Is it possible to cancel my moniter order from dell (alienware 3d monitor)?
  2 / 2    
I ordered one in the UK from Dell. It came up with an estimated date of about 1.5 weeks. But it arrived less than 48 hours later. So the estimated date doesn't always reflect reality.

[quote name='planet-earth' post='1040645' date='Apr 16 2010, 07:33 AM']Thanks alot.... but also I would like to know which one is better in 3d the acer or the alienware...cz I'm intrested in the 3D more than the 2D ??..[/quote]

The reviews i have seen, have the AW has the better build quality and the ports etc, but the Acer is bigger, has a faster response time and in 3d it is the better monitor. In 2d the Acer needs the driver found through windows update, once that is intalled the 2D quality is excellent.

So i suppose if you want build quality the AW wins (£100 more expensive though) if you want absolute performance the Acer scrapes it.

The reviews are all over the place. One person had both side by side on these forums and prefers the AW, not just for build quality. It probably means there isn't much in it.

By the way, the AW2310 can be had for £359 direct from dell if you use a voucher code which makes the difference a bit smaller.

Is the Acer really bigger by the way? It is misleadingly sold as a 24" but it is actually less. Some places quote 23.6" but I still don't know what the true viewable size is.

Tha Acer is a smidge under 24@23.6 inch whilst the AW is a true 23 inch monitor. Both are great monitors but for value for money the Acer wins it for me.
