I'd recommend waiting if you can. New Oled monitors were announced by different brands and these older ones will definitely drop by a lot more. I'm actually returning my Neo G9 I got for BF from Amazon and waiting on the new ones they announced last month.

I bought this back when they first released. Gaming looks great but the desktop text clarity does bother me some. I was using a 1440p 165hz HP Omen 27i before and it was much sharper/clear for text compared to this. As others mentioned, it's not bad but it is noticeable and kind of a bummer considering this monitor cost more than 2x as much as my previous one (since I bought my previous one brand new when it released too).

The minor annoyance aside - the thing that does greatly bother me is the coil whine. It ... is ... IRRITATING. Sometimes I can calm it down some by enabling/disabling the monitor's built-in lighting effects. For mine it gets louder when there is less image being lit up by the pixels. Screens that are predominantly black... higher coil whine sound. I pretty much have to wear my headphones to help me ignore it.

Unreal I bought this last month and am ONE day out of Dell's 30-day price guarantee. For anyone else this is really good deal on an excellent OLED gaming monitor, emphasis on gaming monitor as this is NOT a great daily driver for desktop work.

Just be patient. More details will be revealed closer to launch. I think a dead giveaway could be that the old panel from Alienware was 165hz and the new one is 175hz.
You have that backwards. The "old" DW monitor is 175Hz. This new DWF is 165Hz.

I've been using the AW3423DW since May for over 40 hours a week. I don't autohide the taskbar. I program, write documents, watch movies, and game on it with no weird issues or burn in. The first thing I did was disable "eco" mode in the panel settings, and I made sure all the panel protection stuff was enabled. Unless you're going to consume content (movies, videos, games), this is not the monitor for you. This monitor handles motion content like no other. All other monitors look like a blurry mess compared to these OLEDs thanks to the pixel response time.

Clearly says 175hz new MSI

Old Dell Alienware is limited to 165hz plus it lacks HDMI 2.1 so it's limited to 100hz over HDMI.

Again the original or 'old' model AW3423DW G-Sync has a 175 Hz refresh and the 'new' model AW3423DWF FreeSync has a 165 Hz refresh and both lack HDMI 2.1.

How do I use that? I have a cap1 card I haven't used yet ... looked all over website nothing there
It's not a card savings, its their shopping browser plug in: https://capitaloneshopping.com/

I left the monitor in my cart and today got an email that they would do 30%. I still haven't decided because built-in speakers are a big deal for me on a monitor and this one doesn't have them.

Also, the C1 shopping thing isn't cash back, its credit to spend at another store. You could buy gift cards to stores but its not really actual cash back.

I'll please take that code if you're not using it.

It's not a code, just get the Capital One Shopping browser extension, leave the monitor in your cart for a day or two and they'll likely email you a 30% offer. You can do 20% instantly and not risk missing the sale.

I'll try this tonight, thanks. Withe the info about the MSI being $800 I wouldn't feel too badly about this monitor with another 20% off.

I've added the extension. I see 3 coupon codes but have not seen anything about 20 or 30% yet. I'll keep poking around - appreciate the heads up on this regardless

Anyone who ordered actually see the capital1 cash back show up in their account? I purchased this monitor a week ago and just got it but cap1 is still not showing I earned any cash back for the transaction….

Ordered mine yesterday and it showed up as "Pending" under the "My Rewards & Savings" tab today.
I heard on Reddit that if it doesn't show up after 30 days, contact them with the trip number and maybe a screenshot of the discount being activated and they will get you your money no problem.
