Dell Alienware AW2521HF
ASUS TUF Gaming VG258QM
The ASUS TUF Gaming VG258QM and the Dell Alienware AW2521HF perform quite similarly overall, but they use different panel types. While they're both great gaming monitors, the Dell has a bit of an edge. Its IPS panel provides wider viewing angles, so the image stays accurate from the side. It also has faster response times at both its max refresh rate and 60Hz, while the ASUS performs significantly worse at 60Hz than it does at its max refresh rate. One downside is that the Dell doesn't support HDR, but the ASUS doesn't deliver a great HDR experience anyway, so it shouldn't be the deciding factor.
