QD-OLED panels could be one of the biggest game-changers in display technology and Dell has just launched pre-orders for the world's first QD-OLED gaming monitor - the Alienware AW3423DW. The price is currently set at $1,299.99, making it a pretty pricy purchase for those of you looking into buying what looks to be one of the best gaming monitors on the market right now. Alienware QD-OLED monitor pre-orders will ship  on June 1, 2022.

The Alienware 34 inch curved QD-OLED gaming monitor is remarkable; using Quantum Dot display technology, it showcases vivid colours and visuals while still retaining that deep black of an OLED panel. The display has an incredible 3440 x 1400 resolution and a 175hz refresh rate to boot.

The next level monitor is on it way, and it's even more impressive than you think. Using QD-OLED tech this monitor showcases vivid colours and visuals like we've never seen on a monitor. A shout for anyone who already has an impressive rig to showcase its beauty. Pre-orders are now open, so you can get your name on the list for June 1 shipping.

It seems Alienware thought a lot about content creators and developers, as this monitor has a key feature for them. The Creator Mode option allows you to choose between the native (DCI-P3) and the sRGB colour space, giving you control to adjust the gamma settings, which is an incredible feature. The QD-OLED Gaming Monitor also has a feature to avoid burn-in images caused by images appearing too long on screen.

Overall this is an incredible monitor; however, something of this quality may only be compatible with PC gamers, so those on console may have to give this a miss. Next-Gen consoles, impressive as they are, won't be able to support the full aspect ratio on offer here. Those on the hunt for the best curved monitor for the best gaming PC, though, should certainly listen up.

The Alienware 34 inch curved QD-OLED gaming monitor is available for pre-order now at $1,299.99 with the first units shipping on June 1, 2022.
