Do not buy this monitor...I have the exact same one and it started flickering on and off after 4-5 months. Called support and they don't care about you. Put you on hold for 2 hours, tell you its your PC and not the monitor (would also try to blame the power cord, power socket, DP cable, HDMI cable - literally everything). Will lie to you and say they don't have the option to call the manager and eventually they do. So at the moment, I have a $700 monitor that I really don't have a warranty for. There's a reason they are discounting this a lot. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. It's sad, I have owned Alienware/Dell products for a while but after what I have just gone through - I will never buy another alienware/dell branded product. If someone from Dell can reach out to me I would be glad to file my formal complaint.

Edit: Yes, literally changed everything. Even reformatted PC. Used my laptop, still the same effect. Plugged in a different monitor, 0 issues (ironically a Dell monitor).

My $250 Staples 34" LG made my eyes very tired and I don't know why. Anyone know if this monitor has any tech that eyes might be sensitive to?

I think people are saying WOLED is easier on the eyes than QDOLED but honestly I'm not 100% what's going on or where I am half the time so I could be wrong

The AW3225QF is the newer model, true 3840x2160 4K, QD-OLED and 240hz refresh - at a higher price naturally. Been wanting one for a while now myself.

The AW3423DWF is certainly a popular monitor, but i don't want to drop resolution (edit - as I use my main PC for both work and gaming)

Tbh, those are the first things I'd look into myself… they're the easiest and cheapest to check. Swap those things out, make sure the hdmi/dp cables are rated correctly and decent quality, and then if it's still a problem, you can take what you've done to troubleshoot to Dell, and I expect they won't give you any problems…

FWIW, I had a monitor flicker issue, and the cable was the problem.

Did you try a different cable? That's very likely the problem. We've had a couple Dell monitors fail at work and have not had a problem RMAing them once the basic stuff is proven.

There is supposed to be a 3 year warranty but based from experience it's more of lip service and troubleshooting.
