Another powerful Dell monitor that includes 1080p pixel resolution and a 240Hz refresh rate, which is outstanding for the price. It also includes an IPS panel and adaptive sync technology among other features.

The key to this monitor is that 240Hz refresh rate. Most monitors have an average refresh rate of around 60Hz, and even when you're looking for something higher than that most of the time you're looking for something around 144Hz. Going any higher usually means a huge jump in price, but this Alienware monitor defies those standards and gets you to 240Hz without driving you to bankruptcy in the process. If you're a gamer and you're into fast-paced or competitive games like Call of Duty or Halo infinite, you will really appreciate the jump in the refresh rate.

The rest of the monitor's features aren't bad at all, either. You get a 24.5-inch screen with a 1920 x 1080 pixel resolution. It uses IPS panel technology for great color accuracy and viewing angles. It also has adaptive sync tech. The AMD FreeSync Premium tech will work with your AMD graphics cards for a better experience and less screen tearing. It is also Nvidia G-Sync compatible so you can use a DisplayPort connection with a modern graphics card to make the same feature work with your Nvidia graphics card.
