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 never touched it, so I guess it was enabled.
I need to correct my earlier statement though. I took some more measurements tonight and it turns out that there's nothing special about the Game mode -- I can get over 450 cd/m2 in pretty much any mode when Brightness is set to 100%. It makes me...
I just finished calibrating mine using the i1 Display 2 colorimeter. Mind you, that device is not exactly state of the art anymore, but it works well enough for my non-professional needs.
I switched the color mode to Custom and adjusted R, G, and B to 96, 94, and 99, respectively. These...
I received mine yesterday. First impressions are very positive.
I connected it over HDMI to a laptop with 4th gen. Intel graphics (HD 4400) running Linux. It worked fine out of the box at 30Hz, which actually positively surprised me since, according to Intel's own guide, their chipset is...
I guess I wanted to know first of all if it actually works. E.g., I have an old BenQ monitor here in front of me that point blank refuses to accept its native resolution over HDMI. Thanks for confirming that it does.
Thanks, that's useful feedback as well. Anyway, yesterday evening I...
Has anybody used one of these over HDMI? That's the only video out port that my laptop has, and Intel HD 4400 graphics inside... I realize that the refresh rate at native resolution will be limited to 30Hz, but I don't care about games, only the desktop.
A follow-up on this. After two weeks the chemical smell faded somewhat, but it was still there, so I called Dell and requested an exchange. The replacement arrived today (A02, Made in China, December 2011) and it smells just like the first one did. :mad: So it's not an isolated problem. I...
My new U2412M (A01, Made in China, December 2011) stinks.
Literally.
I noticed on the first day I got it the chemical smell coming out of the vents on the top. Not the usual sweet smell of warm plastic common to all new electronics (gee, I sound like a junky! :)), but more of a...
