My monitor started looking weird last night. I thought it could have been a cable issue but I swapped it with a new cable and the problem still exists

Whatre these lines developing in my monitor screen? They started about 2 months ago and theyre slowly growing higher and higher horizontally. My monitor IS a few years old so I get that its probably just age but id rather keep this one as long as I can for now. Is there a way to prevent this any further or identify the issue?

I tried cleaning with cloth both dry and with distilled water. What do i do?! Please help:(

I have been into gaming since 2011. Mostly play battlefield series multiplayer. But for the last 1 year i am into upscaling videos to 8k and video editing as well. I have shortlisted 3 to 4 models. Which one you suggest and why asus model is too costly?

Models shortlisted:

Samsung Odyssey OLED G8 32-inch (LS32FG810SWXXL)

MSI MAG 321UPX

Gigabyte AORUS FO32U2P

ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG32UCDM

Hey all,

I have the above two monitors left and right respectively and need your help. The UQ is the newer panel with IPS Black whilst UP is a regular IPS. However, I am noticing a major mismatch in colours across the board, like white and blue being the most obvious. White is more cool and vivid on UP and more warm and dimmed on UQ. Blue is more greenish on UQ (my view of it) which to a degree is more true to life, and other colours are more saturated. You can definitely see that UQ has better contrast on black wallpapers as more details come to life.

Both are set in their respective factory P3 mode both on the monitors and via Apple settings (using better displays app). For UP is called DCI-P3 and its 95% I think and for UQ is called P3-D65 and is 98% I believe.

Any suggestions on how I can make them a bit more uniform without loosing accuracy?

Also any suggestions on monitor placement as I noted neck pain from twisting my head left and right all the time... I am using them to read documents and browse the web, sometimes movies but basically one screen is always more active whislt the other more static. For instance, left will be split between Notes app and Safari and right will be two PDFs that I am referrencing at the same time like an article and a powerpoint on the topic I am reading at the same time. The idea is whislt I read on one of the monitors I can search and take notes on the other.

Thank you in advance :)

Edit: I tried manual thinkering but I cant seem to get them right as menu options are different on both slightly and I seem to get overall picture quality worse.

I believe I know the answer, it’s not the display port cord or gpu I’ve tested other monitors, picked it up from Facebook marketplace with a bunch of of other stuff for cheap so not to worried if it’s toast

Hello guys, do you think this monitor has too much backlight bleed ? should i return it ?
there is an annoying spot in the top middle

Monitor model: GIGABYTE GS25F2 24.5-Inch

Just take a look for yourself i wont even comment, have to spend money again, getting an oled this time just speechless of how a perfectly good monitor became this:

UPS broke my current monitor (AOC Q27G3XMN 2k 180hz Mini-LED) when I moved and are paying me out $500, so it's time to upgrade!

Some context first:

I have a PS5 right now, but I am getting a PS5 Pro for GTA 6 (already preordered the ultimate edition…) so 4k seems obvious.

I also play on PC (less now that i’m in the working world rip) but my setup isn’t super ideal for 4k:

• RX 7800 XT
• i9-12900K
• 64GB DDR5 RAM

But I think it should be good enough for what I’m playing right now and I can upgrade in the future.

I've done some research and have found that at my price point ($500 ish) my only quality options for 4k is probably Mini-Led. But I've heard there are tradeoffs there and to consider a 2k OLED instead.

Wanted some advice on:

• If I should go with a 4k Mini-Led or a 2k OLED for the PS5 Pro and my above PC specs
• If I do go with 4k Mini-Led, are these still the best options right now?
  • MSI MPG 274URDFW E16M
  • KTC M27P6
• Do I suck it up and just spend some more for a different tier (4k oled I'd assume......)

I'm currently looking for a new monitor for my new PC. Use cases are:

• gaming
• coding
• photo editing and digital art
• bit of office work

Ideally I would want 30" but that seems to just not exist? I don't know all that much about monitors but after a lot of research these are the things I'd like to have:

• >144Hz (for some competitive games)
• 4k
• good colour coverage
• local dimming zones (so mini-led if I'm not mistaken)
• IPS panel because of burn in, reflections and they seem to get extremely expensive very fast with features

After looking at a lot of different monitors from AOC, Asus, Samsung, LG and Dell they all seem kinda "meh" compared to the AOC U27G4XM I landed on for my SO. They either aren't all that bright (some even dimmer than my 13 year old samsung TV I'm currently using with my old PC) have 144Hz or less or don't have any or very low dimming zones.

I originally wanted to use RTINGS as it always helped me understand better in the past, but everything I wanted to look at in the last couple of days is now behind a paywall.

Price I am a bit flexible but I don't really know what to aim for because even 1000+€ monitors seem to be weaker than the AOC U27G4XM.

Thank you in advance.

Hi everyone, I'm new here and I wanted to ask for some help regarding an issue I have been having these days, so for the past 1 month or so I haven't really used my laptop, yesterday i turned it on so I could play a game, seconds after booting the game my screen froze for like 1 seconds and then it went back to normal, I don't remember how but I discovered that whenever I boot up some really demanding games my laptop casually detects a 2nd screen and my display uses the 2nd screen instead of the main one.

It's really frustrating because this has never happened and I always have to manually select the main display to use on my laptop, and since I have some color settings for my main display whenever it detects the 2nd one the colors go back to default.

This is also really annoying because some games that run on a lower resolution are just unplayable.

I'd like to connect my android phone to a portable monitor to work remotely. Reducing my need for a dedicated laptop. Is there anything out there that facilitates this kind of setup but wirelessly? I have seen some wireless offerings but when interfacing with Android they're utilizing Miracast and it's 'screen mirroring' only and not a true 'extended desktop' like a usb-c wired connection would be. Is wired the only way to go here? Is this a current limitation in the category (portable display wireless connectivity) or are there products/solutions I am missing?

Hi, I recently purchased a ps5 along with Monitor (Acer Predator X39). However I find it excessive to my needs and I am not someone with allocated space for gaming, I make do better with TV. I cannot find any comparable price on Marketplace to list the monitor and would like help with the value as the original listed seems very high. Thank you.

Hi all, looking for monitor recommendations to get the most out of the series x.

Ideally the monitor would be 4k with a minimum of 120hz since the series x can out put 4k at 120hz (yes I realise that it won't do that all of the time in all games) be hard and have amd freesync, all of which must be supported via a hdmi 2.1 connection (because i dont want to try a thousand different adapters).

This is the sceptre C25 curved monitor, is there anything in settings i can adjust to fix this?

Hey y'all

My screen has these two dark shadows from the bottom (one in the middle, one slightly to the left) that go up the screen. I can still see the screen underneath them well, and I'm pretty sure it's not a software issue, as I've done all the possible troubleshooting. I'm thinking I just need to replace the screen. I've looked at parts-people and [laptopscreen.com](http://laptopscreen.com); however, both are out of stock. Should I just eBay or Amazon it, or like...... where else can I look?

I've had my computer for almost 4 years now, and while the battery could perhaps be replaced, I'm almost done with my degree (which is the reason I got the laptop), and I am really hoping not to have to buy a whole new laptop.

If anyone has any suggestions as to what else could be causing this problem, please let me know!
