In my case it seems to only apply if the unit has more than 5 dead pixels which mine does not. Unless I'm reading the policy incorrectly in which case I have till Monday to do something about it.
I find it shocking that they would allow their first batch to have so many dead/dark pixels. I was really excited for this and the panel is truly beautiful but I'm definitely heart broken that I got such a bad panel.
I'm going to try to exchange mine for another at newegg if that's possible. If I'm paying $800 for a monitor I expect it to at least meet 'Pixel Perfect'. I wont accept anything less.

look over your monitor on each color.
White will show you all the dead/dark pixels
Keep in mind with 109 PPI, it can look like a spec of dust on your monitor. I use a microfiber cloth to make sure it isn't dust.
. Gamma is shit out of the box (too washed out, can be fixed in nvidia control panel), panel uniformity is acceptable for me. Rest of monitor is really great (ULMB@1440p@120Hz in Dota2 is simply amazing). Is inversion a panel feature or can be changed/improved with firmware upgrade?
