Monitor Ghosting Problems

[Jaredb1]

I looked on the internet but the only answers i could find were about permanent Ghosting.

I recently received an ACER GN246Hl Monitor and when gaming i get ghosting around the borders of high contrast areas. Is there any settings i can change to fix it or will i need to get it replaced?

Look for a setting called 'trace free' my asus monitor has it, it helps reduce ghosting. If it has it turn it on, I set mine to 80% I found it gives the best results.

That said I wouldn't think you would see ghosting on that monitor even without trace free, it has quite low response times.

Could try playing with the v-sync settings, either gpu, game or monitor.

I have v-sync on right now... might that be causing it?

V-sync is funky to say the least. If done through the monitor, you rely on the monitors programming to fix the input to 60Hz no matter how high, but if input drops too far below, it'll swap to 30Hz etc. V-sync in game is probably the best since it demands the gpu use v-sync, which is probably better suited to that than a monitor. V-sync set on gpu will affect every game the same. But it's not a standard thing, v-sync affects different games at different rates on different gpus, so what's good for 1 pc might be a disaster on another.

I'd try turning off v-sync, playing with detail settings, etc
