It doesn't matter if you're running the monitor with G-Sync on or off, off the iGPU or dedicated. Out of curiosity, I plugged the ROG Swift PG279q to the HDMI 1.4 output of my Z170 motherboard to use the Intel HD 530 iGPU and the problem still persists. The weirdest thing is, after I've done some research on the panel this monitor and the Acer monitor uses, I deduced that it was a problem related to NVIDIA G-Sync. "Went through a hefty handful of replacements to get the 3 I have, problems ranging from dirt behind the screens, light literally shining out the side of the bezel on the monitor like a flashlight, even got 1 that was scratched and fingerprinted all over the screen"

really they should just be sending me and most other people new monitors especially considering I just purchased these mid July and they already knew about the problem then and just didn't say much or anything about it and still let sales go through and that's with them still being in denial about their quality control issues. Basically every single monitor "PG279Q" out from September 2016? going back has this issue, its not exclusive to Asus, Acer is also having this issue.īut yeah as stated before on my end of things, 2400 dollars invested in 3 of these and the solution to fix problems is ship them back.
