Hey :)

Lately, I've noticed that something is wrong with my monitor and it's usually very visible on a white background (doesn't bother me during gaming or watching a movie tho).

It's visible only when my sight/head is on the same level as the stripes, when I'm far above then it's not that much noticeable.

I've changed the ports from DP to HDMI and tried different ports and even other cables. On the second monitor, it's not visible so the problem lies within the Aorus one.
Does it mean my display is slowly dying :( ?

Picture of the problem below:

Are the scratches on the panel's surface or underneath the protective film on the panel? If the latter, and you're under warranty, then you should get it RMA'd if the issue cropped up recently.

Unfortunately, the scratches are underneath and the warranty ended last year :(
Is there a chance it will eventually spread over the rest of the display?
