The Hz wars have come, and Alienware is beaming down from its spaceship to put its own foot into the refresh rate arena with a pair of large, frankly beautiful-looking displays that pack a wallop in the QD-OLED gaming monitor scene. Boy, howdy, that curved 32-inch, 4K QD-OLED monitor is a real doozy.

For those not used to curved monitors (like this writer), the 32-inch, 1700R display didn’t take much or any getting used to.This QD-OLED Alienware Monitor is a Real Curveball CCShare SubtitlesOffEnglishThe 27-inch QD-OLED monitor pushes a 360Hz refresh rate.Photo: AlienwareAdvertisementSpeaking of which, the other big monitor out of Alienware is a 27-inch 360Hz QD-OLED that’s pushing a whopping 360Hz refresh rate. Remember that ultra-fast refresh rates don’t matter for most competitive games past the 240Hz mark, but it’s still a hefty gaming monitor with 0.03ms response time. What matters more than refresh rate is color, and these QD-OLED may have a jump on other big monitor releases like Advertisementannounced prior to CES. If you’re a bit confused on what’s the distinction between QD-OLED and just a regular OLED, know that it’s based on using quantum dots for colors, rather than a QLED that uses these same dots to enhance the screen’s backlight.
