Hi ya guys (long, long time lurker here but 1st time poster)

Just got one of these from another supplier (OcUK didn't have stock). Terrible light bleed from all sides, flicker on start up, and an oval shadow constanly in the center of the screen. I'm gonna send it back but just wondered if any of you guys had any thoughts? (5750-DVI)

On a positive note, tower is a Titan Nero. Totaly impressed so far. Was despatched the same day I ordered. Realy happy with it. Just wondered if I may have a wrong setting somewhere (I doubt). Thoughts? :confused:
 
hmm... I have one of these and am a fan given the price. I will be honest and say there is some (very little light bleed) at the bottom but that is it - no flicker or shadow in centre.

I would get it replaced.
 
yeh i think you got unlucky, i also use DVI with a 285GTX though.
I have not noticed any of the mentioned problems however. Been working flawlessly every since I got it. Only some slight ghosting given the right circumstance.
 
Thanks for the replies guys, it actually seems to have settled down now. Light bleed is still there on a black back-ground but the "Eclipse" seems to have gone. Maybe a burn-in/new product issue. On a Google search there was a guy that recommended "Massaging the screen" to "Even the liquid". WTF? :eek:

(No I didn't try it lol)
 
ok i have same screen and it has terrible light bleeding issue. sure enough i massaged the screen like it says here and it reduced it. crazy ive got to do it tho

I brought a Viewsonic VX2260wm and because the light bleed was so bad, I ended sending it back for a replacement. My 2nd and 3rd replacements had terrible light bleeding and in the end I gave up and got a refund.

Shame really as the picture was great and if it wasn't for the single issue, then I would have keep it.

Ended up getting a BenQ G2420HDBL 24" 1080p Widescreen LED Monitor which has pretty much no light bleeding at all and the picture quality is amazing.
