For more information, be sure to visit our comprehensive and always up-to-date best gaming monitor buyer’s guide. Conclusion Finally, the screen has a 25% low-haze matte anti-glare coating, which eliminates reflections without making the picture appear too grainy.

Warmer than factory defaults, but far from ‘Warm’ on our unit with a high colour temperature and cool tint to the image. As it’s the case with most Alienware gaming monitors, the design has a sci-fi vibe with a premium build quality and the AlienFX RGB lighting technology with plenty of customization. The monitor can get very bright, even for well-lit rooms, and you’ll want to reduce its brightness from the maximum. The Dell Alienware AW2521HF is yet another 1080p 240Hz IPS gaming monitor with a fast 1ms response time speed and AMD FreeSync (certified as ‘G-SYNC Compatible’).The Super Fast and Extreme modes are too aggressive; they push the pixel response time too much, which results in inverse ghosting or pixel overshoot. Dell, just like other monitor manufacturers, had to create such strong and unrealistic overdrive modes to be able to advertise the ‘1ms GtG’ specification. Also of equal caliber are the peak brightness levels that these Alienware variants are capable of. Though neither of the two support HDR, both exhibit an impressively high SDR peak brightness level that exceed 400 nits. According to Tom’s Hardware the AW2518HF was able to reach a peak brightness level of 418.6 cd/m 2, while according to Rtings.com the AW2521HF exhibited an SDR Real Scene peak brightness level of 406 cd/m 2.

Note that there is always some disparity between how emissive objects (monitor) and non-emissive objects (printed sheet) appear. The representation of shades in this image depends on the camera and your own screen, it’s not designed to show exactly how the shades appear in person. It still helps demonstrate some of the relative differences between the original intended sRGB shade and what the monitor outputs, however. Full profiling and appropriate colour management on the application would provide a tighter match, our intention here is to show what can be expected in a non colour-managed environment.

The average contrast ratio with only brightness adjusted was 1054:1, a hair above the specified 1000:1 and as expected for the panel. With our ‘Test Settings’ we recorded a perfectly respectable 1063:1. The highest contrast ratio recorded on the table was 1107:1, using ‘Custom Color’ with all colour channels at their neutral position of ‘100’. The lowest contrast ratio recorded was 831:1, following the significant adjustments made for our ‘Relaxing evening viewing’ settings. The maximum luminance recorded in this table was 427 cd/m², whilst the minimum white luminance recorded was 33 cd/m². This yielded a 394 cd/m² luminance adjustment range with a good bright maximum and dim minimum. The image appears ‘rich and natural’ overall, with good variety. The gamma is slightly below target, brightening up some shades just a little, but the overall image balance is very respectable. In some rare cases, dark pixels may not quite change into brighter shades in time with the refresh rate, which can result in visible ghosting behind fast-moving objects when dark pixels are predominant in the picture (dark scenes). On Shadow of the Tomb Raider things were also presented in a rich and natural way. The environments looked in-place, with good variety and some good earthy browns and rich green shades. Some of the deep greens weren’t as lush as they could be, nor were things like bright purple flowers, red painted artifacts and some of Lara’s ornate dresses as eye-catching as we’ve seen. But they were still closer to the ‘vibrant’ vs. ‘washed out’ end of the spectrum in our view. Lara’s skin also appeared much as it should, without the overly tanned appearance that a wider gamut would provide. The strong consistency was also very evident when considering Lara’s glowing and all-too-perfect complexion. Even the best VA performers show quite pronounced shifts in saturation for such pastel shades when they’re shown towards peripheral sections of the screen rather than centrally. TN models show obvious saturation shifts vertically. In this case appropriate richness and saturation was maintained throughout.

at 24.5 inches is on the small and low-res side, but again, the monitor is designed for competitive esports gaming, where you want to be able to see the entire screen without darting your eyes around. The lower 1080p resolution ensures you can push as many frames as possible to reach that super-fast refresh rate, so while it isn't ideal for desktop work, it's all your graphics card can probably handle for gaming this smooth. And if you can't quite hit 360Hz, G-Sync is there to ensure you don't get any stutter or screen tearing. The bottom line; strong responsiveness and colour performance from a stylish and well-priced monitor. First off, In the monitors settings I switched to the custom color preset mode. In this preset I tweaked the Offset to the following settings: As shown in the image above, the monitor uses the usual RGB (Red, Green and Blue) stripe subpixel layout. This is the default expected by modern operating systems such as Microsoft Windows and Apple’s MacOS. As a Windows user you don’t need to run through the ClearType wizard, although you may still wish to adjust this according to your preferences. As a Mac user there’s no need to worry about text fringing from non-standard subpixel layouts. The subpixel layout and arrangement is normal and we had no subpixel-related concerns related to sharpness or text clarity on this model.
