Our Verdict

Dell Alienware AW2721D

Dell G2722HS

The Dell Alienware AW2721D is a different gaming monitor than the Dell G2722HS. The AW2721D has a high 240Hz refresh rate with a 1440p resolution and native G-SYNC support, while the G2722HS is an entry-level model with a 165Hz refresh, 1080p resolution, and native FreeSync support. Because of these differences, the AW2721D is much better overall as it has much better ergonomics, gets brighter, and supports HDR, which the G2722HS doesn't. However, the G2722HS has a quicker response time at 60Hz, so motion looks smoother with lower-frame-rate games.
