

Last year, we saw one of the first OLED panels with Quantum Dot technology, the Alienware 34 QD-OLED (AW3423DW). Its QD-OLED panel produces better HDR performance than most monitors, including those with Mini LED backlighting like the Samsung Odyssey Neo G7 S32BG75, but it doesn't get as bright as the Dell Alienware AW3423DW. Colour accuracy is really good out of the box - I use a calibration tool to get a neutral color balance and only needed to reduce the blues by 5% on my specific unit. While one of the major concerns of the Dell Alienware AW3423DW was its audible fan noise, the issue isn't as prevalent with this monitor.

Annoyances aside, this is still an amazing experience for anyone who has only used TN, VA or IPS panel monitors. The Picture-In-Picture (PIP) and Picture-By-Picture (PBP) feature lets you view two PC sources simultaneously for next-level multi-tasking. The main difference that the AW3423DWF offers versus its predecessor is AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, while the older model supports Nvidia G-Sync Ultimate.I’ve been writing, playing, and complaining about games for as long as I remember, but it wasn’t until recently that I’ve been able to shout my opinions directly at a larger audience. We uploaded the latest brightness measurements and uniformity photos for the Accelerated Longevity Test. And with ComfortView Plus, you can game longer, thanks to an always on, built-in low-blue light screen technology that reduces blue light emissions without impacting colour accuracy.

Its QD-OLED panel aims to combine the perfect black levels of OLEDs with the wide range of colors of quantum dot displays, but like other first-generation QD-OLED displays, it still lacks a polarizing layer, and the black levels raise in bright rooms. The reason I recommend the AW3423DWF for gaming is that it delivers a magnificant image that works in a wide range of games, with a fast enough refresh rate to suit competitive play along with the colours, viewing angles and clarity that enhances more cinematic single-player titles.

Rewards: Rewards are earned on Dell purchases (excluding Dell Outlet purchases and third party products) made on dell. The firmware update also fixes the bug that caused colors to look washed out with Source Tone Map and Console Mode both disabled on previous firmware, as it performs nearly the same with those settings off with firmware M3B104.
