It’s about time you found a monitor screen that we seniors (old people) could actually see. It’s 34 f…ing inches wide. I can’t imagine how hot it will be to get down to a game of Street Fighter ll with my buddy Vinny next door. I can see the characters. I’m just wondering if it’s too big to store behind the couch. Thank you for your reviews and your boxing reviews. Besides knowing your stuff you make us laugh. Long live Zorz. Thank you. And tell them I think Alienware is a rocking name but they don’t need all the extra letters and numbers.
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahah I love this. Tell Vinny hes screwed. Sal - you're an elite member of the Zorz Nation!
@@ZorzGaming wtf is that crap mouse ur using ; and the screen colors look bad this alienware too yellowish
Great unboxing!!! You always teach me more than I bargained for!!! Memorizing!!! Very Zorz!!!
Thank you so much!! Takes Zorz to know Zorz.
Today I looked at my AW3423DWF and your voice saying "Alien vision man!" intruded my mind which had me laughing. You really left an imprint with this channel haha, keep it up man!
Hahaha I love this!! Thank you so much!! Welcome to the Nation of Zorz!
I recently ordered one, can't wait for this bad boy to arrive. Its going to help so much with my 3d art
Sweet!!!
Thanks for the video!! I was between this, the Samsung G8 Oled and the LG 240Hz. I chose the Alienware. All hail the Zorz Nation!
Thank you dude! If you want gorgeous you got the right one! Congrats!!!
can you try out the 45gr95qe and compare it with your 27GR95QE? compare the brightness, ABL and overall feeling
Trust me I would adore that!! I just don’t have 2 grand laying around! Let’s start a petition to get LG to send me one!
I want the full comparison between these two so much. I heard that the gloss on the 34" is like worse of the two(from hw unbox), do you agree on that?
Coming SOON!!!! Thank you for being patient. Pros and cons to the glossy...
Have you considered the lg c2 42 inches? Im stuck between the 2 you compared here and that. I really do like 4k gaming , but love oled too, and c2 might even be too big. Having a hard time deciding
I wish I had one. My friend has one. I need to literally go over there and try it!
Finally can't wait for the review video
Thank you for being Zorz! Thanks for your patience.
@@ZorzGamingever heard of boulders gate more specifically boulders gate 3!!!!
@@MyFlawsBurn Looks interesting!
you have sold me on this monitor, im now saving to get his asap. cant wait to get some minecraft going on it! 🙂
Nice Hexen poster in the background - great game back in the day.
WOOOOH! First person to notice. Hexen was THE VERY FIRST EVER FPS GAME I PLAYED MULTIPLAYER. It was on LAN at the offices of Interplay and I was hooked forevermore. Thanks for noticing and subscribing and being fucking ZORZ!
Maybe I’m reading into it a bit, but judging from your first initial impressions, I think you’re enjoying the Alienware a lot more lol. Understandably so.
It's close... but ... Stay Tuned!
Can definitely see what you're saying with the colors on the video vs what we can see on stream. Colors look very saturated though. Not sure if that's me watching through my monitor though. How long does it take to get used to the curved screen? I've been worried about moving past 27" because I'm not sure I'll like the curving. Looking forward to the 10 bit color review on the LG.
the curve on this is very very subtle don't worry about it.
Swing! I I will have the alienware review and comparison out tomorrow. It's long and informative. I fucking love the curve. I want 32 or 34 with a curve for sure. I wouldn't buy just yet though and you'll see why in review or we can talk tonight on stream!
looks like you'll have a full review soon! Also wondering what its' like to play games that don't have ultrawide. I assume you don't feel like you have to pull the monitor in closer to you?
Good question! I haven't felt that way but I've also mostly played ultrawide games
and Yes review coming shortly!
Can I use this version with NVIDIA Geforce cards and not experiencing tearing? I’m not sure if I need to buy the version with g-sync or maybe this is better/enough.
