The Dell AW3423DWF doesn't have a black frame insertion feature to further reduce persistence blur.
The only thing I will say to that is that OLED isn't as smooth for cinematic motion as there's the BFI issue due to OLED's motion when watching 24fps movies. Anything with horizontal panning you can notice the motion judder, it's not a distraction when you get used to it but 24fps film content is definitely a better more natural feeling experience.
For example though, LG's OLED TVs have BFI but only at certain frameratesm 60, 90, 120 etc. Perfect for games, but watching 24fps cinematic content you can notice the juddering when the camera pans side to side.
The DW and DWF do not support any sort of BFI tech, as per RTINGS:
So realistically if solely consuming gaming and cinematic media, then an OLED TV that has VRR is the better option as a PC display purely for that BFI.
We may see Gen 3 of QD-OLED support it though. I have not checked if the LG WOLED monitors support BFI though.
BFI is not worth using on oled displays as it reduces already low brightness by half.The only thing I will say to that is that OLED isn't as smooth for cinematic motion as there's the BFI issue due to OLED's motion when watching 24fps movies.

This is exactly what most TVs are using to remove judder without reducing brightness.How about frame gen for cinema
madvr smooth motionThere needs to be an alternative though for 24fps cinematic content, 24fps isn't going anywhere either, HOllywood tried 60fps but audiences didn't like it and nothing felt right, 24fps is where cinema will always remains really.
You can reduce judder without introducing soap opera effect.Once you're used to the judder, you can never go back to that 'soap opera' motion interpolation imo
DELL will be blacklisting you soon anyway. Time for a name change in real life?
I'm tempted to just sell it on marketplace or something and get something else and just wait for an actual next gen QD-OLEd/POLED/WOLED model that has none of these annoyances.
