The Asus ROG SWIFT PG278Q – a 27” 1400p 144Hz Monitor with G-SYNC

Must be a lack of comms at the moment. I contacted OCUK earlier with regards to the 3 day dead pixel policy, explained that I had ran the software fix for 12 hours straight and it wasn't shifting. As a teacher I return to work on Monday so was hoping could get this sorted asap but the reply I received was

"Dear Chris Whitney,

thank you for your webnote.

Unfortunately this monitor is not provided with a zero dead pixel warranty. So you would be unable to return the monitor for a replacement.

You are still within the 14 day DSR period were you are legally entitled to return any product as unwanted for a full refund.

Would you like to proceed under DSR?"

So I rang and have now had to drop a note on the customer support sections of the forums. Seems I may have to DSR this one and buy another one on my CC and do the whole refund thing


Yes our technical department was only informed of the update a little while ago. So our apologies, they are now updated.
 
AAA ok, i misunderstood the logic a bit. So if after how long it develops any pixel issues (and it had remained for longer than 3 days) can it be replaced then?

Yes, but limited to 28 days, I shall update our disclaimer online. Dead pixels normally manifest instantly or within days/hours.
 
Thanks Gibbo and OCUK. I have arranged collection for mine for tomorrow for a full refund and have ordered a replacement for tomorrow delivery :-).
 
I had V-Sync disabled in both games, will try it with it enabled but I'm not sure if that will solve anything.

also, try a clean installation of the latest GPU drivers and download the monitor driver from asus.

i had some issues like non working turbo button etc. until i did a clean driver installation.
 
Not bothered to download the asus driver and working flawlessly here. Would however advise to download the latest nvidia drivers if you have not already.
 
Jumped on the Swift bandwagon and received it yesterday but got a weird problem. It's happened with two applications so far, first was the G-Sync Pendulum demo and then The Crew beta. I launch the application and the monitor LED turns orange and my PC reboots. Never happened in the past with my old monitors. Anyone experienced anything similar. Interestingly I tried to run the Crew with G-Sync disabled and got an error message to say the application had stopped working.

do you have an oculus rift?
