Another proove of the variable overdrive on the AW2521HF: look a this YT review, he tells that there is no overshoot in extreme mode overdrive (while he is wondering about the reason - but it is obvious): https://youtu.be/Z5vO-3guob4?t=110

It has stereo speakers but the sound quality is poor as you would expect with built in speakers. I tested the L/R in windows and my left speaker is louder than my right speaker but i think that is due to the fact that the left side of the monitor is closer to the wall.

The issue I have is that ...

Hey guys,
with my VG259QM the speakers are very quiet and the sound is only from the left side. Can someone with the same monitor hear whether the sound comes from left and right or are they only installed on one side?

74tm and axaro1: thanks for clarifying. I read somewhere that it didn't come with a displayport cable which confused me.

Also how do you guys like the monitor so far?..how's the input lag on it? anyone ...

EXTREME OD is 3.4-3.5ms g2g. The unique DP scaler on the alienware monitor chooses the best OD setting(variable overdrive) which minimizes ghosting and overshoot, and it decided to choose 3.5ms g2g. Which is probably the optimal setting withuot any overshoot. Whereas the MSI MAG251rx has 5-6 ...
