Alienware, Dell’s gaming PC brand, has some of the most affordable OLED monitors from any major supplier. Granted, “affordable” is a sliding scale, and you’ll still pay hundreds more than an equivalent LCD gaming monitor, but as someone who’s taken the plunge, I think it’s worth it. Today Alienware’s newest ultrawide design, with a new look and a faster panel, is down to $699.99 on Amazon.
This is the AW3425DW, a 34-inch model that debuted earlier this year. In addition to some sleeker looks, the 3440×1440 monitor has a considerably faster refresh rate than Alienware’s original “affordable” designs, boosted to 240Hz. That lets it match most of the other recent ultrawide offerings from companies like Samsung and Asus, while still undercutting them on price. With a $100 discount, this monitor is about the best deal you can find without going for a refurbished model or a whitebox brand.
The monitor does sport a single USB-A and one USB-C downstream port, but with no mention of video input and just 15 watts of charging, it’s not a great companion for a recent gaming laptop. You’ll have to make do with just two HDMI 2.1 and one DisplayPort, um, ports. Still, if you’re looking for an affordable way to take your gaming desktop to the next level, look no further.
