Alienware's upcoming 34-inch gaming monitor is the first of its kind to come with Samsung's new Quantum Dot OLED panel and will cost a reasonable $1,299. The Dell-owned company debuted the monitor (AW3423DW) at CES this year and will start shipping it this spring.

While the price isn't particularly low, it's still cheaper than some of the standard OLED monitors currently on the market. For example, LG's 32-inch Ultrafine UHD OLED monitor, while not particularly ideal for gaming, will cost $3,999. Alienware's 55-inch OLED gaming monitor is currently at $2,719 on Amazon, and was first released in 2019 for $3,999 — size is a factor here, but it's still good to see a monitor using the new QD-OLED technology well under $2,000. sign.

Alienware Oled Monitor Breakdown

Alienware's QD-OLED monitors come with all the benefits of an OLED monitor, including deep blacks and bold contrast. Putting Quantum Dot technology into the mix results in higher brightness levels with more vibrant colors — the monitor must claim 99.3 percent of the DCI-P3 color space. It also has a resolution of 3440 x 1440, a refresh rate of 175Hz, as well as a brightness of 250 nits with a max of 1,000 nits. You can also expect a fast 0.1ms response rate, and support for Nvidia's G-Sync Ultimate technology.

The $1,299 price tag on this Alienware monitor gives us a hint of what kind of price we can expect for another product that uses Samsung's QD-OLED technology. Sony is expected to release its first 4K QD-OLED TV later this year, and it will be interesting to see how much it will cost.
