Update: The monitor has been tested with a new VESA-certified 2m DisplayPort cable on two different computers, with the exact same issue. System goes as far as to detect its name and identify it as a G-sync capable display, but any attempts to save any stock or custom configuration fail. Nothing oth...

Thank you for the in-depth explanations! It took me a while to read over this slowly, but am I glad that I cancelled the order on a 240hz Zowie for now. Looks like more goodies are coming soon! Although I feel like I should clarify something: By "frame time" I did not mean image persistence. I meant...

It still shows up as a potential display, but no settings can be saved with any computer configuration, leading me to believe that the some of the DisplayPort's sockets are broke...

Hey, great work guys thanks so much for all the information. These forums are my absolute go-to for everything display-related, and I finally got around to making an account! This post may have just saved me a lot of money. I am in the same boat as the op. However from what I am reading here, I find...
