    I have to disagree. I have found a 1440p gsync monitor to work amazingly with just a gtx 1070. True it won't hold high FPS with the AAA games for years longer, but for now it's keeping up really well. You also have to keep in mind that anti-aliasing is not needed at such a high resolution...

    Strange artifacts ROG Swift PG278Q

    Cheers for the advice! DisplayCAL is what I had in mind. Do you have any advice regarding DisplayCAL settings to address this problem specifically? I usually keep the PG278Q's brightness between 8 and 25 depending on the time of day. EDIT: igluk: Unlike my last ventures with Calibrilla, I...

    Strange artifacts ROG Swift PG278Q

    Do you believe similar results can be achieved using a calibration device? Reading you guys' replies initially, I though I should just go and find a better quality wallpaper. However, the effect seems to show up in most dark wallpapers I can find. Maybe the 'lower shadow gamma' phenomenon is...

    Strange artifacts ROG Swift PG278Q

    Wow this makes a world of difference. So if I understand correctly, the lower shadow gamma results in flaws in pictures being more highlighted? This 'digi-camo' effect is nothing to worry about?

    Thanks for your reply. Apparently the forums won't let me upload the original picture in its original state. I will upload the picture to a host and edit the link into the first post. As you suspected the monitor has near perfect 2.2 gamma. I realise this isn't a very good picture. However, I...

    Strange artifacts ROG Swift PG278Q

    Hello! After thoroughly researching, I deciding that most the many issues with the PG278q would not bother me too much. (Pixel inversion etc) So I went ahead and bought it. However, I've been noticing some rather strange artifacts on desktop wallpapers (as seen in the picture below). I don't...

    You're right there is no verifyable source. It's speculation more than anything else. I should have formulated better. I was parroting the comment section on this page: Samsung C24FG70: Curved VA 144Hz FreeSync Gaming Monitor

    It seems like the C24FG70's stand can be detached to reveal a 75mm VESA.

    That sounds really great. The biggest issue with this model according to a lot of people is the foggy clouds on most dark (not-black). But apparently not all units suffer from this? I've had incredibly bad luck in the panel lottery so far, but what you're describing sounds worth the gamble...

    In that case I really hope I'll be at least half as lucky as you. Did you ever experience the white foggy gamma issues at the horizontal edges of the screen, though? I see a lot of mentions of it. For example in the FG2421 thread on this forum. It's mentioned that it doesn't occur on 0 black but...

    Hey! I was pretty amazed by Racerprose's screenshots. After some consideration I decided to have a go at trying an Eizo Foris FG2421. I was wondering if any experienced user can give me a small list of things to keep an eye on in regard to this model's infamous QC issues. I was thinking about...

    Thanks a lot for telling us about your experiences with the monitor. I'm sad to hear that it has that many backlight issues. I was really getting my hopes up for this model.

    I'm looking forward to reading about your experiences. The y27g is my last hope of getting a monitor in the near future.

    I think the latter is the only way this panel will ever find its way to the larger public. There's simply not enough people willing to take the risk that comes with such an ordering method. Not to mention the (probably) non-existent warranty. I will most likely fork over the $$$ for the y27g if...

    On one hand this seems logical. On the other hand.. OLED tech is still very much behind on response times. If you go to any random electronics store right now and look at the OLED screens, you can tell that they still have a lot of trouble with fast moving images. Of course those current panels...
