In addition to the AW3926QW, Alienware has some other new gaming monitors in store, including a 34" QD OLED monitor with RGB subpixel layout and two new LCD monitors. The screens should be released this summer.
The AW3426DW is Alienware's new 34" QD OLED monitor with 3440x1440 pixel resolution, following displays such as the AW3423DW and AW3425DW. Versus those screens, the AW3426DW has a newer OLED panel with RGB stripe sub-pixel layout, which solves color fringing. The panel also features a better anti-reflective coating and higher peak brightness of 1300cd/m². Like all Alienware OLED monitors, it has a 3-year burn-in warranty, and there is also Dolby Vision HDR support.
The screen has a refresh rate of 280Hz, slightly lower than screens from many other brands, which announced an RGB QD OLED monitor with this panel at the beginning of this year. Connectivity is also easier. The AW3426DW has HDMI 2.1 and a USB hub, but no USB-C for display.
The AW3426DW therefore has a friendly recommended retail price of 822 euros. Other RGB QD OLED monitors that are (or have been) for sale cost more than 1000 euros. The AW3426DW will be available from June 25.
Alienware AW3426DWM and AW3226DM: cheaper LCD monitors
The Alienware AW3426DWM and AW3226DM are cheaper gaming monitors based on an LCD panel. Both have a 1500R curved VA panel and a maximum refresh rate of 240Hz. The AW3426DWM is a 34" monitor with 3440x1440 pixel resolution, the AW3226DM is a 32" model with 2560x1440 pixels and a regular 16:9 ratio.

The screens show 95 percent of the DCI-P3 range and support Dolby Vision HDR, although the peak brightness is not high at 450cd/m². Dell specifies a 3000:1 contrast value. The displays have a USB hub and HDMI 2.1 ports, but no USB-C for display.

The AW3226DM has a suggested retail price of 304 euros, the AW3426DWM would cost 365 euros. Both screens will be available from July 9.
AW3926QW: 39" ultrawide with 5120x2160 pixels
In addition to the above three models, Alienware also announced the AW3926QW, a 39" RGB tandem WOLED monitor with 5120x2160 pixel resolution. This monitor should be released in October for an as yet unknown euro price. Tweakers wrote an extensive preview about the AW3926QW earlier this week.
