Alienware 25 Gaming Monitor - AW2518H NVIDIA G-Sync 240Hz Refresh 1ms response time

Arrived a day early, packaging was the actual product box which is terrible to be left on a porch, the box itself seemed to have a lot of wear and tear which had me worried at the start. Where it get's a 5 star rating is this: the monitor was perfect. No damage, no BLB, no dead pixels, and to top it off the product itself was sublime. Very easy to install, visually stunning, and graphically it was bar none. With that being said let me heed some advice for any of you perspective buyers.This is a highly niche monitor for those looking to get the most performance out of a GPU that can put it out. Do not buy this if you have a mid-tier graphics card that won't be capable of making the most out of those 240hz. Also, i got lucky with my delivery. The damage to the packageing was superficial so it's nothing to complain about, some packages may be mishandled, some packages might just be DoA or have dead pixels by just factory defect. That is the risk you run when you have a 3rd party seller providing you tech. Amazon does it's best to prevent these issues, but sometimes you are just unlucky. It is by no fault of the product itself. So if you see these 1-2 star ratings and get worried if this monitor is worth it, let me lay it out for you, YES* If you are a part of the the very small niche of computer owners that not only have a machine capable of using this monitor to it's full potential, but also are purchasing with the intention of using it to it's full capacity. Save yourself some money and a get 144 hz monitor that will do just fine otherwise. For those still on board with purchasing, you just gotta hope you're one of the lucky ones and it arrives in one piece. If it doesn't, you can just return it and get a new one or go to a computer store and pay full price and personally ensure it gets home safe. I hope this has been helpful.

The media could not be loaded. This monitor is beast.It is perfect. Easy to adjust. Crystal clear, smooth. I just barely started playing games and went from a 13" Dell laptop from 2012. This will run anything you throw at it linked up to a good graphics card of course. Fortnite isn't the greatest game to showcase this monitor, and the video doesn't do justice either. You will not be disappointed with this monitor, well worth its weight in gold. This is an excellent buy for $500. Wouldn't want to pay more than that. 240hz is a huge difference, and the predator monitors look great too but i went with this one. This monitor has several characteristics I was looking for: The G-Sync / 240hz and within the 25" max you want for a 1080p x 1920 monitor anyway, this monitor has the hallmarks of a great product that will not be dated within 4 years. If you already have a 140hz then it might not be worth upgrading. If you can swing the extra bucks it is totally worth buying.

I bought this monitor back in November of 2017 for myself as a bday gift. This monitor has been with me just about everywhere I've gone and lived at. Every time someone comes over and tries the 240hz for the first time they're immediately blown away, I have some people scoff at it only being a 1080p monitor but that doesn't matter the second they start seeing how smooth and responsive it is they immediately want to get one.One day this thing just didn't turned on, come to find out that if you call Dell who is partnered with Alienware they will just full on replace the monitor for you because I believe it has life time warranty. Certain products offer this but mine died in 2020 and ever since they've sent me the new one it's been working completely fine. I cannot recommend this monitor enough, if they ever make (probably already have just haven't looked) this monitor with higher resolutions I would totally rebuy it again.

This Monitor is out of this world, with capability's of up to 240 fps for my computer games, was worth the investment
