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.
You are experiencing the Moire effect common with most shadow-mask monitors. My experience with that monitor is to try and adjust the moire settings in the on-screen menu of your monitor. A setting of 50 seems to do the trick.
Could be moire... Look through the monitor's menus and see if there's an adjustment. Also, try changing video modes. I had a 17" once that only had a moire problem in 1152x864.
I have 2 of those monitors and don't have any prooblem like you are having.
I bought both of mine locally since NewEgg sold them for the same price, $199 but I'd rather pay tax ($9) than $25 shipping. circuit City and Best Buy has them.
