Video Description
Get the Dell Alienware AW2724DM: https://www.rtings.com/afflink/AbAAAJ+QIjo= The Dell Alienware AW2724DM is a budget-friendly 27-inch, 1440p gaming monitor. Part of the Alienware gaming monitor lineup, it's a lower-end model than the Dell Alienware AW2723DF, but it has a lower 180Hz refresh rate. Competing with other lower mid-range and budget 1440p gaming monitors, like the LG 27GP850-B/27GP83B-B and the Gigabyte M27Q P, it has gaming features you'd expect to find, like FreeSync variable refresh rate (VRR) support and G-SYNC compatibility. It comes with an ergonomic stand that offers the most common adjustments, and it has some RGB lighting on the back to compliment your gaming setup. It features an IPS panel, and it's only available in this size as well.
