34UC88 Image Retention

Was pretty adamant I didn't have this, but just noticed it after leaving on a light coloured forum for a while. :(

The trouble is, what else is there that ticks the boxes?

3440x1440, 75hz, IPS, Freesync.

Happy to hear there's another option but I could see one when buying!
 
Mines at 60hz at the moment I think as I get random black screens on desktop if I have it at 75 with freesync enabled while on the desktop. I'll check tonight.

So far this screen hasn't lived up to what I hoped, just like both acers but I noticed those issues within the dsr(or what ever it's called now) period.

I bought an xf2770hu which had this problem and it was REALLY bad. it would burn in what had been shown after only a few minutes.

Acer were more than useless at fixing it (said they had first time (they had not), then said they couldn't see the problem which was just a bare faced lie) so it went back.

I don't think this is in any way normal for a modern led screen. Yes things might ghost after being displayed for hours but it shouldn't happen after only a few minutes.

Yeh a few hours I could understand and wouldn't be normal operation (though my dell has no issues).

I am still hoping for Daniel to replay to this thread again, hopefully with any info around this. If it is fixable then I don't mind sending in back to be fixed but if its not then I don't want to be with out a screen again for an extended period of time for no reason again.
