Found this monitor during my research. Seems comparable to Gigabyte M34WQ IPS model for a bit less price.

It's the same panel as the Gigabyte M34WQ: https://www.rtings.com/monitor/re...byte/m34wq
I bought this one and liked it but ultimately decided that I want a curve and since I WFH and sit in front of it for 8-10 hours a day, it was worth splurging on. I ended up going with the LG 34GP83A-B. I love it and it's worth the money but I'll say that this monitor is probably like 80% as good for 1/2 the price. If you're talking about the 34" IPS Alienware I imagine its probably a pretty similar situation.

Hows this compare to the alienware curved? I had the 120 hz and have g9 now but its overkill

How does one find this info out? I'd like to learn, for future comparisons?
Alienware makes a few curved monitors. Their 34" OLED blows this out of the water, but costs triple the price.

The HP does 165hz 8bit or 144hz 10bit. I have this monitor and can confirm. I run it in 144hz 10bit mode personally.

Similar situation as yours but I started with the LG, returned it due to dead pixel and couldn't get a replacement at the time so picked up the HP instead. After a couple weeks, I got used to the flat screen and have been very happy with it ever since.
Where are you getting 34GP83A-B for $450? I have been looking.
