    ASUS VG278H - The weirdest backlight bleeding I ever saw

    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...

    ASUS VG278H - The weirdest backlight bleeding I ever saw

    I'm on my third VG278H monitor now. I'll keep you posted if the oval-bleeding develops again.

    ASUS VG278H - The weirdest backlight bleeding I ever saw

    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...

    Asus VG278H is coming soon!!!!

    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...

    Asus VG278H is coming soon!!!!

    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. With the second monitor, it takes...

    Asus VG278H is coming soon!!!!

    I originally bought mine from "pccanada.com". They were nice about it- allowed me to do a straight exchange at their warehouse. The new monitor is much better- no weird oval-shaped bleeding in the middle at all. A little at the edges- but then again which LED LCDs don't have at least a bit of...

    ASUS VG278H - The weirdest backlight bleeding I ever saw

    The oval-shaped bleed was present at every brightness/contrast setting I tried. I just replaced the monitor today- the new one is much better. A little bit of bleed at the edges- but nothing out of ordinary otherwise. Great in 2D/3D. No ghosting/crosstalk at Tracefree 80 and Contrast 66. Must...

    Asus VG278H is coming soon!!!!

    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: Is this an isolated occurrence? Have any of you guys had a change to see the monitor in person and check the bleeding?

    ASUS VG278H - The weirdest backlight bleeding I ever saw

    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: Notice the oval-shaped backlight...
