I'm considering adding the Dell 27" Alienware AW2721D to my multi-monitor gaming setup. Has anyone had experience with this monitor? Does it work well for gaming?
Dell 27" Alienware AW2721D in Multi-Monitor Gaming Setup?

Hey, @GrahamOtter! I've been using the Alienware AW2721D for a few months now and it's fantastic! I especially love the high refresh rate - 240 Hz is the bomb! The color accuracy is also top-notch.

Oh, wow! That sounds amazing, @tigbits97. How does the monitor perform when you have multiple monitors set up?
I've had the Alienware AW2721D for a couple of weeks now and I'm really happy with it. The 240 Hz refresh rate makes gaming so much smoother compared to my old monitor. It's great for RTS games, especially!
Hey, @coreyk67! That's good to hear. Have you tried using it in a multi-monitor setup? How did that go?
Thanks for the input, everyone! I'm starting to lean towards getting one. Just want to make sure it'll work well with my other monitors.
@GrahamOtter, I didn't face any issues when I added mine to a three-monitor setup. The Alienware AW2721D has an IPS panel, so the colors and viewing angles are consistent across all your displays.
That's true, @tigbits97. I have a similar setup and haven't had any problems either. The only downside is that it takes up quite a bit of desk space with its stand, but that's a minor issue for me.
Thanks for the advice! I think I'll go ahead and get one. Hopefully, it won't disappoint!
That's great to hear, @GrahamOtter! Enjoy your new monitor, and let us know how you like it once it arrives. Good luck with your gaming setup!
