Hi guys,
got the above monitor today from OCUK (fine delivery again).
Just set it up upstairs and there isn't a power cable in the box!!! do they expect everyone to have a kettle lead hanging around? or is there supposed to be one in the box?? gutted! thank god for my laptop!
anyone know if there is supposed to be one?!
cheers
 
just googled and it looks as if there isn't one supplied... which is absolutely dire...
OCUK should mention it on there site as I have spent £340 on a monitor that I can't use until I get a cable now...
not very happy :mad:
 
hi guys, cheers for the replies... didn't get a seperate box. But I managed to track a power cable down.. got one with my 580w Tagan PSU which I never used.... managed to find it in the bottom of a box in the loft... so all is well :D

monitor is incredible by the way!!
 
erm... none that I can see....
do you mean a white glow? got that on mine at work, but not this one..... is it something that happens over time?
:confused:
 
just tried the black screen thingy and noticed that the bottom left seems ever so slightly lighter than the rest... only that corner though... it a bad thing? is it likely to get worse?
 
plop :(

ah well... only spotted it on the loading screen for Far Cry...
I know that if I send it back I am likely to get one back with no bleeding but with a dead pixel.... of which I have none at the moment...
will have to live with it I think..
 
hmmm it seems the longer the monitor is on for the worse it becomes.. its actually spreading from the bottom left toward the middle now, and bearing in mind I do a lot of photoshop and graphic work with my PC its seriously going to affect my perception of colours..
If I send this back is there any way I can just get my cash back? didn't realise the monitor was so susceptible to faults... !

I think it is fair to say that buying a 20" WS monitor without fault is like searching for the Holy Grail at the moment.

but is it just 20" ones? if i got a 17" or a 24" would I not get the same problems?
