I use a Sonos Beam G2 sound bar for audio (eARC) and getting that to work with this monitor, and actually output Dolby Atmos instead of just stereo, was a daily struggle. I did get it to work, eventually, but then it wouldn't the next time I used it.
The effort to get this to work with my set up just wasn't worth it. I also ended up missing the flat screen of the C3, not to mention the extra real estate. When I switched back to the C3, everything just worked, no configuration required and it looked much better too. The only benefit of the AW is the refresh rate, 240 vs. 120, but I could care less. Everything else is better on the C3 and, most importantly, it just works. Oh yeah, and it's frequently less expensive too ($799@Amazon).

and better text viewable browsing on desktop. I am making my 32" oled main monitor
if i can find a vesa mount. because this pos didnt come with the adapter.
on the left will be a 42" C3 mounted to the wall and on the right possibly getting another 32" oled. I am getting too old for UW even though its UW the game res compatibility was awful and alot of games are native 4k now because of mostly with console ports. So you are stuck with 2560x1440.
Also reading txt on the 32" is quite nice. I want the 42" on my left for more screen real estate and black levels/ console gaming or using my mister FPGA on it. Having built in speakers is a dam nice feature and saves alot of wiring/plugging in. Also i am sure watching movies from a server such as plex will be superior on the 42" vs the 32"
I do have a 65" C1 and C9 but rarely use them for gaming. mostly for TV/movies /youtube
the alienware 32" though is a superior gaming monitor vs any TV OLED ,even the C4 if you can pull the FPS in games

FYI there is up to 12% cash back for Dell right now. With a cash back or Dell statement CC, and if you can mix in the 10% off Alienware coupon, this is entering super slick territory.
Potential numbers:
Price: $999.99
10% off coupon: -$100
12% cash back: -$108
2% Credit Card cash back: -$18
Credit card statement credit: -$105 or more
Up to 5000 Dell reward points = $50 in Dell dollars
Final price is under $700 after all potential discounts.
edit: F3nixPr0 found a 10% off coupon code that does work for this monitor, great find! Throw him some rep or at least a TU on comment page 7.
