its on the right center about a inch thick like loads of little thin and thick lines only for 1 sec then its gone its happens a very odd time one or twice a day
i had this happen on my first monitor so i got it replaced this is my 2ed Ben Q BL3201PT so im sure it cant be the monitor
ive made sure the GPUs seated properly
i now have Titan X sli but i did not have it before the first monitor i got the 2ed card after i got the replacement monitor

i do have my cards overclocked

i got this today but it dont fit the casing is to big http://www.amazon.co.uk/LINDY-2m-CR..._sim_ce_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=04NQQGHMM40F82C6K2MD

so i reorder the same one buy mini so hopefully it should fix the problem
its not a major problem but its annoying when you got a new monitor and 2 new GPUs

any input guys?

yeah its just annoying when you paid a lot for it getting stuff like this happen
never had it with my Iiyama XB2779QS-B1 27inch 1440p
i just got a new cable http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B007FKMVKK?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00
hoping this dose fix it

if your still getting it with your good quality cables its the monitors, this is my 2ed one
i was inbetween this and the Acer 32Inch B326HK
or do all monitors have stuff like this happen?
just hope it dont start to get worst

well i think ive fixed mine or reduced it a lot
it was happening a lot few times a day, with the cable out the box, i got a new mini DP cable it was like once a day maybe http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B...ilpage_o00_s01
put the original cable back in it happened a lot more

but then i got a full size DP cable on each side http://www.lindy.co.uk/cables-adapte...rt-cable-p7749
the cromo range will not fit this monitor
ive not seen it happen in 3 days or if it has ive not noteist it, i think it could be the cable out the box being cheap and being mini at the end
has any one els done this really worth giveing it a try
i was going to take this back but i did not want to as its really a good monitor and lots of good reviews about it

i may of seen it im not sure if i did or my mind playing tricks lol
but not seen it since this new cable
http://www.lindy.co.uk/cables-adapt...c113/1m-3dtv-1080p-4k-displayport-cable-p7749
they have a cromo range witch is not much more but the HUD is to big to fit into the monitor, this is my 3th cable seems to be the best other 2 were mini DP
allso if the cable is over 2 meters its not good lindiy told me on a email no cable over 2 meter is DP certified, so i got a 1 meter one to be safe
whats the AMA overdrive?

no its to big i had to send it back, the black cable is DP certified aswell,
i think there the same cable just different heads
i had the cromo mini that was good but wanted to try the full size one
i had the flash befor but only had it 2 times since Friday so not to bad really
this is the best 32inch 4K so looks like ill keep it untill a 4k 40inch G-sync

what GPU are you useing some people dont seem to get this problem
