I checked. No other posts about this yet. There are other LCD deals as well. It is part of Dell's boxing day sale.
Very good deal, about 30% off.
Shopback now has about 6% on Dell. I am not sure,yet, if Alienware LCDs are covered.
Happy bargaining!
I did not post anything about the specs because I thought this one would need no introductions. Pretty much one of the top range ones in its size.
I had been thinking about the LG 27GN750 because I personllay prefer 27inch in FullHD resloution. But the LG one has a variable range from 48Hz while the Alienware one is from 1Hz. Cool.
They both have LFC, which is what the Dell references.
They have a minimum VRR value, then they
use a frequency within their VRR range that's a multiple of the frame rate, and show the same frame until it updates.
When did this deal start? Cashback was 12% recently.
LOVEKEANU code may be an option for 7% off instead of the cashback offer.
I found out today. I checked yesterday at work but it was not there.
An update: the LOVEKEANU code is not eligible.
I got this during the previous deal only a few weeks ago. By far the best in class 1440p 27 inch IPS monitor. Blows the dell and the lg away.
Curious as to how so?
you mean what deal before? there was an eBay deal with limited stock may 100 units from Dell.
Yes the eBay deal
… it's well-calibrated wide-gamut 240Hz monitor?
I'd prefer the Samsung G7 myself, but the comment is spot on.
Oh, thought it was 144mhz. Fair enough!
Colour gamut, build quality, minimal/zero ips glow. And if you have a high end 3000 series gpu that can handle the 240hz, this monitor truly flex’s.
Nothing but positive reviews for this monitor - https://youtu.be/1aKh6IVMqSM
Tempting. Aside from gaming. This or Dell UltraSharp UP2716D for photo editing?
The height adjustable stand connects with the monitor via a non-removable VESA plate, which is not shown in the image.
Does that mean you can or can't put it on a monitor arm?
you need to take the stand off the LCD first. then you will see four VESA 100 screw holes. although Dell's stytle is that those holes are "dent-in" meaning they are not on the same level of the rest of the back cover. if your arm comes with a giant plate, you might have a bit issue.
maybe I was wrong. this model looks a bit different. have to see it in person to determine.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-afU5e72H8 @ 1:26 shows the back with screw holes. that is what I presumed what it would look like when the stand is taken off.

shows a different looking back. I cannot see the screw holes on that pic.
Dell cashback is a scam, doesn't seem to track at either cash rewards or shopback according to many people.
Great monitor! I am currently using them as dual monitors for gaming and photo editing :)
Anyone upgraded from an asus pg279q? Wondering if the screens are much better on these alongside the increased refresh rate (165 to 240hz).
Thanks!

Thanks OP! Been eyeing this ever since launch :)
Great monitor, great price.
Just a little FYI, it only runs 144Hz at 10 bit colour. It will drop down to 8 bit colour at 240Hz as it does not support DSC.
Specs are excellent!
27" IPS QHD 2560 x 1440 (DisplayPort: 240 Hz, HDMI: 144 Hz) 1ms response time.
Only issue for me is the price 😅
