Acer Nitro XV252Q Z, lines between UFOs on ghosting test.

Post by Eurobeat » 23 Jul 2022, 01:26

Ran the ghosting test on stock settings and I'm getting lines like on the picture that I screen grabbed from a slow mo off my phone. Sometimes the waves appear in the middle and are wavy. The lines are extremely visible to my eyes even without the slow mo. The effect is even worse when VRB is on. Also getting pretty severe image retention from the sync track as checkerboard patterns across my screen. Neither of these problems are showing when I plug in my previous monitor the acer kg241qs so I don't think it's hardware related.

I have ultra low latency on and overdrive on normal with the panel at 240hz. I've tried messing around with the settings and brightness as well as contrast and nothing seems to help.

Do I return it or is this normal?

Thanks guys!
