alienware AW3418DW Availability in the UK?

All setup. No dead or stuck pixels.

Only annoying thing is my laptop can only output HDMI at 50hz. I think I'll need to grab a USB-C to DP to get more Hz. That or build my desktop sooner.
 
Haven’t checked glow yet, I’ll have a look later but tbh a little glow is fine with me. It’s IPS.
 
Got mine, no dead pixels and used the setting on TFT Central for setup.

I am not sure if I like it to be honest, its a lot more narrow than my last monitor, but the ultra wide is cool.

I've taken a hit in gaming and had to lower the settings down for my GTX980.
 
Some pictures. It's very good.

Just need a desktop to unleash the full potential.

Lamp on (standard lighting for me)

Mine also arrived, have some cable management to sort out and will have to modify my wall mount so it's not visible with the monitor on it but really happy with the monitor in general. OC'd to 120 without any flicker issues and has been happily running for a few hours now.

The stand is beautiful though, just a shame it's a little too big for my desk or I'd use it in a heartbeat!

Already set one of the monitor key shortcuts to show/hide FPS.. handy feature!

Well mine is meant to be delivered on the 14th according to the order form I got in an email yet looking on the web site it still says "Confirmed" and the "Shipped" box is yet to get a tick next to it. A little worrying as I've taken the day off work for this...

You should get a "Syncreon" e-mail confirming delivery day e.g. Planned delivery on 13/12/2018 of your Dell order XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Mine was Scheduled on the Dell site with an ETA of 11/12 but arrived today. Was ordered on Sunday.
 
I've just looked in the spam folder to see if that's catched it but there's nothing there. I've a sinking feeling that it's not going to arrive tomorrow. I'll give them a bell in the morning and chase it up.
 
Phones make it look worse. Use your eyes to judge it.

When taking a photo try to adjust the exposure down quite a bit until it looks like it does in person.

Speaking personally, if that was mine I would not be happy and I would be asking for another one.

I'm not happy, not in the slightest. I'll be onto Dell first thing :mad:

I know what you mean about the phone camera, but when I look at the monitor especially from different angles it looks 10 times worse.
