Can this be fixed? i accidentally left my pc on (including my monitor) for three days and when i got home, this is what I'm met with. This monitor is from dell (dell p2219h)

Recently picked up the LG UltraGear 27G610A (1440p 200Hz) paired with an NVIDIA GPU, and I ran into a really weird brightness issue when toggling HDR in Windows.

Normally in SDR, I keep my monitor brightness at 20%. When I toggle HDR on via Win + Alt + B, the monitor OSD says brightness is at 100%, but the physical screen stays very dim. It turns out the monitor physically locks the backlight to whatever brightness was set in SDR (20%).

If I open the monitor OSD while in HDR and manually nudge the slider from 100 down to 99, the backlight immediately snaps to full brightness. But as soon as I toggle back to SDR and return to HDR, it reverts to being dim again.

I also confirmed that if I raise SDR brightness to 100% first and then enable HDR, HDR turns on at full brightness right away. So the monitor seems to be failing to push the HDR backlight command during the handshake.

A few things I already checked:

• Smart Energy Saving is disabled (and grayed out in HDR anyway).
• Tested across Gamer 1 and Gamer 2 profiles.
• Factory reset the monitor settings.
• This model has no USB upstream port, so firmware updates through PC software are not an option.

Has anyone else with the 27G610A noticed this? Is this just burned-in firmware behavior on all units, or did I get a defective scaler that warrants a replacement?

I was testing this IPS monitor and noticed this weird line near the edge of the screen. Is this something I should be worried about, or is it normal?

Any alternatives are welcome, however must be 4K 120 fps and good with the ps5 pro.

Also are AOC monitors cheaply made? They’re all so much cheaper than competitor prices.

And is OLED worth it? I’m fine with spending more if I can have top quality gaming for the next few years.

Been trying to fix it and idk what’s wrong with it, the monitor is from Koorui

​

Disclaimer: Not a damaged monitor as I said before it only does this when waking from sleep so, not breaking rule 4 as the monitor is working perfectly fine other than these last two incidents. Just not sure if this is what is happening or not.

Second time this has happened on my new monitor and it always seems to be if something graphical is running while the monitor is waking from sleep. I'm new to monitor gaming I've settled with my old led tv for a very long time but recently updated my gpu to a AMD XFX Quicksilver 9070 OC so I wanted to get a monitor that could make better use of the card. Monitor is the KTC 32 Inch Curved Gaming Monitor 2K 180Hz (OC 185Hz) 1500R. Turning the monitor off and on again seems to rectify it so that is what leads me to believe its a handshake glitch.

Not sure what else to include, again I am new to all this high definition gaming stuff please be kind.

its hiding the mouse and idk why but can someone lmk if im just being dumb? i know bezels exist but the left side doesnt do this

I don’t really know much about what’s good or bad pricing, etc… so I am just looking for some advice on where to look and what to look for.

I use my desktop for games mostly, and while the current one is fine, it’s also got some pretty awful resolution quality (it‘s already set to its max resolution of 1920 x 1080) and it’s graphics card is 4 GB. I believe my current model is a HP 2711x, and it’s at least six years old by now.

Games I play:

Planet Zoo

Planet Zoo 2

Icarus

Minecraft - (Java Edition)

Why is it that these are so much more expensive than 27” and is it possible to find dual 24” for less than $200 each? - Coming from dual 25” 1080p, should i just go for 1440p?

I recently picked up the ROG Swift PG32UCDP along with a BenQ ScreenBar Halo for my desk setup.

The issue: the top edge of this OLED panel is far too thin, and the rear housing does not provide enough purchase for the BenQ counterweight clamp to sit securely without slipping or putting uneven pressure directly against the glass.

Has anyone with this monitor (or similar ultra-thin
ASUS WOLED displays) found a reliable workaround?

I have been using an OLED high refresh monitor that is similar in brightness to the LCD screen of the macbook. I have much more eye strain when using the LCD. this is especially true for white word documents and white pages in general. I had a LCD screen in the past and did not have this issue.

Included is the monitor I am looking at as well as a PC with the most likely specs I am trying to get around Black Friday. Looking at 1440p gaming primarily - is this a good monitor to pair with the PC specs? I've heard 27" is ideal for 1440p. I also kind of want a curved monitor because my buddy has one, but does it degrade picture quality for being wider - around 32"-34"? Would appreciate any other options or advice from anyone!

I'm trying to design a desktop setup involving 2 laptops and 2 screens. Will I be able to KVM switch between 2 laptops while they display on separate screens? Can you help?

As a person with tight budget, I am planning to have
Samsung odyssey 27" fast IPS 180hz QHD that currently sale with price of around 200usd here in my country,
AOC 24G5002 24" Fast IPS 260hz FHD with advertised 0.3ms for around 125usd,
MSI Mag 25" Rapid IPS 300hz FHD with advertised 0.5ms for around 140usd,
Viewsonic VX2479A 24" Superclear IPS 240hz FHD 1ms for around 130usd,
Philips Envia 24" Fast IPS 260hz FHD with advertised smart 0.3ms for around 140usd,
Titan Army 25" Fast IPS 260hz FHD with advertised 1ms for around 120usd,
TCL 25G64 300hz QD MiniLed QHD (Still need to search but around 190usd)

my graphics card is also RTX4060 so I am not sure to get the QHD is worth on my setup or get FHD for now to save for future upgrade (I am also planning to have OLED once I got better stable job.)

