Crazy good FHD monitor. Clarity is amazing for only being 1080p. And with such a high refresh rate and Freesync/Gsync Compatible this thing is pretty future proof.

For reference I'm using a 5800x with 3080 12gb. It's a great 1080p monitor but it just wasn't for me. I was coming from Dell's S2721DGF(1440p@165hz) and I wanted to go up in refresh rate but I guess after using 1440p for so long, it just wasn't cutting it for me. Don't get me wrong, it was perfect for competitive titles that can put high frames such as overwatch and rocket league but when it came to a more demanding but still somewhat competitive title like Call of Duty (MW2) it just looked blurry in comparison and wasn't even pushing high frames, which is expected. I'm still giving it 5 stars for that reason, it's an amazing 360hz monitor. Smooth for rocket league and over watch 2. They definitely removed features to make it more affordable but you don't NEED Nvidia's reflex analyzer or a stand with RGB, especially if you plan on using a monitor mount.. Just one other thing, if you use this on PC, make sure to download alienware command center. There you can tune the Alien FX, the cross hair was nice to have but only after switching it from the default "crosshair large".

Amazing for competitive gaming, great upgrade from a 144hz monitor. will 101% recommend if trying to get into competitive gaming at such a good price for a 360hz monitor

Lets just get the disappointment out of the way. And it is the only disappointment. No RGB. Now lets be fair. RGB on a monitor is pretty useless because you never see it. But i miss seeing my little alienware head reflecting off my window at night.
Now the positives and why this is likely the best competitive IPS monitor available. Keep in mind, panel variance.
There is not ghosting or inverse ghosting on the extreme setting. Why is this important? Because dell has done with this panel what could not be done on the previous models. That being the perfectly tuning of the extreme overdrive setting for the quickest response time. I have tested multiple asus monitors and they all suck in this regard.
Also, if you are concerned that they ditched the gsync module, dont be. There is no point in having gsync with this high of a refresh rate. I can pick out screen tearing on a 165hz screen when playing uncapped. I cannot do that with 240-360hz. Just play uncapped if you are buying this monitor.
And lastly, and most importantly, the price. $319 for black friday. That is insane for a 360hz monitor that performs this well.
Side note for those who are used to 1440p. Its not the pixel density (less than 20 ppi) thats really the issue here, its the screen size. If you are used to a 27" screen and have never played on 24-25" then you may not like it. But this monitor is solely for competitive use. Its not a jack of all trades 1440p 240hz monitor. It is for sweaty @** FPS players who want to do just that, Sweat... and Win.
* This monitor is using a different auoptronics panel than the previous aw2521hf and aw2521h models.
