Alienware second-gen 34 QD-OLED was already a decent deal at its list price, but a staggering $120 discount a few months after release makes it a no-brainer.

Alienware's second-gen 34 QD-OLED, the AW3425DW, is down to its lowest price ever on Prime Day, saving you a solid $120 off its already reasonable list price. Just about every monitor brand under the sun has their take on various QD-OLED panels, but we almost never see discounts this low. In addition to a souped-up QD-OLED panel, the new 34 QD-OLED also comes with a searing 240Hz refresh rate, vastly outpacing the original model.

What makes this a good gaming monitor deal

OLED has firmly been in the early adopter phase among PC monitors for the past few years, but that's starting to change, and there's no better evidence of that than the AW3425DW. When the first version of this monitor was released a few years ago, it retailed for $1,400 — now, you get an improved version with better panel quality and a higher refresh rate for less than half the price. Even compared to the going rate of OLEDs today, which is around $800 to $1,000, Alienware is offering an excellent price on the AW3425DW.

I've been using it for a few months as my primary gaming and productivity monitor, and it's an absolute treat. Although I largely wrote off the benefits of a 240Hz refresh rate initially, it's become a must-have for me since using the AW3425DW. It adds that extra layer of smoothness that feels even more premium than the typical 144Hz refresh rate you find on gaming displays. Combined with the immersive 21:9 aspect ratio, it's been a peak gaming experience in everything from Doom: The Dark Ages to Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth.

Alienware also leads the pack when it comes to OLED support, offering a three-year warranty that covers burn-in and a slew of mitigation features. The Alienware 34 QD-OLED is a legendary gaming display, and trust me, you'll be kicking yourself if you let this deal pass you by.
