A 39" Tandem OLED Monitor (5K2K, RGB-Stripe, Glossy) for ???? $1099?

AW__Tom | 06/03/2026

Alienware has unveiled 2 new OLED gaming monitors with RGB-stripe subpixel layout at #Computex2026 First up is the Alienware AW3926QW, a 39-inch ultrawide monitor featuring a 5120×2160 (5K2K) resolution and native 165Hz refresh rate switchable to 330Hz mode at lower 2560x1080 resolution. Notably, it uses a pure RGB-stripe subpixel layout without a white subpixel, promising improved text clarity and higher colour volume compared with traditional WOLED displays. The glossy screen finish also helps preserve OLED's inky blacks and perceived contrast in bright-room viewing conditions. Alienware also showcased the new AW3426DW, the successor to the original AW3423DW monitor that helped kickstart the whole OLED gaming monitor era. Key upgrades include a higher 280Hz refresh rate, improved coating for deeper & more neutral black levels under ambient light, increased scratch resistance, DisplayHDR True Black 500 certification, and a new RGB-stripe subpixel structure designed to reduce colour fringing and improve text rendering. The "Includes Paid Promotion" Label in this video refers to the sponsorship by Alienware. ======================== **Click Below to SUBSCRIBE for More Reviews, Sneak Peeks & Tips: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcCYOO2uYPnG-21WDOWdwew?sub_confirmation=1 ======================== VISIT HDTV Test http://www.hdtvtest.co.uk/ FOLLOW US! https://bsky.app/profile/hdtvtest.bsky.social https://www.threads.net/@hdtvtest https://www.tiktok.com/@hdtvtest https://www.instagram.com/hdtvtest https://twitter.com/vincent_teoh https://www.patreon.com/hdtvtest

If I had a video card that could run it I would seriously consider the 39 inch monitor, pretty sure if I plugged in my RX580 would just burst into flames.  That would be so nice for racing games.  If I win the lotto (meaning I can buy a new video card and PC) that monitor would certainly be high on my list of ones to get.

I taste like crunchy toejam sauteed in vinegar.

3:26 - Definitely need the improvements on scratch resistance.

Alienware OLED screens can arrive PRE-scratched in their packaging.

╥﹏╥

 

And we finally get built-in KVM...at least on the 39-inch. (don't know why he didn't mention it in the video)

What a crazy display. I've already upgraded my Alienware 34" ultrawide to the 34" OLED ultrawide less than a year ago. Might have to wait for display tech to advance even more before upgrading again!
