Hey guys,
Big issue. I recently had to get a replacement Dell 2309W sent out because my original one had some pretty horrendous yellow patches occurring in front of some extremely hot areas of the monitor. Not pretty.
The new one has been perfect up until...today. Make that up to two hours ago...
Now, as you can see from the picture below, there is some horrible red artifacting going on. I have no idea what caused this - I thought it may have been due to my small OC, so I went stock and have been monitoring my GPU temps.
A bit of research on the intertubes pointed toward a monitor problem. I unplugged both ends of my (brand new!) DVI cable that came with the monitor, checked for kinks/bent pins, what have you. No dice. Basically, blacks are tending toward reds - and I have no clue why.

Please help
P.S: Apologies for the terribad picture quality. The iphone never was any good at taking pictures.
