Plouffe is a big fan of Alienware's monitors, and their new AW2723DF looks like it could be another great addition to the lineup, but do the specs live up to the actual gaming experience?

    • So true. My PHILIPS has four USBs that pass through a USBC to my laptop, and I have two occupied by a webcam and a speaker. I use the other two for connecting to debugging tools for microcontrollers and usually I keep them occupied with a type-C cable for newer boards and my phone, a type-B cable for older boards and my DSLR camera. When something uses a micro-B, I would rather unplug my USB speaker and use its cable than unplug anything from the monitor because it's such a nightmare. I like how this monitor has the two USB ports down there so it's way easier to reach.

  • Portrait capable stands (especially both directions) are amazing to have even if you intend to use it landscape, as: a) they tend to be quite sturdy, well built and can be adjusted for if the surface isn't totally flat.. and b) it is infinitely easier to access the plugs on the back in portrait.. No need to shove your face under the screen to try and see which plug goes where followed by stabbing blindly and hoping you get the right one

    • The point of the video was not that vertical is not useful but that this specific monitor with high refresh is probably too expensive to use as a (secondary) vertical monitor. There are plenty other options that have less features but that are a lot cheaper and might be a better bang for buck as a vertical monitor.

  • I have the older AW2721D, and it's glorious. For the older one, you must use non-gaming mode with the slowest response time setting of "Fast" to keep the image crisp and not overdrive/overshoot. I suspect you using the middle setting is why you're seeing the overdrive issues. Response time should still be decent with the lowest setting.

      @friedrich1277@friedrich1277 Жыл бұрын
    • ​@@friedrich1277 The S2721DGF is not the same panel as the AW2721D based on everything on Rtings. The RGB subpixels are even shaped differently. Compared to the AW2721D, the S2721DGF does not support HDR, has lower brightness, worse viewing angles, and doesn't have a G-Sync module. Not sure if you can OC the S2721DGF to 240hz, but it is missing a whole lot of hz, which makes it cheaper. Based on the features, the AW2723DF seems more like a AW2721D panel without G-Sync Ultimate.

Oleds looks so much better as someone who's picky. I will never use another traditional LED monitor. Maybe would make an exception if there was a really really good 1440p micro LED out there, but I haven't looked yet. The reason the prices are dropping is because OLED prices are dropping an IPS glow is s***.

I mean, I get the monitor’s still quite expensive but in the future, I might get two of these to put as a dual monitor (one horizontal, one vertical) and have them set to the same settings so it’s more consistent! much better than having the Studio Display from Apple as a second display considering the price XD

  • 3:20 The click it amd pull out screen is the way samsung recommends it for every single monitor I bought. The 24 inch gaming monitor and the M5 32 inch did the same thing just with different stand design for obvious weight differences. For any other screen I strongly recommend doing it as close to this as possible. Leave it in the foam and protective sleave in the box and take the BACK foam off and install whatever stand you decide to rock. For wall mount its the same but the plate needs to attach to the wall bracket or arm. Leave MORE cable for adjustment on any PC peripheral not just screens. I had to rip my setup appart because of short cables and it wasnt FUN. Happy building gamers!

  • My Gigabyte M32U has really bad inverse ghosting when pixel overdrive mode is on. Had to turn that off. It didn't look any worse in terms of motion smoothness with it off so it was really no loss for a major image quality boost. It was expensive, but it's the best monitor I've had so far. It's only 90% DCI-P3, but it's far better than my 7 year old acer IPS screen. I think it's just 100% sRGB. It's not terrible though which is why it's now my secondary monitor. Can't wait for the next wave of tech to upgrade in another few years. Eagerly awaiting inexpensive high color gamut OLED type displays.

In fact that detail is left pretty vague on a lot of products. Not that it matters for me specifically cause I found the only drawing pad in the world that supports full fat HDMI/Displayport TOGETHER (Kamvas 24 Pro 2.5K), I'll accept that as it is QLED or not.

There are games where they have this weird basic (admittedly what motion blur SHOULD HAVE BEEN) semi-decent implementation that you can't turn off most of the time even if actual motion blue and post processing is off.

On extreme response time this 1440p monitor has 3x the inverse ghosting as the 360hz. Really makes a difference if all you plan to play is FPS games, so for stuff like VALORANT I'd pass on this one. For almost every other game though, the 1440p 280hz beats out last gen's 360hz.

  • I recently purchased this on Black Friday sales and no regret. I had purchased a 27” LG oled and returned it for this. Half the price, not as good colour clarity but with all the issues LG oleds have with Gsync issues / burn in I think I’ll wait until the tech gets better. For now this is half the price and no buyer regret.

I feel that in 2022 USB-C/Thunderbolt should be an ecosystem option on a device at this price for any accessory that might conceivably come along while USB-C is the “current” connection spec. In my particular case, if I have a gaming computer and also a locked down work laptop with pure USB-C for power and video (which I do), being able to connect in and out simply for both usage cases would have been nice.

For content watching if your up close it's not crazy good but for gaming it's so good. I get no ghosting and none of the Ips glow that I had before. Plus my Ips panel before I could never get bright enough, with my VA panel that's not the case.. in some cases it's a bit to bright.
