This statement has no basis in factual data at this time. While the Alienware offers a 3 year warranty against burn in this in no way means there will be no burn in. We need long term testing to know this for sure.
X3D chips look great in benchmarks but in the real world the impact is less noticeable. The extra cache is only impactful for SOME games and so you're paying for a part time upgrade. Further these new chips are only adding the extra cache to one side of the dual chiplette, this means it will be...
100% agree, would not by an OLED online, want local protection. In the end I chose Microcenter over Best Buy however, Microcenter actually has accident insurance with their warranty. Even if I drop the display, they replace it.
I have had my C2 42 for a month now and every other monitor in the house looks like crap. The contrast on this thing is beyond belief, I do not even run HDR in most games, the difference is still amazing.
I considered the 34" display as I enjoy ultrawide gaming sometimes. I went into Radeon...
This is very much a "specialty" monitor. The target is competitive gamers and unless you're playing at a pro level, or think you are, this monitor makes no sense.

I have been looking at the Acer, Gigabyte and Asus models and the Gigabyte seems to be the best reviewed. Lighting in my room is a none issue as the room is fairly dark and I get next to no sunlight in here, yes I know that is sad. The window in the room is directly behind me so I use wood...
So I am right now fighting myself as I decide on a new monitor. I want to move to 4K but older eyes means the need for a larger display. I am debating the 43" displays out there right now as well as a 48" OLED. This will be 100% for computer use; from web browsing, to office work, to a lot of PC...
