If you just spent a ton of money on a gaming PC, you’ll want a gorgeous-looking computer monitor. Modern titles like Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will always benefit from a display that can keep up with gameplay action while delivering beautiful colors and contrast, too. Fortunately, Alienware is one of the best hardware brands on the market, and we found this great offer on an Alienware screen while looking through monitor deals:

For a limited time, when you order the Alienware 27-inch AW2725QF Gaming Monitor at Dell, you’ll pay $550. At full price, this model sells for $600.

Why you should buy the Alienware AW2725QF Gaming Monitor

Demanding gameplay requires low input lag and lightning-fast response times to stay on top of all the action. Not only is this version of the Alienware AW2725QF the 4K UHD model (3840 x 2160), but it’s also an IPS screen that delivers a max refresh rate of 180Hz, plus NVIDIA G-SYNC and VESA AdaptiveSync compatibility. As far as response time, you can expect up to 0.5ms on average, with 1ms times recorded for Extreme Mode.

When displaying HD content (1920 x 1080), the AW2725QF will actually bump the refresh rate up to 360Hz. This bodes well for those who plan on connecting a PC or game console to one of the monitor’s two HDMI 2.1 ports. DisplayPort 1.4, USB-C, USB-A, and USB-B are the other ports you’ll find. There’s even a Dedicated Console Mode, which automatically calibrates picture settings for enhanced PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S gaming.

We’re not sure how long this Dell offer is going to be on the table, but we can’t think of the last time we saw Alienware deals like this one. Own one of the best monitors in the business and save $50 when you order the Alienware 27-inch AW2725QF Gaming Monitor through Dell. We have an entire list of Dell deals for you to look through, too.

Gaming on a PC can be quite a bit different than playing on a PlayStation, Xbox, or handheld console. In many cases, gaming desktops and laptops can deliver faster response times and less input lag. Gaming PCs tend to provide better graphical performance, too, along with the fact that you’ve got an entire computer that can be used for everything from web browsing and watching movies to photo editing and video calls (as long as there’s a built-in webcam).

Why you should buy the Alienware Aurora R16 gaming desktop

Compared to the Alienware Aurora R15, this latest version of the gaming desktop is around half the size without compromising power or thermals, with upgraded internals for even better performance. In addition to the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 graphics card, this configuration of the Alienware Aurora R16 features the 14th-generation Intel Core i9 processor and 64GB of RAM, which our guide on how to buy a gaming desktop says would be useful for those who will use their machine for other purposes beyond gaming, such as editing videos.
