Is this a dead pixel?
Recently I picked up a Dell S2417DG last week and it has been really fantastic for my gaming. While the monitor looked great when it arrived, I noticed today in the top right corner of my screen a strange dark spot. Most dead pixels I've experienced before are completely black, yet this spot is almo...

Re: Faint horizontal scan lines at 144/120 hz
Let us know how it goes -- it would be good to hear your impressions! That is some good pixel density, which gets taking some used to. For 24" 1440p, use a lower-density DPI setting for Windows to make text almost "Retina-like" resolution, and you can easily turn down/off AA to get more framerate s...

Hoping it'll be a great monitor for years to come. I can always turn down some settings to really crank the FPS out, or use the lower FPS and G-Syn...

Re: Faint horizontal scan lines at 144/120 hz
The VG248QE came out in year 2013 and is one of the first popular LightBoost-capable monitors, has had shown that artifact on many samples. It's very common on VG248QE's as a panel lottery issue (you can try a return, but I've seen users get it 3 consecutive times, on different corners) and many ol...

Faint horizontal scan lines at 144/120 hz
Hoping I can get some advice on whether to return a monitor. I built a new gaming rig last week with a GTX 1080, and finally took a step into the 144hz world with an ASUS 24" VG248QE. The monitor looks great aside from some very faint horizontal scan lines in the bottom left quarter of the screen. T...
