Another important thing to note! It seems that for whatever reason, my videocard switches from 1080p PC resultion to 1080p native DisplayPort/HDMI, where only 60Hz can be selected and only 16-235 range can be used. Now, I do use the 0-255 HDMI registry editions/ "hacks" to force 0-255 for HDMI, but I don't think it works for DisplayPort. I am quite certain that THIS is the reason why some people reported a completely washed out picture.
BTW, no matter how hard I look close at ANY pattern, I cannot see any crosshatching what-so-ever. I could not see it on my VG249QE.
I say that this monitor suffers 2 major issues:
1. Slight left and right backlight bleed of 3-5mm in length that occurs only with dark patterns and is exacerbated by VA angles, which makes it seem as if the backlight bleed extends to like 1inch or so.
2. Primary colors at 100% saturation are whacked up, but skin tones are excellent, real-world ColorChecker results are excellent, 25-75% saturation sweeps are acceptable/decent.
Both are over-compensated by excellent contrast ratio, awesome 240Hz turbo mode, and easy to use controls!
