After being on for few minutes, it will quickly turn black (with the backlight and blue light still on, indicating that it is still receiving signal from GPU). If I turn it off and turn it back on, it usually comes back but goes black within minutes and, more often, seconds. Anyone have this issue on a Korean 27" monitor (and hopefully resolved it?) Actually scratch all of that. The backlight is working so I'm assuming it will kind of works. Two things to check: - Check your drivers/driver settings. - Check the actual LCD panel. I don't mean DVI, I mean the actual cable that connects the LCD to the relevant electronics. It could be loose. | ||

That being said, if you arent the type of person that is bothered by tearing or dont even notice it, then all of that is completely lost on you. | ||

If you must, the best options are the Asus (matte and can apparently run at 144hz) or Samsung 27" versions of the examples in the OP (glossy). | ||

I saw a monitor on a local shop with a crazy price, it's the Hanns.G HS233H3B. It's normally around 300$, and with their price it's only like 160$ for maybe 2 weeks. Is it a good one? I won't hesitate for a 120hz monitor of this price but I can't find a lot of things about this one on internet... I actually have an Asus VE228T, cheap monitor but with my GTX670, I find it a bit of a waste to have a 60hz monitor :D I don't have the money to spend on a 400$ monitor like the BenQ XL2420T, so if someone answer me, consider the fact that i'm not really rich and not saying "it's a shit monitor compared to the 600$ Asus Xderp30". Thanks! | ||

So I'm thinking of picking up a new monitor, doesn't have to be big, a resolution like 1280x1024 is perfectly fine for me. The catch is though, that the current monitor I think wasn't exactly designed for gaming, it's an emachine monitor that's something like 1366x768, and I think it's contributing to my deteriorating eyesight. Can you guys explain to me what monitors are good for eyesight and why? What are some monitors of this type? | ||

I believe most calibration tools come with software that forces icc profiles to be loaded at all times. I am not 100% certain but I'm sure calibration software does this. Maybe try this out...if you don't want I buy calibration tools. No idea if games will still fuck you up but try it out f you haven't already I tried the 2nd option but still doesn't stick in games. Couldn't find any LUT loaders that worked either. Thanks for the tips though. Well, I might just buy a calibrator at some point. Thankfully, with a bit of adjustment, this VG236H still looks good in games even without the ICC profile. I keep in standard mode with color temp settings of R88 G68-70 B100; probably not the best but gets rid of the massive green tint, and then some red reduction is necessary because the image becomes too pink. With all that said in mind, I've been thinking more about how I'm having a hard time recommending the BenQ monitors to anyone - because their factory gamma is so bad - I would imagine that would lead to some pretty nasty black crush and generally poor contrast among many shades. I sure wouldn't want to play games on that, but maybe it just bothers me more than most. | ||