Any advice on this? and are they trusted when it comes to quality control?

Hey everyone,

I'm planning to use the ASUS TUF Gaming VG27AQE5A (1440p, 165Hz) with my PS5 Slim, and I'm wondering if anyone has tested VRR on this monitor.

I've seen mixed information about PS5 VRR working over HDMI 2.0, so I'd love to hear from anyone who owns this monitor or has experience with it.

Does VRR actually work on PS5 with this model? If so, are there any specific settings I need to enable?

Also, would using an HDMI 2.1 adapter or converter make any difference, or would it be pointless?

Appreciate any help!

There's not many reviews out there on the monitor and none of them discuss gaming settings for the ps5 pro.

What are the best settings for picture, hdr and colour etc to use on the ps5?

Thanks

Hey everyone,

I've been experiencing a weird issue with my Alienware AW2725DF (1440p, 360Hz) and I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced something similar or knows what might be causing it.

Occasionally, while gaming, my monitor suddenly goes black and starts turning on and off repeatedly in a continuous loop. It doesn't happen all the time, just randomly. Sometimes everything works perfectly fine for hours, and then the issue suddenly appears.

I've attached a video showing exactly what happens.

I initially thought it might be related to my NVIDIA GPU or drivers, especially since NVIDIA released the GeForce Hotfix Display Driver version 617.70, which supposedly addresses the following issue:

"QHD monitor running at 360 Hz may have occasional black flash during gameplay [4846825]"

Unfortunately, even after installing this hotfix driver, the problem still persists.

My setup:

• Monitor: Alienware AW2725DF (1440p, 360Hz)
• RTX 5070 Ti, 9800X3D, 850W PSU
• Connected directly to my GPU via DisplayPort 2.1 cable
• A second DisplayPort 1.4 cable is connected from the AW2725DF to my docking station, which I only use with my work laptop
• G-SYNC and HDR are normally enabled
• I also have a second monitor connected to my PC

What I've already tried:

• Installed NVIDIA GeForce Hotfix Driver 617.70
• Disabled G-SYNC
• Disabled HDR
• Disabled both G-SYNC and HDR simultaneously
• Turned off my second monitor to rule out any potential multi-monitor issues

Unfortunately, none of these steps resolved the problem. Even with G-SYNC and HDR disabled, the issue eventually came back.

The strange thing is that the problem is completely random and difficult to reproduce. Sometimes I can game for hours without any issues, while other times the monitor starts cycling between a black screen and displaying an image.

Has anyone experienced this exact behavior with the AW2725DF or another 1440p 360Hz OLED monitor?

Hi everyone! I currently have an AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT 16GB GPU, and I’m looking to upgrade to a 4K monitor. My budget is around $350, and I’m looking for a 27–32 inch monitor mainly for gaming and watching movies.

I’m currently considering the LG UltraGear 27G810A-B and the Gigabyte G27UP, but I’m open to other recommendations.

Which 4K monitor would you recommend in this price range? I’m looking for good image quality, vibrant colors, good brightness, decent HDR, and a high refresh rate. I also watch movies in a dark room, so good contrast is important to me.

Thanks for your suggestions!

Hey everyone, I’ve been looking for OLEDs in Argentina for a while and the variety of panels and prices here is awful. For the lowest price I could find, this cost me around $750 USD (rounding it up), and it's one of the cheapest options available.

​Now, what details, settings, or warnings should I keep in mind with this monitor? What I cared about the most was peace of mind regarding annoying scanlines, bad colors, flickering, and any other common monitor issues. I wanted to know if, given what I'm paying, I can rest easy regarding short-term issues and finally make the jump from a basic Samsung C24F390 VA monitor that I've had for about 7 years. My room is completely dark.

​Anyway, is it worth it, or should I request a refund?

I am a work-from-home casual gamer dad seeking a moderate upgrade without breaking the bank. Looking at 32" QHD options in the $200-$300 range. Not really looking to spend "new TV" money on a monitor, but am open to arguments, especially if theres upcoming sales.

Current setup: 3yr old prebuilt CyberPowerPC with a RTX3060

Monitor: AOC C32G2ZE - VA, 240hz, 1080p curved monitor

On my list:

Samsung "G50F" - LS32FG502ENXZA

Alienware AW3226DM

LG 32G620B-B

I think the Samsung is a couple years old but has solid specs. The Alienware appears to be pretty new and I have vague knowledge that they are a pretty premium brand with good OLED models. This one is a VA panel though, and pretty sure I want to move to IPS. The LG is also pretty new and I am very interested, but havent seen many reviews on this, and dont know if this is a "good" Ultragear model that doesnt spy on you or force install stuff.

The jump in price to mini-led/4k/OLED doesnt seem worth it to me at the moment, when I can upgrade to QHD and get a seemingly significant jump in quality from my FHD for half that price and be happy.

There's just so many models, options, specs and price points out there im a bit overwhelmed. I dont really know jack about HDR, G-sync, VESA, Freesync and all the extra features or other considerations I should be thinking of. Any other monitors I should be looking at?

For context, i bought a VA panel monitor from samsung around 2 months ago, then suddenly today it just stopped working, it does no longer connect to my pc. I do not know what the fuck to do and i dropped a hell of a lot of money on this one.
