Alienware AW2721D vs AOC AGON CQ32G1

Everything I say reflects my own and honest opinion. If you like 1440p, this monitor's specs are f***ing insane, right? Well, I couldn't have put it a...

I purchased the 2160p display during a time when my GTX 970 was still beastly. Unfortunately, trying to push 2160p resolution in games on a GTX 970 still wasn't feasible. I could do it, but only on the lowest quality settings. I decided that for my next upgrade I would get a 1440p monitor instead for better framerates

I'm using a VESA certified KableDirekt DP 1.4 cable and two high end HDMI 2.0 cables, very tight and unnecessarily crowded port area, there’s plenty of space to spread them out more. - Noticeable overshoot in MS Office, web browsing (text) and other apps when using the faster or higher response time setting, sometimes noticeable during gaming as well, you are left using the slowest setting, fast

3 star review is SOLELY due to the whole 1ms claim. Yeah, sure the monitor can do up to 1ms refresh. BUT<-------- HUGE BUT. This is ONLY if you are willing to sacrifice half the brightness to achieve it

What is up everyone, it's Mark from Silence Tech and hope you're keeping well. Dell very kindly sent out their Alienware AW2721D which features an IPS...

Um, people that have less powerful computers say they're even running. I wouldn't say an Apu, but lesser powerful graphics cards will still be able to...

The whole thing is much heavier than i expected, although this allows it to be very sturdy, and while the majority of the outer materials are plastic,...

Subtly is the name of the game here. No obnoxious RGB lighting, un-intrusive stand, and the slim sides of the monitor all fit a gorgeous screen. The curve of a 32 inch monitor actually adds to the overall presentation of the picture in a nice way. The monitor also comes with several view modes for fps games, rts games, and so forth I bought the monitor when it was on sale for $320

Only issues: 1) Monitor Stand is massive - will have to buy a monitor arm (any recommendations would be appreciated) 2) My box was damaged, missing DP Cable in the box (not Dell's fault). 3) Very inconvenient cable placement, you must take off the removable back panel and swing it around to connect, while this might not be an issue for some, with such a big stand and not a lot of desk room, it is a bit of a hinderance. But it does look clean, so this CON depends on the user. 4) Alienware Command Center cannot locate the monitor (not a big deal, I didn't buy it for the lighting features anyway, but it could be a problem for some gamers) 5) The stand pushes the monitor very forward, not a deal breaker, the monitor arm will fix this issue but from the back of the stand to the front of the monitor, it is around 9 inches, which is a problem if you have a narrow desk

I don't know if it just placebo but I tried using 4 other dp cables and the images were not as good in my opinion compared with the one added in the box.Okay on to the review,I took the plunge and bought this monitor. Its a 32 inch curved monitor and it is much larger than I thought it was going to be. if you have a small desk u might want to think of getting a larger one
