Hi all - my first post
i had mine delievered 2 days ago,
mine came with an AU-M240UW01-V2 - its a A-MVA Panel any good?
here is the picture of the monitor, i was trying to check for bledding problem, cant really see if there is one, but this photo sows as if there is ligher patches at each sides.
please let me know what you think.
other than that i dont have any other problems, this is monitor is BIG lol, i moved from a 20". Picture is suberb
EDIT:
ok these photos make the screen look worse for some reason, here is screenshot while i was working on photoshop

A-MVA
Advanced MVA (A-MVA) - Next Generation VA Technology
AU Optronics have recently been working on their next generation of MVA panel technology, termed 'Advanced MVA' (A-MVA). This is designed to offer improved performance including reduced colour washout conquer the significant problem of color distortion with traditional wide viewing angle technology. This technology creates more domains than conventional multi-domain vertical alignment (MVA) LCDs and reduces the variation of transmittance in oblique angles. It productively improves color washout and provides better image quality in oblique angles than conventional VA LCDs. Also, it has been widely recognized worldwide that AMVA technology is one of the few ways to provide optimized image quality through multiple domains.
In addition, A-MVA provides an extra-high contrast ratio of greater than 1200:1 (reaching 2500:1 at time of writing) by optimized color-resist implementation and a new pixel design. The result is a more comfortable viewing experience for the consumer, even on dimmer images. This high contrast technology can also achieve wide viewing angles of up to 178 degrees. AMVA, which the Company believes to be the most competitive solution in low color washout technology, has been applied to AUO TV panels ranging from 32" up to 42", and has attracted widespread attention among global brand-name TV customers in the United States, Europe and Japan.
---- I am felling pretty good after i read this. lol

How does that relate to this specific monitor?
Ah, nevermind. Just seen your screen is an 'A-MVA'.
The article threw me a bit saying the tech's only incorporated into screens from 32" - 42".

Thanks for responses guys - Monitor arrived today and i'm really impressed by how much it has improved my gaming experience.
Just ran Bioshock, Oblivion, Half Life 2 Episode 2 (on 1440x900 to start with, as advised) - so far extremely happy with what i paid for, adds much needed increase in performance and quality to games with no discernible faults.
After reading some posts on here i wasn't expecting something as good as this!
Gotta say thanks again!

lol yea the i got came with an A-MVA panel.
guys has anyone see any bledding problems with the monitor, the pictures above i posted.
also i be interestd to see what the setting you got now i.e
Contrast, Brightness, Colour Setting (REd, Green, Blue) on the monitor
at present i got:
Brightness: 50
Contrast: 57
R/G/B : 53 each.
thanks
Your pictures seem fine. And regarding backlight bleed: are you asking other people to tell you if you have any problems? Surely, you, the owner, is the best person to tell us, whether or not the image quality of your monitor is good or not?
The settings you choose should be what you like. Other people have reported that when using identical settings on 2 of these monitors, the images appear different. From this we can deduce that each monitor is not perfectly identical and hence must be set up on its own and not using someone elses settings.
FWIW, when I copied someone elses settings on my monitor, I found the image quality far too bright, to the extent that it hurt my eyes. Hence, its best if you trust your own eyes rather than someone elses.
Hi sunama,
yea i looked for bledding problems, i could not see any such problem as far as my knowledge lol. thats y i posed a picture to see if anyone anyone has different opinion.
also i think, when you referer to these monitor being not identical is coz they use a variaety of panels Prem-MVA, A-MVA, S-PVA. With mva and pva being slightly different technologies, i would expect difference colour production, but i am sure people with A-MVA panels can do with the same setting, specially if they used a hardware calibration tool such as Spider3Pro.
Thanks.
HI there
All OcUK can guarantee is that all our stock are now VA panels which are superior too TN panels. However can't guarantee any particular type of VA panel as thats just not possible sorry.
I think earlier in this thread someone had 2 monitors. Apparently they had panels with identical model numbers (I could be wrong on this), but they did not perform identically, when given identical settings.
Also, from the postings, you seem to be one of the few who have a A-MVA panel.
Hi Gibbo,
i wasn't complaining about haveing different types of VA panels. hehe, i was just answering to sunama post about haveing different settings, i thought because of the different types and manfactures of the VA panels these monitors have, the colour production mabe be different.
but a quick question is it not wired DGM went with 3 different of types VA panles with this 24" model.
also Gibbo If there were to develop a problem with Monitor, under then DGM Warrenty, They will have to replace like to like right. i mean they will have replace with VA panel model . Please let me know.

p4radox you have a Premium-MVA panel, which infact is a VA panel.
Thanks.
I could tell it was a VA (in fact the previous owner guaranteed it) but I didn't know exactly what type. Just out of interest, what part of the serial number corresponds to the panel type?

if you seach for panel model number you got from 'Menu' and '+', it tell you which manfacture and waht type of panel. W01 (VA) and W04 (TN) for AU Panels, i think thats right
