    I got mine from JB a while back for this price. Best monitor I've ever owned. Playing Ori ATM and omg Soo pretty

    • Hows the text look?
      I've got a AW3423DWF and the only downside is the text is a bit funky (you get used to it)

      • Much better than the 3423, as the DPI is higher and it's a Gen 3 panel v Gen 1 (or Gen 2 maybe?). I had the 3423 and liked it (being an UW) but the text fringing was just too much for me so I returned it to Dell and bought the 3225, and I don't regret it.

        Note I have the 3225 scaled at 150% as I have pretty shit eyesight and it looks great. No fringing etc that I can see.

        I've genuinely tried to use one of these (similar, but last generation Alienware QD-OLED 34" 3440x1440 monitor), however, I've just found the downsides of OLED to be still quite significant.

        The text (and general sharp line) fringing was a huge deal - I use my display mostly for work, with gaming as an important (but certainly secondary) use case, and it just didn't make sense for me to sacrifice the usability for what I actually mostly use the display for.

        There are also several other inconveniences - OLEDs still don't get that bright, so usage in a bright room is still not the best compared to a top-tier IPS display.

        The glossy finish, at least IMO, is still a bit of a trade-off that I think is a difficult sell for me.

        FWIW, I think it's a fantastic monitor if your primary use-case is gaming and watching HDR content. Otherwise, you can get a top-tier, calibrated, professional-grade IPS display for this sort of money (e.g. a 32" 4K Dell Ultrasharp), which is just a more practical display for most people.

    • some Qs if you dont mind

      • do you run it at 4K 240hz all the time, does it look bad if you set it at 4K 120hz? I have a laptop GPU and if driven hard it sounds like a jet taking off
      • if you use it for gaming at FHD or QHD (so the monitor has to upscale) , how's the graphics quality, acceptable?
      • +1

        Due to the fact I have a GTX1070 in my system, the most the card can do is 4k is 120HZ, and that's what I have it set to and it looks great.

        For normal desktop usage (work/emails and content consumption) it runs fine with no issues. For games at 4K my card struggles with anything remotely new and max's out at around 30-60 FPS in most newer games at 4k. I can get 70 FPS in Borderlands 2 and a few other games at 4k and it looks fantastic even at those frame rates.

        My wife has a laptop with a 4060 at 90HZ and it runs 4k at that with no issues and I try to use that as much as possible.

        I have run some games at QHD and to my eyes it looks more than acceptable, and while there is some difference the OLED screen makes up for it in a lot of ways.

        Highly recommended.
