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.
Your blue monitor still looks blue maybe 7500K-8500K on my calibrated monitor and the benq has a minimal almost not noticeable yellow tone.
It takes around 5 minutes for your eyes/brain to adjust to a new monitor setting so have you tried to:
- Turn your blue monitor off
- Take a 5 minute walk...
I can also recommend the BenQ BL2411PT. It's cheaper than the Eizo and seems to be of very high quality displaywise, personally i think it's even better than the Eizo but thats my own opinion. The stand however feels a bit clunky and is not quite up to Eizo's standard. Checkout the BenQ BL2411PT...
I got a EV2436W (says EV2436W on the label) at work a week ago that was manufactured 7 oct 2013 and it is really good. No blb or other defects. The ag coating is grainier than my BenQ BL2411PT but i would not say it's heavy so no sparklies. I am very pleased with it.
I got a Eizo EV2436W at work yesterday and and i must say i was deeply worried when i read this thread but after using it for 2 days i seem to have got a really good one.
There's no noticeable blb, no pixel defects or smudges. The AG coating is clearly grainier than the BenQ BL2411PT i got at...
Nope it did not work.
At least i can run 720p from 48Hz up to 86Hz. Neither the horizontal sweep frequency or pixel clock were that high so i think it's a limitation in BenQ's displaychip, maybe a firmware update could unlock higher frequencys at higher resolutions.
Leaving it on automatic i can go to 61Hz.
As for making my own resolutions adapted for movies, this is what i got working so far:
1440x900 48Hz, 72Hz
1366x768 48Hz, 72Hz
1280x720 48Hz, 72Hz
I got a displayport cable but no luck yet. What i can see is that the following builtin resolutions gives me the choice of 60Hz or 75Hz:
1280x1024
1280x960
1280x800
1280x768
1152x864
1024x768
And the following gives me the choice of 50Hz, 59Hz or 60Hz:
1920x1080
1768x992
1280x720
1176x664...
