Just wanted to ask, if anyone has a very recent XL2735 or XL2540, can you please try enabling blur reduction at 85hz or 60hz, and see if you get a sharp double strobing (double image) effect? Test UFO Alien Invasion is the easiest test for this.

This extreme double image effect will not appear at 100hz, 120hz, 144hz or 240hz.

(The XL2735 has DyAc enabled by default in the service menu. The XL2540 has "Blur reduction" Disabled by default.
To enter the service menu: Power off the monitor: Hold down button #4, then power on the monitor while keeping button #4 pressed. When the screen appears, release it, then press button 4 for the service menu. If any recent firmwares have a "Single Strobe" override, please post.

To enter the factory menu (that has the very useful "OD Gain" setting), hold down button #3 and #4 while powering on, then when the screen appears, release them. Button #5 enters the factory menu).

Debating on whether to get a Dell S2716DG for Gsync+ULMB if it works through the laptop's mini-DP, or "upgrade" my XL2720Z needlessly to an XL2735.
