This 27-inch Alienware Oled Gaming Monitor With A 360hz Refresh Rate Is $300 Off

I’m still getting accustomed to seeing 27-inch 1440p QD-OLED gaming monitors for little than $700 — aft all, it wasn’t agelong agone that they were retailing for astir $1,000. So ideate nan emotion of sticker daze (complimentary) to spot 1 of Alienware’s models pinch a accelerated 360Hz refresh complaint for hundreds of dollars off, which is nan lawsuit right now astatine Dell’s website.

Originally $899.99, this monitor’s last value plunges to $599.99 erstwhile you usage promo codification AW27300 at checkout. With tax, my checkout full rang up to a cool $653.24. An OLED gaming show that costs little than a mid-range GPU? Hell yeah. At this price, there’s nary request to hold for Alienware’s forthcoming AW2725D, which nan institution hopes (but isn’t promising) to motorboat for $549. It’ll person 1440p solution pinch a 280Hz refresh rate, truthful it’s really slower than Alienware’s discounted AW2725DF.

In position of nan specs, Alienware’s 27-inch AW2725DF sports AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, positive support for VRR via either its HDMI 2.1 larboard aliases done either of its DisplayPort 1.4 ports. That’ll guarantee that nan surface looks soft and tear-free, moreover during moments erstwhile nan framework complaint fluctuates wildly. While nan sheet tin execute up to a 360Hz refresh complaint — equating to 360 visible frames per second, if your GPU tin support up — it’s only supported via nan DisplayPort. Through HDMI 2.1, nan monitor’s refresh complaint tops retired astatine a respectable 144Hz.

The AW2725DF has an anti-reflective coating, but since I haven’t utilized this nonstop display, I can’t vouch arsenic to whether it’s afloat matte aliases somewhat connected nan glossy broadside (the newer AW2725Q is much glossy than matte, successful move letting much opposition through). It has 111 pixels per inch (PPI), which should beryllium capable clarity to debar seeing pixelated text. A debased PPI dampened my enthusiasm for different OLED monitors, including nan Corsair Xeneon Flex that I reviewed successful precocious 2022.
