I'm torn about the XG258Q. It does offer objectively better performance metrics for me in Aim Lab over my 144hz monitors.

Wish I could find an acceptable trade off for the overdrive settings.

Observed in Test UFO with my sample;

OD level 3 gives very obvious colourful shadowy overshoot which ...

Damn it. I wish I'd have known that the settings stick even after a factory reset from within that menu. I just learned about this F menu and accidentally altered random RGB values (quite easy to do if it's your first time navigating.), but assumed they'd reset, so I wasn't fussed at the time. A lot ...

My display has several scratches on it.

Even though I thought this would happen I chanced using 'Displex Scratch Remover' with a microfibre cloth attached to a Dremel bit (slow setting.) It of course just started to make the area glossy with no noticeable scratch reduction so I stopped. I'd say ...

What settings are you people using for the best picture for single player games where OD and such doesn't matter?

Any to Notty_PT:

Are you still using those exact settings for competitive play?
You mention here 'Color Temp - User mode'

But in this thread you said 'normal'. Which is it?:

I have the same issue. But it only happens occasionally. When it happens it doesn't show up on any other monitor, so it's the display I highly assume. Can't be bothered linking it another machine and waiting days for it to happen. Not quite sure what triggers it either.

Here's my issue:

Ah yes, of course. I haven't touched my monitor since I started this thread. I have a terrible memory.

I just noticed DisplayWidget isn't working for me now. "Selected monitor not supported". Strange because I used it the other day to re-apply notty's settings because I saved over it by accident ...

Yes.

I don't think he mentioned DDC/CI. I don't even see those in my monitor options.

Did you download it from the correct page?

Here's the file if you use 'ASUS DisplayWidget':

It isn't fit for sale in my books. On very basic graphical games like QL/TFC/CS 1.6 you can deal with OD 3. But modern titles look like turd even at OD 2, as you said. 3 is unusable. I've been playing Hunt: Showdown and OD 3 is unplayable.

I might jump on the ASUS forums and give the monitor a ...

Hi, thanks. Yeah, got one now: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B018W6LA8E/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Although, the Freddie Ikea desk isn't compatible with it since you cannot tighten the clamp. I couldn't be bothered returning it since it was partly my faultand it was ...
