** HERE COME ASUS WITH THEIR 4K 28" OFFERING!! **

[Ragnahex]

thank god i am not alone... tried gaming on it and losing your monitor for a second does affect online gaming a fair bit

 

[whyscotty]

Aye, it's not good

 

[delpy8]

Oh and me I got the popping sound is it from the speakers? Or is it an issue

 

[delpy8]

So what do you think of your 4K monitor delpy8.

Yes very nice indeed but a bit worried now about this popping issue

 

[delpy8]

yeah i had to change from 1.1 to 1.2.... unfortunatly mine does a loud popping noise and cuts signal for a second so looks like i will switch cables and if not it will be a return for this one. Other than that when it's working it does look damn nice

Is it only popping when connecting the dp to the connection on the monitor or are you getting it when connected it to gfx card as I'm sure I've had it when either connecting to both

 

[Ragnahex]

Mine does the popping when the signal gets cut. Could be the speakers making the sound. Have not spent too long figuring o
It out yet. What cards do people have who are suffering the signal problem? 290's here. Since it is more than just me I think I can assume it's not a cable problem anyway.

 

[delpy8]

Gigabyte 780ti ghx edition here.

 

[whyscotty]

Titans here - swapped the cable, still happens - defo a monitor thing

 

[delpy8]

I've asked the question on the Asus monitor forum to see if anyone else has an issue. And let oc know via webnote
As early adopters of these I hope it's not a first batch revision 1 problem as for £600 a pop excuse the pun I will be miffed

 

[Ragnahex]

Consider it proof of concept... A fully working one will cost us more . Hard the believe it's this common though since I doubt many have been sold. I need to learn my lesson. Straight from 290x black screen issues to monitor issues. I need to stop buying things on release day

Hi Guys

I have not come across this issue yet but delpy8 has alerted me to this thread. If anyone has any update or gets through to Asus please let me know

I certainly hope that popping sound isn't serious. Also signal cuts? Those shouldn't be there either.

That doesn't sound good. I had a 27" DGM monitor that started making a popping/crackling sound when there was no signal. It died a few weeks later...

 

[Ragnahex]

The popping and signal cuts are linked my guess is it could be the internal speaker doing the popping when it loses signal. I will have more of a play around tonight to see if I can figure it out. And since we have ruled out cabling and cards pretty much since both amd and nvidia cards have it.... Not looking good

Mines going back, Asus UK is arranging everything for me so pleased about that.

Hoping it's not a issue with the first batch of monitors.

Hi will they replace it with a brand new one?

Oh gosh, I hope this doesn't turn into another RMA Asus debacle.

 

[whyscotty]

Hi will they replace it with a brand new one?

Yes, as the good thing is there won't be any refurbs as they haven't been out long enough

Let us know how it goes, and if the issue is there on a new one as well.

Will do.

Damn annoying, apart from a couple of niggles I'm very happy with the monitor.
