This 27-inch QHD gaming monitor uses a QD-OLED panel with a 280Hz refresh rate and a 0.03ms response time at a notably affordable price. Video inputs are two HDMI 2.1 ports and one DisplayPort 1.4 (with DSC), all supporting the full 1440p @ 280Hz HDR signal with VRR. There is no USB-C video input; instead the downstream USB-C is a data port that also delivers 15W for charging accessories. A USB 3.2 Gen 1 hub (one USB-B upstream, one USB-A downstream, one USB-C downstream) and a 3.5mm audio line-out complete the layout.
Alienware’s 27″ 280Hz QD-OLED with dual HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4, a USB 3.2 hub (incl. 15W USB-C) and audio out.
