Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

NEC 23" IPS EA231WMi
Man, I love NEC. Emailed them about my backlight issues with a few attached images of it and now they're sending me a replacement as well paying for the return shipping of my current display :D. And I didn't have to wait for half an hour to speak with someone in Bangalore who didn't know... -

NEC 23" IPS EA231WMi
Yeah, now that I've tested it some more the main problem with this display is the backlight bleed and uneven brightness. About 1/3 of the left side of the screen is very slightly darker and the bottom two corners have fairly noticeable bleed. But, the IPS glow and tinting is light years better... -

NEC 23" IPS EA231WMi
Hey, so I recently picked one of these up and I'm really liking it so far. But the glow and I think blacklight bleed is pretty noticeable. Is this more or less normal?: The last two pictures are little exaggerated, but the first picture is pretty accurate. The bleed is even noticeable in... -

U2311H or EA231WMI
I recently returned my U2311H and got an NEC. No way I'm going back. Response time is basically exactly the same and no tinting issues aside from some bad white glow (and I think backlight bleed). But even with those deficiencies I like the NEC's image quality more. -

22" IPS monitors?
Haha, sorry I was just trying to assuage any fears you had by arguing that 22"@1080p is not as high of a DPI as you might think (you can also change DPI settings in Windows). And I already own a nice NEC thankyouverymuch. -

22" IPS monitors?
Supposedly the HP ZR22W is S-IPS. And I don't think the DPI is that high on a 1080P 22" monitor. The DPI is even higher on my Macbook Pro (15.4" @1440x900). I think the U2211H and the ZR22W have a nice DPI. Edit: According to the data sheet the zr22w is: S-IPS (UH-IPS technology for improved... -

Dell U2311H
Wow, glad you found a fix! Unfortunately, I only have DVI or else I might actually keep it. Edit - Huh. Weird. I just tried using VGA and there are no pin stripes. Of course, the now quality is a lot worse... Man this is annoying -

Dell U2311H
Interesting. Yeah my pinstripes run up and down the screen, never diagonal or across the screen. As far as I can tell, the stripes are always there but really only visible depending on the contrast and the color. In terms of how they look, they do bear a resemblance to the old OS X pinstripe UI... -

Dell U2311H
Yeah the tinting actually isn't too bad on mine. The first one I got was really really terrible though. However, if anyone has OS X and is considering this monitor I'd have to advise against it. ...But man, if the NEC has the same problem I will be so unhappy :( -

Dell U2311H
Yeah, I actually just ordered an NEC (found a decent deal) and am returning the Dell. Really unfortunate. By the way, wah, in your previous posts you said you had horizontal pinstripes. I actually have vertical pinstripes. Really strange. -

Dell U2311H
Wah, I tested it out in Windows 7 and sure enough there's no pinstriping on solid colors going going on. I'm thinking of posting about this on an Apple mailing list- it's probably the closest you can get to Apple's engineers. -

Dell U2311H
Wah, I have the same issue on my Macbook Pro. I can make it go away sometimes by changing the contrast/brightness, but of course it depends on what the color is. Calibrating it also helped a little, but I'm not using hardware assisted calibration so it's not perfect (just used the one from...
