Best Alienware deals: Gaming PCs, laptops, and monitors

Alienware is known for making some of the best gaming laptops, gaming PCs, headsets, and even gaming chairs, although that shouldn’t be a surprise given that the brand has been around for decades now.

If you really value an incredibly fast refresh rate for something like competitive esports, then the aptly named Alienware AW2524H is what you’re looking for. It can do an incredible 500Hz refresh rate, which we’re not even sure is possible without having an RTX 4090 and bumping all the graphical specs and resolution as low as they can go. That probably is the case given it’s a smaller 25-inch screen where a lower resolution doesn’t matter as much,

This Alienware 32-inch gaming monitor comes in at QHD resolution, which is halfway between Full HD and 4K resolution. This will make things sharp and contrasty, and a 175Hz refresh rate will ensure you can get through even the most action-packed games without having to deal with image tearing or lag.

You also get an excellent Intel Core i9 14900HX processor, 16GB of DDR5 RAM, and 1TB of storage, so more than enough to give you an overall smooth experience.

Everybody loves a good set of clicky mechanical switches, but if you’re the sort of person who doesn’t like the really tall keys you tend to find in most keyboards, this low-profile keyboard from Alienware is an excellent option. It uses the same MX Red switches you might be familiar with, so it still feels the same, plus it has both anti-ghosting and N-key rollover, which are excellent. While not as big a deal, it does also have media keys, so if you like having that sort of quick shortcut, that’s another big positive of Alienware’s mechanical keyboard.

A gaming headset is a great way to keep in touch with your friends while you play. The Alienware AW520H gaming headset may be wired, but it’s still an excellent option if you want a high-end set of headphones for a relatively budget-friendly price. It has a built-in microphone for outgoing communications, as well as Dolby Atmos, Surround Sound, and Stereo Sound options to help immerse you in the game and incoming communications.
