Product Manuals
Q: Would this be a good monitor for console gaming
A: No, this would not. Consoles can’t take advantage of this monitor’s two best and most expensive features, gsync and 240hz display capability. This is also only a 1080p monitor and is not HDR compatible which both the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X do support. This is a monitor designed for competitive PC gaming and really nothing besides that. I personally have this and it’s wonderful for PC but I have a samsung 4K monitor for my console.
A: No it does not have a built-in speaker unfortunately.
Q: Can this be hooked to a PS4
A: The monitor has an HDMI input which means yes. Though keep in mind you are paying a premium for Gsync and 240hz refresh rates for this monitor and won’t be utilizing its potential pairing it with a PS4.
Q: Can this be used with a monitor stand (ex: a 3 monitor stand with the brackets built into the stand)
A: Yes, this unit can be mounted on a 100x100mm VESA compatible mount.
A: You can’t play a game with just the monitor itself. You need a PC to plug it into.
Q: Can you connect a xbox one x into the monitor?
A: Yes it will work with a xbox one x but I would not buy a 240hz refresh monitor for anything other than pc because consoles are limited to 60hz refresh. My advice buy a nice tv or a nice 4k monitor with HDR to take advantage of the features the xbox one x has. Great monitor for pc gaming tho if you have a good enough gpu to push 240hz
Q: Can this monitor be mounted to a wall? if so what size mount will I need?
A: I found this answer from Dell’s website: “That is not known by Dell because we do not test different model stands on different models. The AW2518H User's Guide page 9 shows us that the panel uses a standard VESA bracket. So in theory, any VESA stand could work.”
Q: Does this monitor have VESA mountin options?
A: It is VESA mountable based on Dell's website. I'm 99.9% sure all "Dell" monitors use the same stand-mount technology, which features a cutout and holes for a VESA mount
