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 got my replacement today. thankfully no red pixels this time. I really wish it had a vesa mount, but for the price I paid for it I guess I can't complain too much.
they're fairly dim. you have to get pretty close to be able to see them, but its still enough that it will bother me knowing it's there so I will return it. I hope the replacement doesn't have the same problem.
alright a new problem has arisen and this is much worse...
near the bottom center of the screen there is about a 2 inch by .5 inch area where there are several red pixels. this is most apparent on a black background. you can't really see them unless you get really close to the monitor but this...
mine came in today. This is the first IPS panel I've owned and the difference is apparent immediately. I don't think I could ever go back to TN again.
I just have one question: on black screens the monitor flickers a little bit. is this normal?
edit: this only seems to happen with the xbox...
I agree totally. It seems like gamers these days (especially pc gamers) hate everything that comes out. I'm loving crysis 2 so far and it looks amazing on my 46" tv.
After several generations of nvidia cards I purchased a 4890 back in '09. It has performed admirably but I'm ready for an upgrade. I'm looking to go back to nvidia, but I can't decide if I should get a gtx 560 ti or spend the extra dough for a gtx 570.
specs:
i5 750
4gb ram
corsair 750w...
Well, I picked one up at sam's earlier. it definitely has some backlight bleed on the top and bottom, but im not sure if its enough that I want to return it. other than the bleed, it really is an amazing display and a HUGE step up from my 17 in CRT.
guys, I was at sam's club last night and they had this monitor. I noticed that there were two different kinds of boxes for it. one was brown and one was white. perhaps one of them indicates a newer model, and possibly less bleeding problems? I might be picking one up tonight. ill let you guys...
