    Well, it depends on what do you want and what do you need... 1700x and 1800x are high leakage silicon for "pro" overclockers... if you just want to do some mild OC with air or an AIO setup, better buy the 1700. AMD makes very great products (more than people realize), but they need a little bit...

    Ryzen 7 1700 + B350 Overclocking Tidbits

    bwang, how hot are the mobo vrm's? as you say, it's possible that there is a thermal wall with "standard" cooling, but just to be sure... Thank you for your time doing those tests :)

    Excuse me, but i think that's only the reflection of the environment.

    BenQ new VW2420/EW2420 VA panel with LED backlight.

    Everybody sees this, and i think maybe it's because there is only led's at this part of the screen (as i read somewhere, edge led doesn't always mean "all-4-edges" led). So this is, sadly, a trait of this monitor. Not that i care too much, anyway. You know it's there but most of the time...

    BenQ new VW2420/EW2420 VA panel with LED backlight.

    Beware if you are an ATI owner. There is an overscan setting there, also (i don't know about Nvidia)

    BenQ new VW2420/EW2420 VA panel with LED backlight.

    Mine doesn't have HDMI, but has an option about the input signal: overscan, full, or aspect. It sounds like what you report.

    BenQ new VW2420/EW2420 VA panel with LED backlight.

    Through DVI or DP? I'm thinking about the possibility of getting less vertical refresh (true 50hz), but i don't know if it will damage in any way, shape or form the monitor (i don't think it will, and the specs talk about 50-76hz range, but i don't know if its only input range and the monitor...

    BenQ new VW2420/EW2420 VA panel with LED backlight.

    Yes, i have it too. That's what i think are the leds at the edge. It doesn't disturb me so much.

    BenQ new VW2420/EW2420 VA panel with LED backlight.

    What influence could make ATI's Catalyst color settings (where you can set the temperature, it defaults to 6500K) or the own monitor icm profile (installed with the driver)?

    BenQ new VW2420/EW2420 VA panel with LED backlight.

    Just a thing: The panel on the BL2400PT is half glossy, half matte (i don't know if it's exactly a 50-50), so i believe it's the same coating for the BL an the rest of it's "brothers". And now a doubt.. why people use the sharpness setting? Mine was at 2 or 3 by default, and i don't know...

    BenQ new VW2420/EW2420 VA panel with LED backlight.

    Mine also came with both cables (well, and the audio one, so that's three :D). And i really wasn't expecting it...

    BenQ new VW2420/EW2420 VA panel with LED backlight.

    As already stated, I have an unusual setup, so i don't think my opinion is really useful, but.. Yes, there is ghosting with some transitions/colors. No, there aren't "visible artifacts" with AMA (wrong colors and something like that), at least that i can see. No, the ghosting doesn't matter...

    BenQ new VW2420/EW2420 VA panel with LED backlight.

    Well, i always do that... take the brightness down (my eyes don't like too much monitor light on dark rooms), and then up the contrast until i like the image. I don't notice the gamma shift like that on normal monitor use and with low ambient light, only with the lagom test screen, so for me...

    BenQ new VW2420/EW2420 VA panel with LED backlight.

    Well, i thought it would be better to have visual proof instead of verbal opinions, so... BL2400PT Backlight A picture Gamma shift, i suppose All of those are made with a crappy digital camera with a lot of barrel distortion, a "tripod" (sort of), on a dark room, and...

    BenQ new VW2420/EW2420 VA panel with LED backlight.

    Not at all. But keep in mind that i keep the monitor with zero brightness and everything disabled (except AMA). The only place i can "see" the leds are on the bottom, if there is something light gray on it (typical status bar), and then you can see (if pay really attention) the "shadows"...
