M28U - overshoot problem - feedback appreciated

[replicant2097]

Hi all

I've got a Gigabyte M28U which I really like except I'm finding the overshoot quite noticeable.

The guys at OCUK have kindly arranged an RMA for a refund, but if I'm honest I'd prefer to get a replacement as opinions in the wild are positive and I've not heard anyone mention this issue. I've tried all Overdrive settings.

Just looking to gather a few opinions here on how it is with your new monitors.

Not my pic, just an example of what I mean by overshoot. thanks!

If it does this with no overdrive then maybe a faulty monitor. Unusual for an IPS to have this issue. Does it only do it on dark to light transitions? I have in the past had issues with monitors having problems especially with dark images on light backgrounds. I had Smudging, trails behind the image but I have only seen it badly on VA panels.

That Gigabyte has whacked up RTC settings with overshoot in every setting:

"Smart OD" might be best compromise.
"Picture Qaulity" starts already adding overshoot to everything.
