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.
I read on some forums (prad.de and overclockers.ru) that this monitor has some sort of cross-hatch. Is this your experience? Do all the monitors with the same panel or coating have these problems? This makes choosing a monitor so difficult :(
Does your TV have any option that reads "1:1" or "Pixel aspect" or something similar?
Check the aspect ratio options and see if there's other settings that aren't 16:9, 4:3 or Zoom. Try them.
XoR: I just learned by reading your post and searching for "red push" that it's exactly what I have, and even the service menu is not enough to fix it :(
Thanks for the info!
Hello Ruahrc. I guess that's the case then. I noted down all settings in their defaults, and then confirmed that the Reset function did reset every setting. It's surely difficult to judge colors without the aid of a colorimeter. The best I could do was to connect my PC monitor to the computer...
Hello guys.
I have an LCD TV that has poor color. It's a no-brand chinese TV. With only the basic controls (Contrast-Brightness) I could not fix the poor color. What I call poor color? for example, the Gradient here has R/G/B tinting everywhere, and the gamma is closer to 1 than of 2.2 ...
Monitors are not limited to a specific country, as they don't need to comply to NTSC/PAL/etc like old TVs. In this case you just need the plug adapter. Good luck!
Those gradients you see in games don't have anything to do with the monitor. It's probably the video card compressing the textures to fit their VRAM, or the source has banding to start.
It's great you got that Dell though!
Input lag is not part of the specs. Just cross your fingers and hope for the best! If you don't like it, you can maybe return it. At least you have a TV!
Why won't you have power saving features? The bit depth has nothing to do with it. (unless you can point me to documentation that says it does, which sounds strange)
All 10-bit monitors are 8-bit plus dithering anyway, so all your video card needs to support is 8-bit.
Then, how can a monitor...
That's the Anti-glare Coating. It's a screen surface treatment to reduce glare. You can't remove it by configuring anything. You need to tear it out, which is dangerous to your monitor.
I have the Dell U2211h and it's better than any TN screen I've seen. Viewing angles are better and color reproduction is better too, even if this is a 6-bit+AFRC IPS screen.
For me, the only pros TN has is the reduced AG coating. Besides, it's cheaper for me to buy an IPS panel from Dell's site...
You'll be disappointed when you don't see any changes and the colorimeter doesn't solve your problems. For the money, you might even get a new monitor to play with!
