Re: Asus XG258 Questionable Overdrive

Once again, thanks for the info. Off topic again -- Has anyone found a mount for this? Looking around it looks like because of the circle at the back most vesa mounts won't fit in it. I had a breif look at non-vesa version that grip the bezel but most seem to overlap and block the display a little.....

Re: Asus XG258 Questionable Overdrive

Thanks for clearing that up quickly. I did get it up to 260Hz but it seemed to have not liked it after a while. 'no display' on screen.

Re: Asus XG258 Questionable Overdrive

Hello, I have used Benq XL2411, 144Hz, AMA: high, overshoot is noticeable, but i can live with it. Does the Asus XG258Q have better 240Hz overdrive at OD3 level than Benq AMA: high, same or more overshoot? Don't take my word for it but I imagine the Benq is miles better regarding overshoot. Notty l...

Re: Asus XG258 Questionable Overdrive

Embarrassingly since never seeing G-Sync/Freesync until now, the way it was advertised and reviewed ("smooth" etc) I got the impression it was something more impressive or magical than just eliminating tearing... I haven't had any games yet that are tearing enough to test it out.

Re: Asus XG258 Questionable Overdrive

I cannot tell the difference with Freesync enabled (nvidia GPU) either. I disable it in FPS games but I have tried enabling it in demanding single player games and it looks the same to me. I can see the Hz of the monitor fluctuating so it must be working...but again it looks no different.

Re: Asus XG258 Questionable Overdrive

I held on to it instead of returning, It's now past 30 days on eBay, doubt I can return it without a fight. I was hoping I'd get used to it but I still think the default (3) overdrive is unacceptable. 3 is poor so what's the point of having 4 and 5 when at those settings it gives games a terrible co...

Re: Asus XG258 Questionable Overdrive

I have the Asus Display Widget installed. I don't know it that's to blame but it just switched to 'Racing' on its own. And no, I didn't turn on the blue light filter..

Re: Asus XG258 Questionable Overdrive

I don't understand Notty. He doesn't accept VG258QR overdrive but accepts XG258Q overdrive. Are you activating blue light filter? On my monitor it switches to racing profile when I turn it 'on'. Yes. That might be it. Pretty stupid. I cannot change the brightness in racing mode...what's the point o...

Re: Asus XG258 Questionable Overdrive

I received an XG258Q in for testing last week (July 2018 build) and agree the overdrive/overshoot is unacceptable for me personally. The overshoot issues are particularly bad in Apex Legends where it's really obvious on every tree/rock/wall edge/etc. I can confirm it is very fast with regards to in...
