Many owners have gotten monitors with dead pixels, dust specs and blobs stuck behind the panel and horrible backlight bleed/IPS glow.

I am fortunate that my monitor has only slight IPS glow, not enough to reduce the the rating

Still terrible yellow IPS glow on the right

In the end though I prefer the IPS glow to the TN shifting

Terrible yellow-tinted IPS glow, many pressure points around the bezel causing back-light bleed

You know a lot of people don't know that IPS screens have scream glow that's just the nature of

The LED red glow with the ROG logo and under base circle look very nice and a great touch they didnt have to add but did

When the second screen came to me I of course checked for all the things that people regularly complain about with this panel, light bleed and excessive glow

Curved IPS display' really means 'Curved IPS display with 20% of the screen eaten up by bright orange glow', and so on

horrible, horrible IPS glow.

The glow is a complete non issue for myself as the monitor is pixel perfect and amazing in terms of color accuracy.

The backlight glow on the ASUS is still not really good.

I cleaned it up and turned it on and it looked good initially but after about an hour of use, the entire bottom right corner had a terrible yellow glow to it that stretched nearly half ways across the monitor

I wouldn't mind minor "glow" or "bleed" but what makes it worse is that they allegedly look at these in dark room and find it acceptable when it's noticeable in a brightly lit room

so I hooked it up to see THE WORST glow I've ever seen

Beautiful monitor: Unparalleled smoothness, no signs of horribly bad IPS glow, very functional in its movement, lots of screen real

Didn't have any dead pixels, just horrible IPS glow on three of the four corners

Not even the profile I used could help mitigate the horrendous orange glow

so the glow doesn't bother me.

Horrible blb, horrible IPS glow, returned it immediately, let me know when QC becomes a

it was a big improvement over my 4 year old vg24qe, after about a hour or two with it I put on a black screen and found that it had severe IPS glow and on the upper right side about a inch of blb that I wasn't that concerned with

Pros: 60-165hz, 1440p, viewing anglesI dont like the IPS glow, imho my old TN panel(ve276q) was doing really good

maybe all the glow is bleed) is about3x as large of an area of theirs in the top right and bottom right corners

The IPS glow on this monitor was horrible, no matter the viewing angle

The IPS glow on mine is almost nonexistent

and if I'm specifically looking for it, if the screen isn't completely dark it's very hard to notice the glow as well

Has severe orange glow and backlight bleed

To give a bit of confidence to some, I just recieved mine today and there was literally NO backlight bleed or bad IPS glow

I understand IPS panels have some blacklight bleed, but this orange glow is just ridiculous

However, along with the majority of buyers, I have significant backlight glow in the bottom right corner.

The difference being, the 279 is an IPS variant, which has truly horrible "IPS glow"

Don't get me wrong, the display itself is absolutely gorgeous; the colors are wonderful, the bezels are slim, the stand is clean and stylish, and the stated features (144hz, g-sync, etc) all work as intended.

The g-sync and fast refresh paired beautifully with my GTX 1080 to make an amazing gaming experience

In addition to a 165Hz panel you get Nvidia's G-Sync adaptive-refresh technology, ULMB motion-blur reduction, GamePlus, a hot-key to switch framerates on the fly and the usual lineup of gaming-specific image modes

If you don't have G-sync supporting GTX cards, DO NOT buy this model

Color Accuracy-Great Response Time-G-SYNC-Easy to adjust refresh rates

I've tested a few games (Overwatch, DOOM, Civ VI, among others) with G-Sync, which works perfectly and adds a huge edge for competitive games

Cons: G-Sync Scan Lines impacting the right half of the screen, signifying a faulty G-Sync Module

G-sync works

I will just go for the cheapest G-sync next time around

Modified graphics settings on the computer instead of the monitor (most websites say to try disabling G-Sync and V-Sync, dropping it down to 60hz, adjusting gamma, and so much more.**Of

The G-Sync when combined with a refresh rate of more than 60 hertz, the screen flickers 10 times in under a minute

Upon disabling G-Sync, the scan lines became far less visible

You're practically paying $150 just for G-Sync (Which I love
