U can check the demo set in dell funan. For me, it's noisy.

not very noisy quite acceptable. however most sets have coil whine issues, I exchanged mine because it was way too loud.

my PC fan "noise" is louder and I barely notice the DWF fan (or even at all). coil whine on the other hand very noticeable to me.
and by "noise" it is very low noise where I have to actively notice in pitch quiet environment with sensitive ears

High chance to get one with coil whine though as you mentioned

Dont think i can stand monitor having any noise, too distracting.

aw3423dwf not for me.

someone replaced AW3423DW fan with a noctua fan

Samsung could have nailed it. Stupid ports and unnecessary tv OS for g8 oled.

Samsung never in my list as gaming monitor. But somebody just love it

This will void warranty? It will be super dusty for sure.

Actually don't know why an active cooling solution is required. The DW version had the GSync module that requires active cooling, which is quite dumb (referring to the GSync module) but makes sense. The DWF don't come with the module and uses FreeSync. OLED TVs, laptop monitors, and mobile device displays don't seem to use an active cooling solution. Not sure why PC versions are so "special".

still got to wait longer if want a no-frills monitor

I think maybe they anticipate some higher end GPU can really push very high fps and further increased the monitor refresh rate to another level need more cooling
