    Literally seconds. Wow. If I were quicker at identifying boats...

    3070s as well... I wasn't fast enough to grab one though.

    alienware AW3418DW Availability in the UK?

    The one I was using was the one supplied. I switched it to another dp cable I had (can't remember exactly where it came from), and the flickering stopped. Today I switched back to the original cable, and there was no flickering. So maybe it was just that the cable wasn't seated perfectly? Either...

    A different cable seems to have done the trick - thanks for the tip :) The backlight bleed is kind of annoying, but I think I can live with it. Better at the bottom corners than the top. Hardly ideal for a £900+ screen tho...

    Okay, I've set the beast up - quite a slick setup process. First impressions are... Not great tbh :/ Firstly, there is a significant amount of backlight bleed in the bottom left and (particularly) bottom right corner. Pretty noticeable on a black background even during the day. Top corners...

    Well, mine's been delivered. The odyssey is over! The box is blood enormous - guess that's to account for the curve of the screen? I'll post impressions later, after I get a chance to set it up.

    I got it at a discount originally (970), but I was going to ask for further reduction based on the fact it's been delayed 3 times.

    Mine's also due for delivery on Monday. About damn time... Kind of annoyed at myself that I didn't get around to asking Dell for a discount now though.

    Yep :/ 13th here too. Going to chat to them on Monday. Starting to feel like an indefinite delay.

    Yeah, mine had a shipping date of yesterday, but hasn't been shipped. So it's going to be delayed again I guess. I hope yours is shipped, but I wouldn't be holding my breath tbh...

    With the limited supply, I'd imagine they're being less liberal with discounts now. I ordered a couple weeks after you, and £970 was as low as I could get then after a few attempts. Seems it's gone even further now. Cracking deal you got tho!

    No idea on stock dates - would like to know myself. The "dodgy" website is a re-seller of returned / refurbished parts. There's a couple of them out there.

    Well, mine's (finally) been pushed back - from 23/05 to 29/05. Given that there are people on here who ordered before me and have been pushed back to the 30th, I doubt that will be the last time it shifts. Wish I'd gone ahead and bought one for £1100 a month ago tbh...

    Damn, sorry Chappie :( Not looking good. Mine still says 23rd, but I'm assuming it'll get pushed back at some point in the next few days.

    Hope it arrives cogrady - let us know either way! Mine still says 23/05, but I'm not holding my breath either. I almost bought one direct from a retailer a month ago, for £150 over what I will pay for the Dell-direct shipment (if it ever arrives), and I kind of wish I'd followed through with it...

    10/4? as in, 5 weeks ago?!

    alienware AW3418DW Availability in the UK?

    Can't really me mention competitors here, but if you browse the web then there's a "very" good chance that you'll find it, at Dell's non-discounted price.

    Any new ultra wides on the horizon?

    The Alienware seems the best on the market right now, though the Asus PG35 at 200Hz could be better, when it is available in a few months, if you like a VA panel. Doesn't seem to be much around in the form of HDR at UW with g-sync at the moment though. Personally I was looking for a ~38"...

    Not looking good then... Especially when they're still in stock at UK retailers. I'd be fuming in your shoes Chappie!
