Its OD level inbetween 60 and 80 for VG259QM.
On VG279QM is inbetween 80-100, more like OD85/90.

yeah using VG259QM , in rtings website it says OD 60 its better than OD 120 and OD 80 not sure which is the best, i trust this forum, which is the most optimal settings?
once you on 120OD is your monitor able to change back to default OD 60 or OD 80?

Don't listen to RTings.
OD120 is arguably the best overdrive at 280hz, especially if you use ShadowBoost since it looks like only the darkest transition seem to suffer from overshoot and equalizing dark levels can effectively remove overshoot even further.
OD80 is a good alternative, IMO there is a little bit too much overshoot but it's definitely usable.

Can anyone tell me a bit more regarding VividPixel? I really like this monitor and have tried using 25-50 on the setting, but having seen mosts from a few years back regarding VividPixel on older ASUS models it was suggested it may increase the response time. If anyone is knowledgeable on this I'd greatly appreciate some information.
Thanks

Thanks, nice find! I wil try it in game and looks how this "OD 120" feels, at ufotest for me it looks like between OD 60 and OD 80.
Must be a bug in the FW nevertheless it could be very useful, will report later.
Good idea to make a exclusive thread for the VG259QM, btw I have FW MCM104 also.
I cant change mine to 120 od, whenever i press od strong weak off, and press exit or leave, there is no 120 od option and it always resets to od strong on. What do I do?
