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.

Mine hums, but only when brightness is near 0%. At 100% it's silent. The serial number begins with 771. I should receive the replacement this week. I hope all the problems my unit have won't be present in that one...
My 2690 arrived yesterday. It has some problems, backlight bleeding, scratches on the panel surface and one dead pixel. I also noticed that at extreme angles, black has a reddish tint (see attached photo). Can anyone tell me if this is a problem of h-ips technology or just an issue of my unit?
Tamlin, can you make a test on your monitor with the images and checkpatterns provided by ToastyX, and tell us if you can see everything properly, please?
