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.
Can anyone tell me about the BIOS settings fast boot and hardware fast boot? What's the difference between them? I've read that fast boot should be disabled to extend SSD life. But is that only for Windows 8 fast boot, which seems to be some kind of hibernation? I have Windows 7, and my...
For mine I found that I needed to download the test images and open them that way. It never worked right in the browser. Also I had to adjust the gamma through Nvidia control settings. For some reason adjusting the gamma through the monitors OSD made no visible difference.
Used I would think doesn't come with a warranty, so you wouldn't be able to RMA through the manufacturer. Manufacturer refurbished would. But you could return or exchange through Amazon.
There was a bad batch. I heard from BenQ and they're aware of a flashing problem effecting a very small percentage. They said its due to the back lighting and main board not syncing up. It's something they can replace with an RMA.
I've found that the flickering problem seems to be related to the Contrast setting in the monitor's OSD. I had it at the default value of 50 on my video. It needs to be below 15 or so to stop the flickering. But of course this makes everything very dim. Turning it up higher than the default...
Yes, unless I knew for sure that this is not a problem with most of the monitors. Considering it happened on two of yours, I think it may be more common than you'd think. But since it happens only in certain conditions and certain games, many have not come across the issue. Maybe it only happens...
Normally I would say no. If it was only something that happened on special tests I wouldn't mind. But the fact that it happens in my favorite game every time I go into third person ruins it for me, and I don't think I could live with that. Shame because it's a beautiful monitor otherwise.
I don't think it's because of the flicker free technology. I used a BL2710PT before and it didn't cause any noticeable problem in games for me.
The http://www.gdargaud.net/Hack/DeadPixel/GreenMagenta.html page does some strange things when you make a small window out of it. The whole screen...
Yes mine is flickering in the same area on Google Earth, but only when zoomed in at that particular distance. It is also flickering for me in Arma 3 if I'm in third person running over light colored ground.
It also flickers as discussed previously on...
The green pixels were there from the moment I got it, before the pop sound occurred. I don't understand what the pop was considering everything seems to be functioning fine right after it happened.
I just received my new BenQ BL2710PT monitor. After a few hours use, I had it just sitting on the desktop and moving my mouse when it suddenly made a pop sound, the display distorted and turned off, and then immediately came back on. Everything works fine now though, as if nothing happened. It...
