What customers say
The Alienware AW2724HF earns exceptional praise primarily for its unparalleled speed and responsiveness, making it a benchmark for competitive gaming. Users consistently highlight the fluid motion delivered by the 360Hz refresh rate and fast IPS panel, reporting a tangible advantage in fast paced titles due to superior motion clarity. Build quality is robust, featuring a premium feel and ergonomic stand. While color accuracy out of the box is surprisingly good for a high speed panel, the 1080p resolution on a 27-inch screen is a noted trade-off. This resolution reduction impacts general use and slightly tempers the value perception for those not solely focused on achieving the absolute lowest latency for esports performance.
Know before you buy
Yes, the difference is significant for competitive gamers. The 360Hz refresh rate provides much smoother motion and reduced input lag, which is particularly beneficial in fast-paced shooters where tracking moving targets is critical.
While this monitor is officially certified for AMD FreeSync Premium, it is compatible with NVIDIA G-Sync via DisplayPort. You can enable G-Sync compatibility in the NVIDIA Control Panel to prevent screen tearing.
At 27 inches, 1080p resolution has a lower pixel density than 1440p, which means you may notice individual pixels if you sit very close to the screen. However, this resolution is chosen specifically to maximize frame rates, making it the preferred choice for competitive esports titles.
The IPS panel provides superior color accuracy and wider viewing angles compared to TN or VA panels. This ensures that colors remain consistent even if you are not looking at the screen head-on.
While the IPS panel offers good color reproduction, this monitor is primarily engineered for gaming speed. If your professional work requires high color gamut coverage or higher resolution, you might prefer a monitor specifically calibrated for creative tasks.
To achieve the maximum 360Hz refresh rate, you should use the included DisplayPort cable. While HDMI is supported, DisplayPort is generally recommended for high-refresh-rate gaming to ensure full bandwidth compatibility.
