Rank #3 in Best Ultrawide Curved Gaming Monitor 2026: 10 Ranked by Spec Sheets
Alienware AW3425DWM 34in WQHD 180Hz Curved Monitor
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Alienware AW3425DWM is a 34-inch curved VA gaming monitor at 3440 x 1440, listed on Amazon at £229.97 with a 4.6 average across 248 ratings. It takes third place in this guide.
The finding here is that the specification sheet agrees with the headline. Where the AOC CU34G2XP/BK promises 1 ms and its own Response Time field reads "5 Milliseconds", and the KOORUI title says 180Hz while its spec field says 165 Hz, the AW3425DWM says 180 Hz in the title, in the bullet text and in the Refresh Rate field. Everything on this page — price, figures, dimensions and ratings — comes from that Amazon listing and from the reviews submitted to it. We have not tested the monitor.

Questions people ask
Does the Alienware AW3425DWM really run at 180 Hz?
Yes, as listed. The title says 180Hz, the second bullet says "a blazing-fast 180 Hz refresh rate" and the Refresh Rate field says "180 Hz". The three agree, which is not true of every monitor in this guide.
Is the 1 ms figure a measured result?
It is the figure the listing gives. The title states 1ms and the bullet repeats it as "1 ms response time (extreme mode)", so the number is tied to a specific setting rather than to every mode.
What panel does the Alienware AW3425DWM use?
A VA panel, listed with a 3000:1 native contrast ratio, HDR 400 and 95% DCI-P3 colour coverage, at 1500R curvature.
Can I connect a console to it?
The listing says 2x HDMI 2.1, 1x DisplayPort 1.4, 2x USB-A and 1x USB-B, and states support for VRR and ALLM, so console use is listed alongside PC.
How wide is the Alienware AW3425DWM in centimetres?
The Item Dimensions field gives 80.6 cm wide, 23.2 cm deep and 44.5 cm high, at 6.57 kg. That is roughly 80 cm of desk, which fits a 34-inch ultrawide.
Why does the connectivity field mention Bluetooth?
"Hardware Connectivity" is listed as "Bluetooth, DisplayPort, HDMI, USB". No Bluetooth function is described anywhere else in the listing, and the video inputs given are HDMI and DisplayPort, so treat that entry as listed rather than explained.
