/\ see what you mean, yours is no where near as bad as my 2 were ! I could happily live with that if only I could get one like it :( My pics were taken with out-of-the-box brightness/contrast but seeing as you had to turn everything right up I assume it is not noticable at all at default...

Not very impressed with this monitor. Terrible colour banding, worst I have ever seen When I first turned it on I thought my gfx card had switched to 16-bit colour :eek: Stupid connector layout, the DVI and HDMI connectors are right above the stand bracket meaning you have to bend each...

Here are some pics of the Feb 08 one I had: 1080p: 1080i: Unfortunately the pics do not show the additional wave like movement that also occurs when viewing from a distance. Note when viewing head on only the bottom bar noise is visable, but when you look from a slight angle you...

The sticker on the back with model no., serial no. etc. or sticker on the box

hmmm, so we have a Sept 07 with the problem, then 10e's Nov 07 without, then 2 Feb 08's with and a Mar 08 also with. So I guess its not related to build date :confused: Did you try BenQ tech support? Like I said they told me it is a known issue and nothing can be done. Real shame I know but...

I did think maybe the problem has just started with newer revisions. Seems strange hardly anyone has noticed the problem. I really like the monitor otherwise I would definately try an older revision if I new where I could get one :confused: As for swapping the inputs, doesn't help. Problem is...

I agree totally, the noise makes 1080p unusable to me too. Worst thing is watching PS3 bluray movies it just constantly catches my eye, looks even worse with dark scenes. Wouldnt bother sending it back, I had 2 both were exactly the same, one was manufactured Feb 08 the other Mar 08. Thought...

This doesn't sound exactly the same problem, mainly because the 2 ive had only did it in 1080p, 720p and 1080i both had perfect solid black borders as you would expect. Also I dont think I was able to do 1:1 or Aspect with 1680x1050 over DVI, it would just default to full screen and the other...

I cant view your pics but I think I know what your talking about... I have just sent 2 of these back because of it. My prob is: when viewing a 1080p signal using either 1:1 or Aspect display modes, the black bars top and bottom are not actually solid black but made up of faint white...
