Overview
The Dell Alienware AW2725DM pairs a 27-inch IPS panel at 2560 × 1440 with a refresh rate of up to 180 Hz. It offers 109 ppi pixel density, 400 nits typical brightness (450 nits peak), 1000:1 static contrast and 95% DCI-P3 coverage. Variable refresh covers 48–180 Hz, quotes 1 ms response and supports FreeSync and G-Sync. Inputs include 2× HDMI 2.1, 1× DisplayPort 1.4 and 2× USB-A. The stand offers 110 mm of height adjustment, swivel and pivot. There are no speakers, and it weighs 4.23 kg without the stand. It suits players who want smooth motion for fast games.