This is enough! Works fine! You get some additional features with the other one being "OFFICAL G SYNC" but you also get double the input lag. The other differences are minimal.
@@ZorzGaming Thx a lot for the info. Just bought DWF!
Nice vid! Did you notice any fan noise from the monitor? I have a silent PC and would be disappointed if it sounds like a gpu is strapped to the back of that monitor.
Nope! all good!
Personally prefer the 27in LG until we see a glossy, 32in 4K high refresh OLED monitor.. Will be at least a couple more years..
Eh I already returned mine, wasn’t bright enough, the only bright mode was vivid mode but was dim for productivity when you have a full white screen.
Great review man. I have to ask what is that mouse your are using, it looks really uncomfortable yet looks super cool.
It is the Zaunkoenig M2K! And it is still to this day the best mouse I’ve ever played with if you can get used to the shape and no side buttons. World class click latency and best build quality ever.
About time 🫡
Tell me about it :)
Great video ❤
Floord! My og homie! Love you!
@@ZorzGaming yessir! Love u! 😘
nice! what keyboard are you using?
Steelseries Apex Wireless mini Pro
“14:23” 😂😂😂you are the king
Thank you for being Zorz !!
hdtvtest reviewed the 27'' lg 240hz oled and compared showing it to be faster as far as input lag and gaming performance vs the alienware but it does not get as bright But I think the ultrawide monitor is the way to go vs normal 16:9 now I am loving ultrawide even when I have black bars in some games its still more than when I had the 27'' on screen real estate I have been converted team ultrawide
Yah but the input lag difference isn't the noticeable difference. Comparison coming soon. And yes widescreen is unreal!
Can't wait to see how it compares to the LG oled one
Time to watch!
Coming soon thank you!
One thing about this monitor, is you can tell that the black levels look almost gray under brighter light conditions. This monitor really does best on a room with little light.
I'm still trying to decide to get this or an LG c2 42inch. The LG has a polarizer keeping blacks inky
Indeed I talked about that in the full review. Its unfortunate but for me not a deal breaker cause I can control all the lights. I hear the LG c42 is the best coating but its super slow refresh rate is troubling...
No,my Dw have perfect Black!in Hdr1000 oder Sdr mode...only right settings dude
@@GS1X88 But the coating still makes blacks look grey with bright lights on it though...
@@ZorzGaming No...mine are fine with blacks.Contrast 75%
Winowds Hdr Calibrate Black=0
Brigthness=1000
Nvidia Control Panel go to Digitalcolorsetting and Set contrast 55%
An Color (all) to 60% thats it...Sdr brightness in Windows Hdr setting to 30
Try it :)
@@GS1X88 Will do those settings sound great! I was just talking about the coating though and how if you have a bright light on it it will start to make blacks look grey :)
Where is your dad? I appreciate how much you talk highly of him, I miss my dad and hope I am a good to my kids also.
My Dad passed way in 2021. The m2k unboxing was the last thing we filmed together shortly before. Thank you for asking. I'm sure you're a Zorz father.
Not being 16;9 and also no HDMI 2.1 support or 10/12 bit color is deal breaker for me. I’ll see what you think though :). How much better is the gloss compared to LG though?
LG has no gloss, Dell isn’t full glossy but far better than the LG matte coating
@@Secure_Mental I know LG doesn’t have gloss I own the OLED monitor :) just curious if the gloss on Alienware is adding noticeable improvements. I personally love the LG screen and don’t understand the oily comments
There are no movies or games currently using true 12bit even though dolby vision is mastered in 12bit I believe, The alienware does 10 bit when switched to HDR like most screen tech does, SDR is usually only 8bit. basically companies use Dolby vision as a selling point even though no tvs atm can truly support it, DV is maxed at 10k nit and 68billion colors after all, I believe you need atleast 4000 nits to see the actual benefit.
