If you prioritize top-notch gaming and media consumption and are willing to invest more, the Dell Alienware with its exceptional contrast and high HDR brightness will deliver an immersive experience.

However, if you're on a budget and seeking a balance between gaming, productivity, and general use, the Innocn offers a good value with its solid performance for a range of tasks. The choice between the two depends on your willingness to pay a premium for the Dell's superior display technology and whether your usage leans more towards gaming and media or a mix of everyday activities.

Allen Ngo | June 2023
"The monitor is a sweet spot for gamers who want something faster than 165 Hz while keeping the benefits of fast response times and relative affordability. The VA panel is now more competitive against many IPS options."
