Let's see if this has a fan. Keeping my eye on this one.

It's using the same 144Hz panel as what LG is using.People in the monitor discord are reporting that its 120hz
Also, i think gsync ultimate has to be hdr10...
It is Dell's version of the 38GN, most likely... 144hz g-sync compatible, no hardware module, HDR600.
The price implies that it is wrong information. You can't have 38" HDR1000 with G-Sync hardware module for 1800 Dollars.It says gsync ULTIMATE so that should imply a physical module. PCMonitors also agrees:

Either the gsync ultimate spec was tweaked to include HDR600 or Alienware is giving out the wrong information.
Why? The 38GN (FreeSync) has been $1600 while the 38GL started at 1800 (G-Sync). Both use this same LG panel with different backlighting.The price implies that it is wrong information. You can't have 38" HDR1000 with G-Sync hardware module for 1800 Dollars.
I think because Alienware always has a premium to its price and it definitely cant support G-Sync Ultimate at that price point.Why? The 38GN (FreeSync) has been $1600 while the 38GL started at 1800 (G-Sync). Both use this same LG panel with different backlighting.
Looks like it doesn't have any gsync module:

Someone has to buy this monitor and clear the confusion how the fuck can gsync ultimate be hdr600.Monitor is on sale now if anyone wants to pay the MSRP ($1900):

I'm going to wait to read reviews (especially if there are any annoying fan noises) and for the first decent sale on it. Don't think the monitor is worth the $1900 price tag. Would probably pay $1600 max for it.
What's so impossible about it? G-Sync Ultimate has been doing HDR 600 since the PG27UQ came out over two years ago. You'll probably get the same HDR experience here.Someone has to buy this monitor and clear the confusion how the fuck can gsync ultimate be hdr600.
If it supports hdr600 and has hardware gsync module - end game for me until micro leds come into every house.
PG27UQ is HDR1000.What's so impossible about it? G-Sync Ultimate has been doing HDR 600 since the PG27UQ came out over two years ago. You'll probably get the same HDR experience here.
Now, ELMB + HDR is a different story...
Because it can't be Gsync Ultimate and hdr600. If it has hardware module and is hdr600 certified at the same time - this makes me feel excited, because all 38" gsync hardware monitors are hdr400.Why are you excited for hdr600 over 1000 in a Gsync Ultimate monitor?
Firstly, HDR-600 isn't a certification. According to VESA, HDR-600 (thus, HDR-400, HDR-1000, etc.) is an "undefined spec". The terminology you're looking for is DisplayHDR 600, which is a VESA "certification".Because it can't be Gsync Ultimate and hdr600. If it has hardware module and is hdr600 certified at the same time - this makes me feel excited, because all 38" gsync hardware monitors are hdr400.
Is that confirmed deadly silent for the 27 and 38? or just the 38?Well, now when it's out, it is clear that this monitor is the dream monitor come true. And it is the one to get without a doubt. It has the hardware Gsync module, the fan is deadly silent and it has HDR600. There is only one problem with it... there one brand that is not present (at least not in full force) on the market where I live, and guess what that's right....that brand is Alienware.
I speak only for the 38". Also lucky bastard you are...Is that confirmed deadly silent for the 27 and 38? or just the 38?
Also, holy !@#$, so I have a dell contact with work and requested a personal quote for the 27 and 38 and I think he gave me an employee pricing... cuz the prices he just quoted were just over half msrp with the 5 year coverage.
Good to know, thanks for the direct comment link, I scanned the post but didn't see direct info about the fan like that.I speak only for the 38". Also lucky bastard you are...
I'm guessing it's the fan for the G-Sync unit, but I'm not about to open it up and find out.
I ran the monitor all day and never noticed any sounds coming from it. I doubt I would have known there was a fan if I hadn't read about the potential before hand and tried to confirm.
And definitely no popping or coil whine so far.

Pretty common with any new product, sell it at a premium new to recoup your R&D and drop it in price as competition and/or demand slows.Wow if they can offer you that much of a discount, I guess the monitor has a huge ass markup
Can you order me that 38"?Pretty common with any new product, sell it at a premium new to recoup your R&D and drop it in price as competition and/or demand slows.
That similar model U3415w I think I last saw sold for like 1/3 of the original price (500-600) from Dell directly when they were end of sale'ing the model.
I wish, I'd love to get a bunch of'em to resell (with a small fee for myselfCan you order me that 38"?
Is there any way to get it to do good sRGB color for when you are using it for SDR gaming?I have it. It's the best thing I've laid eyes onfan is non existent noisewise. Not sure I can explain the gsync ultimate, but it does indeed work so I'd be happy to check something if it can be explained
I did the same. I'm sure it won't be worth the money per se as $1900 is an insane amount for a monitor... but I hope I'll be happy with itHey guys,
I decided to jump off a cliff, and ordered the AW3821DW today. Dell says it should be delivered Friday. Happy to answer any questions anyone might have, once I get it.
Hopefully it will be worth the money!