LG is killing 2 birds with one stone allowing console support, ultrawide isn't supported on consoles also. The lg has 2.1 to support 4k for consoles, it then downscales the signal to 1440p
This monitor does 10 bit color at 144hz and 12bit at 120hz
@@siliconcpu7569 If you dont love widescreen this isn't even worth looking at... But full review coming soon! Thank you for being patient!

Coming in the full review! Thank you for watching!
Alien vision man I been saying that all week bro good video I want some alien vision as well and gonna buy it soon the lg is just to dim for me
hahah Thank you! Well they are vastly different monitors! Check out the comparison I did ;). When you get it make a video and send it to me on twitter! Alien Vision Man!!!
@@ZorzGaming I did and that’s what made me get the Alienware plus how can you go wrong with alien vision man!! I’d love to game with ya bro! And sorry I don’t have twitter. Thanks for the Zorz videos!
@@boonkykilla4209 Thank you my brother in Zorz!
@@ZorzGaming I got it and it’s an awesome mothership I kinda feel zorz now lol
@@boonkykilla4209 You are assuredly Zorz! Alien Vision Man!
Alienware put out an update on the firmware that fixes eotf tracking in hdr 1000 mode and makes it AMAZING!! The update was put out June 5th and you can check monitors unboxed reviewing the updated firmware from June 12th. Thank me later lol but seriously
Oh I will thank you! I been swamped with real life and money so it’s been hard to stay on top of things but that sounds Zorz!
Looking forward to the comparison to the LG. I'm debating between these two models.
Making video now! Thank you for the patience!
what monitor arm do you have?
The ultra crazy expensive Ergotron HX heavy duty. Oddly enough I bought it because I wanted to have the option to have a bigger 49 incher even though I think that's probably too big.. It's damn good though.
@@ZorzGaming thanks, looking forward to the review!
Haha that was awesome. Ordering this bad boy when I get paid next
If you ain't highly competitive then this is a fantastic choice! Thanks for Watching!
How much refresh rate does this monitor have
165 max but you should use it at 157 with 10 bit color which you can see how to do in my big review of it!
Keep us updated with another video on your final verdict brooo
Coming soon Blue! Thanks for being patiently Zorz :)
What GPU are u using?
4090 MSI - Check out my review of it :). Thanks for watching!
Ayyyyyy another one! From what I've seen I'm not disappointed of my LG choice, considering my personal needs of course. (I'm a bit relieved lol).
I think the discrepencies in "speed" from different reviews that people are seeing might be due to response time vs input lag. higher the frames per sec, lower the input lag, so even if the screen might be a tad faster in color changes (although the difference is minuscule), the 240hz might be helping getting lower actual input lag, as long as your rig can handle the frames. Just a guess, but that would make sense.
What is wrong with them not bothering to include HDMI 2.1 though? I mean maybe if it would have included DP 2.0, but I don't understand doing all this work and then limiting ports to old technology... It's like building the coolest house and not including a door..... Or the coolest boat, but it doesn't float lol. rip
As others said, the side by side comparison would be a great addition! Great review though, not disappointed
You don't need hdmi2.1 on 3400 is why, consoles don't support ultrawide which is why The lg has 2.1 to support 4k for consoles, it then downscales the signal to 1440p
Its truly unfortunate. HDMI 2.1 woulda changed this whole thing. Thank you so much my banana friend! This isn't the review just the unboxing :).
@@DJSoulbrother It woulda helped!
@@DJSoulbrother im not sure I get what you mean, why would they need 2.1 to support 4k for consoles, consoles can output at 1440?
I might be missing something so please enlighten me, but from what I’m gathering 1440p at 240hz needs 2.1, especially if you want anything above 8 bcolors… it has nothing to do with consoles? I might be stupid, not tryina pick a fight lol
@Zorz right ahaha thanks, i’ll wait for the review
@@theREALfuriousbanana PS5 only got 1440p support last year, no doubt this monitor was already in the works before then
It's even brighter since the July 2023 firmware update which allows 1000 nit HDR. One display to rule them all....
