Dell Alienware is expanding its OLED lineup with two new monitors that target different segments of the gaming market. The AW3226Q brings high-resolution visuals to a larger screen, while the AW2527HX pushes refresh rates to extreme levels for competitive play. These releases offer buyers distinct choices between image fidelity and speed, depending on their specific gaming needs.

The panel reaches a peak brightness of 1000 nits and offers a 0.03ms gray-to-gray response time. Dell has priced the monitor at $699.99.
