Product Information

This will be a drawback if you enjoy newer games that lean on the visuals, like Cyberpunk 2077 or Assassin's Creed Valhalla. My gaming skills are decidedly average, but I felt like a king when mowing through monsters and zombies.

Matt often flies the virtual skies in Microsoft Flight Simulator and is on a quest to grow the perfect heirloom tomato. I love that it has no speakers (this is a plus for security AND in case they start buzzing later on due to crappy parts), and while the resolution is even more exotic than the 1920 x 1200, the extra pixels are great for doing work when not gaming. Competitive gamers won’t care about the difference, but players who care about image quality should take note. The lozenge shape around the attachment point hides a 100mm VESA mount and is textured like a grill.The EOTF is decent at following the target PQ curve, but most scenes are darker than they should be.

The Dell Alienware AW2524H and the Dell Alienware AW2523HF are impressive gaming monitors with many similarities, but there are a few differences in features. Although, it does have a lot of different settings that you can control with most settings being easy to find and get to. The Alienware's image appears pleasant on its own but, when directly compared to a monitor with a wider color gamut, it can look dull. There are many various interfaces under the VESA standard, which differ in the size of the brackets, the distances between the screw holes and their number.

Accidental Damage-Additional Information: Accidental Damage Service excludes theft, loss, and damage due to fire, flood or other acts of nature, or intentional damage. A 100mm x 100mm VESA mount is supported too, so the panel can be attached to any third-party monitor arm. It also supports Low Framerate Compensation for the VRR to continue working when the frame rate drops too low.

Hard drive retention: Hard drive retention is not available on models with a soldered hard drive, including XPS 9315 2in1, Chromebooks or Venue tablets, except the Venue 11 Pro.

This will usually involve letting them know what has gone wrong and they will arrange for the issue to be rectified for you. There are limitations to the Alienware's image quality, which I'll describe later in this review, but it's a good match for fast, colorful action titles. The Alienware AW2523HF response time is a touch sluggish, so its effective gaming performance isn’t much better than 240Hz screens.