Nice! I need to try it. I’d like to try the Samsung but I can’t afford too
i preordered diablo 4... my body is ready!! the screen looks so nice compare to the LG, wait, i didn't know the alienware only does 8 bit color? really? I thought to do any HDR it needs at least 10bit?
no its locked at 8... with dp. Full review coming.
Which do you prefer more?
I'm working on full review now... its soooo close... pros and cons..
@@ZorzGaming awesome thank you!!!
Maan I'm super torn between this Alienware or a 42 inch LG C2 TV. It's not going to be my main monitor, I'm gonna mostly use it for content consumption and occasional non-competitive gaming since I have a 240hz 1080p panel for competitive and the new one is going to sit above it. The LG is much bigger for cheaper but the QD Oled tech is just so much brighter and better overall. It's a tough one.
That is a tough one. Don’t forget about that curve. It grows in you. Woops - I mean… on you.
If you want content consumption, go for this. It's color gamut is huge, black uniformity is perfect, local dimming isn't needed because it's QD-OLED and has no backlight and because of that it's contrast is near infinite. If you want pure content consumption this monitor is one of the best things you can get other than a $2,500-$3,000 A95K.
@@tech_of_steel20official Agree exactly! This thing is the true mother ship!
Did you get any eye strain with this?
th-cam.com/video/hbj0v78WtUA/w-d-xo.html Watch this amazing video for answers :) But NO not on the DWF
@@ZorzGaming hell yeh appreciate it man that’s the thing that kinda freaked me out as it’s newer tech we don’t know wth the implications from bad manufacturing can do to our eyes I know that flickering can really mess you up especially if you got sensitive eyes enjoyed the vid keep up the great work 💯💪🏼
Thanks brother! Appreciate it! Yah we are the guinea pigs in a way. @@Baycofishing

Definitely been experimenting for days... sooo many options.. I'm kinda fond of DCI-P3. Full review tomorrow!
You should try the g8 oled
I want to badly! I will need Samsung to get there act together and send me one :)
@@ZorzGaming have a feeling it’s middle ground between this and the lg matte shit show. Look forward to seeing it brother
Ew
You should got Samsung g8 oled. It’s UW with 175 hz with 10 bit and 12 bit colour.
12 bit color is not even available in majority of monitors out there so it won’t work. Also its way pricey in terms of an oled ultra wide costing more than the Alienware.
@@califorupha1574 it is with hdmi on Samsung. I agree regarding the price. It’s crazy.
I want that. And the 240hz 4k and the 360 1440 asus. But unfortunately these companies haven’t yet figured out they need to send things to me :)
@@PvtRinzler it sure is :).
@@ZorzGaming I would love 360hz ultra wide . Would be great even if it’s IPS.
dude, im going a bit crazy i think? i could have sworn i saw you do a video on this monitor, showing a way to get it into 10bit with 144 hz somehow? but i cant find the video now? am i going crazy? was it you??? 😕
Naw... but Imma do better than that. Stay Tuned!
why is the DWF cheaper than the DW?
Freesync no gsync module
@@ViceVerseAh aah thanks. after watching a few more vids i see it now. 🙂
14:06 it does have 10bit but only on 144hz and below
aaahhh yes. :)
someone found out you can do 10bit 165hz with a custom resolution which is pretty exciting
@@killerflame2 Review coming out tomorrow for the Alienware (and the comparison with the LG) but that might not be true :)
What is this mouse? DIY?
It is the M2K mouse - I did an unboxing on it a while ago with my Dad. Amazing mouse - Lightest ever still. Very expensive but very worth it!
it looks like the Alienware is brighter than the LG
Its beyond belief brighter. Not even close.
Reddit has some really good calibration stuff for this monitor
I'm seeing... good stuff!
