My Monitor is being weird

[Justin van Dongen]

Hi! I just got my second monitor. But somehow my second monitor has a bit of a yellow color. I called the store where I bought it and they told me to search online for this problem. Absolute shit store. But anyways. How to fix this problem:

On my first monitor (BenQ DDL2215) it shows the color WHITE correctly. But on my second BenQ GL2215H it doesn't. I tried making the color yellow less on the monitor but that didn't work out.

Thanks!

I think the color calibration is the main issue here. Try X-Rite color calibration tool: https://www.amazon.com/X-Rite-CMUNSML-ColorMunki-Smile/dp/B009APMNB0

That's expensive for a calibration software. I mean the monitor itself was only $125 but spending 90$ on calibration? Isn't there a free solution?

Apparently this thread says that your graphics card's panel might have something for you to calibration of the colors of screens: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/278841-33-dual-monitor-color-calibration
