3 months of having this monitor i have a Vertical line going down the left side of my screen. not sure what to do with it at this point then other call up Asus. this monitor was to replace ANOTHER asus monitor that arrived DOA Update: Called Asus support to have it RMA. they do NOT cover shipping cost, and due to the size of the monitor it came to a total of $137 Dollars to ship it to them. Which will take 5 buissness days, their turn around is 5-7 business days and another 5-7 business days to ship it back. This is absolutely unacceptable for a monitor at this price. 500 dollar monitor to be defective within 3 months of use and another 137 to SHIP it to them to get fixed. I will never buy an Asus product again.

I think everyone reads text on a monitor, so I cant imagine this is a good monitor for anyone. Everyone knows about the "panel lottery" issue with these panels, so lets disregard that and assume you win the lottery and get a fantastic panel. This monitor is still bad. Heres the issue: The default "mode" the monitor is in is called "racing mode." If you look around on review and calibration websites you will find that this is the "best" mode because it has the most accurate colors. Its the only mode with accurate gamma - every other mode on the monitor is wrong. There is *no* way to adjust the gamma in any mode. Now heres the real issue: For some unknown reason the monitor will not let you adjust the Sharpness in racing mode, and the preset sharpness is a smidge too low. It gives the picture a soft, slightly blurry look. This would be bearable if it werent for text: text is blurry and will strain your eyes and give you a headache to read for extended periods. There are some other modes on the monitor that unlock Sharpness, but they all have wrong colors and the gamma isnt configurable at all. I was able to confirm sharpness was the issue by switching to one of these modes and turning up the sharpness by 10 on my mac, and 20 on my Windows machine. At that point, on windows, everything else was actually too sharp, so there was no "perfect" setting for both computers I would use this monitor for. Even more peculiar is that you shouldnt have to adjust the sharpness: it should be 1:1 with the output signal, but for some reason on this monitor it isnt. At the same time, who decided to lock down certain settings on certain modes? The world may never know.
