I have an Asus Swift PG278QR monitor.
SPECS: https://rog.asus.com/monitors/27-to-31-5-inches/rog-swift-pg278qr-model/spec/
It was working fine, until more than a month ago it started to present a problem.
It is somewhat difficult to explain and even to take a photo or video of it, but I will explain it as best as possible:
It has very thin lines (of less than 0.5mm) of a semi-transparent tone, across the entire bottom quarter of the screen, which at some frequencies (60 to 144Hz) caused the image to flicker slightly. A few days later, this symptom disappeared and the monitor kept working as it should.
But a few days ago the same symptom returned, but this time worse, since now it covers 3 quarters of the screen from bottom to top, and the slight flickering at certain frequencies also happens. I will attach a photo to try to show the problem.
* What I’ve checked so far:
- The Power Adapter (https://forums.tomshardware.com/thr...c-adapter-compatibility.3791176/post-22899452).
- The D-Port cable.
- The HDMI cable.
- I have plugged it into other wall outlets.
- I have connected it to other PCs.
- Activation and deactivation of G-Sync.
- Tested on different resolutions.
-- In all of these cases it makes the same symptom.
** Did not open the monitor.
What do you think about it? I appreciate any help.
Thanks a lot.
