Dell Alienware AW2524H
This is what matters about Dell Alienware AW2524H.
About
A 500Hz Fast IPS panel built around a dedicated hardware NVIDIA G-SYNC module — that module also caps its HDMI ports at 240Hz, with the full 480Hz-native/500Hz-overclocked ceiling reachable only via DisplayPort 1.4. A laptop pushing this monitor to its limit can hit CPU thermal throttling before the panel becomes the bottleneck.

Pushing a gaming laptop to sustain 500 FPS to feed this monitor at its native ceiling triggers rapid CPU thermal throttling, which paradoxically produces worse real-world performance than running the same laptop at 240Hz — the community's advice is to cap the monitor profile at 360Hz for compact laptop systems.
