XL2540/XL2546 owners, is this amount of overshoot normal?

AMA is on high and I'm getting noticeable overshoot on black text with certain colored background such as on this site itself

This test shows the effect very well

Hey! Here are my XL2546 photos with AMA High and Premium (without DyAc).
High - https://ibb.co/rbJBX5P
Premium - https://ibb.co/F0r9ckn

Websites always have some overshoot when scrolling pages like on your image.

Thanks, I appreciate the reply
Looks similar to mine

Do you also happen to notice discoloration like in this video I recorded?

You can see the grey line turn green while scrolling

Can't see much on your video, but I think understand what are you talking about. I guess, the color of the line affected by overshoot.

Yes it's happening too. Not a big deal for me since I bought this monitor for gaming only.

I'm using settings from this displaylag review (Contrast: 50): https://displaylag.com/benq-zowie-xl254 ... g-monitor/
Cannot say anything about their confidence, but colors still better than stock.
