I love my 35" Monoprice 100hz UW. Got it for 299, don't see any reason to pay more for an Alienware monitor of the same size with 20hz better refresh rate.

It works fine for my gaming needs, but I grew up gaming on 19" CRT and LCD's with slow ass response time.

I got mine for 550 earlier this year.

At this price you should just get the LG 34GP83A

This isn't a bad price; its a fairly old monitor so I think the price is fair for what it is. That said, I would much prefer to buy it directly from Dell for ease of warranty replacement. I imagine this monitor will hit the sub $600 range again this holiday season.

It's definitely not the best price and I picked one up for 600 before tax in June. The deals on these are fairly rare though with November 2020 being the last time it matched this price before the June deal.

Could be some upcoming holiday discounts and could be near end of life with a 2022 model (probably for much more) but it's not a bad price for someone looking for one now.

This is about $100-150 more than it's been on sale for. Once it's back to $600, this will be a good deal.

I've had this monitor for 2 years, paid just over $730 for it... I am still enamored by it and it impresses people. The only thing I dislike is it is bigger than my 1080 GTX can handle on newer games, and I can't upgrade my GPU without paying scalpers outrageous prices...

I got one about 2 years ago from warehouse deals with some random 20% off coupon. I paid like 390 for it. It's an amazing monitor, don't let anyone fool you. The brightness is absolutely perfect and I run mine about 50% all the time. I'm not sure if this is a good price because it's a little bit old now but for my purposes it's amazing.

No USB C. Also if you want an arm for it, you have to get the HX ergotron. Nothing else will hold it without sagging.

Not worth it. Pay a little bit more for the LG 34GP83A-B or the ASUS XG349C. Higher brightness, higher refresh rate, and wider color gamut.

Ignoring price for a moment, a nice ultrawide or a 48in/55in OLED like the LG C1?

Just curious about OLED disadvantages for computer use.

Most probably aren't getting this for a console, but it doesn't have HDMI 2.0 ports so it can't do 120hz at 1440p on Xbox. It needs DP to do that and Xbox doesn't have that. Just throwing it out there.
