AW3423DWF

Ultrawide is peak, especially if you're playing flight sim I really don't see why you would even consider a 16:9 monitor. Considering how expensive your pc is I would recommend a 1440p 34" oled monitor. I'm using an alienware aw3423dwf.

Got the Alienware dwf 34” recently and it’s amazing. First oled, and the colors are amazing. For racing it’s nice and have a good FOV imo. I notice racing at 60fps is less smooth than 165fps, didn’t test inbetween, so maybe the cap of difference is lower than 165hz. Saw a somebody comparing and they said that after 140hz they didn’t notice a difference anymore (tested 60, 140, 244). I got my monitor from amazon returns. You get good discounts on good as new products. In my case the box was opened (it looked shit) but nothing was wrong with the monitor itself, still got 30% discount. I also have 2 year warranty as normal for new monitors.

Currently on an AW3423DWF. I’ve outgrown it. Daily workload is 2 to 3 Excel models, multiple LLM projects, Outlook, Teams, browsers. I need way more real estate. Was holding out for the 2026 releases, but: \* 52G930B is a VA panel at $2,000. Pass. \* Samsung isn’t refreshing the OLED G9 this year. New Penta Tandem 49” panel doesn’t hit mass production until H2 2026. \* 39GX950B looks perfect on paper (39” WOLED, 5K2K, 142 PPI) but has zero US availability info. So what’s actually buyable within the next 30-45 days? The Samsung G9 OLED at \~$1,200 seems like the default, but 110 PPI with triangular subpixels for all-day spreadsheet work makes me nervous. The Dell U5226KW (52” 6K IPS Black, $2,900) is a productivity monster but terrible for gaming. The LG 45GX950A is on sale around $1,400 but that 800R curve is polarizing. No price cap. OLED preferred. Would you buy now or wait for something better ?

Upgraded from the DWF. I felt like the curve would be to extreme as well. But having used the 5K2K for about two months now I can say that the curve is more immersive and it doesn’t bother me at all. Get the 45.

I just setup my 39GX950B last night and played some Recsec. Coming from a AW3423DWF myself, its a really nice upgrade!

Im still using my qd oled 3440x1440 ultra wide 165 alienware. I also have a 77 in 144hz 4k qd oled tv and that works plenty for most games. Depends on what monitors you already have but for me, I'll wait till the teck gets better. My dream monitor is not out yet

I really like my AW3423DWF but I wouldn't say it gives a huge advantage because it's wide. Maybe a tiny bit more immersion? I'd prioritize a 1440p OLED.
