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.
It's the VGA. Get yourself a DVI card, and it will be like getting your first pair of glasses. Although, the monitor's position/size adjustments might help a bit to align the video's pixels to the monitor's pixels.
And Cleartype won't make anything look sharper. It will make text look nicer...
My replacement is much better than the first. No bad pixels on the replacement either (1 green on the original). They are both Rev A00 from Mexico.
I posted a comparison photo in the other thread, but didn't vote because I'm having other problems with mine (both of them).
I got my 2005 about two weeks ago and it had the usual backlight problem. I emailed them about a replacement, it arrived today, and yes, it's much better. Here's a photo for those who think others just aren't noticing the problem (I thought that might be the case also):
Edit: OK, the sun...
