Results from my THIRD VG278H.
Ok, here is the photo from the day of purchase (Nov 29):
Then, 3 days later (Dec 2):
Like a freaking clockwork! :mad:
This leads me to conclude that pretty much every single monitor is affected more of less. I can't believe ASUS let that slide...
Troub- are...
Sorry to be the bearer of the bad news, but this seems to be a defect affecting the whole batch of monitors that develops over time. Please compare photos from yesterday and today.
In the photo yesterday there are no artifacts in the backlight bleeding:
Just one day later there is that...
The bleed is really not as bad as last the image I posted. I used extra exposure on the camera to highlight any imperfections. The image bleed looks like 5x the brightness of what the eye sees. I can only see some bleed after staring at the black background for 10+ seconds straight...
Here is the backlight of my second VG278H:
Not the best out there (there are some $200 monitors that have better backlight uniformity), but definitely not as bad as the first one I got. That "oval" bleeding was so annoying and impossible not to notice.

Must...
BF3 doesn't support Nvidia 3D Vision yet. It will only be supported in the next patch...
I have received my VG278H couple of days ago. It has a pretty bad backlight bleeding:

Just got my ASUS VG278H 27 inch 3D monitor. Used it for a couple of days- the 3D mode is excellent when compared to 3D Vision V1. The colors and response time are great. I was pretty happy for a while, before noticing some really weird backlighting issues:
