Questions about new G-Sync monitor

[parini]

It is very visible at 0:16

Thanks for the video parini.

I see a couple of brightness fluctuation across the whole screen at the 0:16 mark, is that what you're talking about? I'm assuming this doesn't happen with G-SYNC off?

If so, I'm not sure what that is.

[parini]

With gsync turned off, this does not happen.

What is your framerate when this happens?

[jorimt]

Also, do you have "Dark Boost" or "Adaptive Contrast" enabled in the monitor menus? If you do, try disabling those.

100fps Where are these options?

[jorimt]

In your monitor menu, here's an image from the manual (ignore the brightness and contrast numbers):

I found here both are disabled.

[jorimt]

If you disabled both of those, and you were at 100 FPS when that happened in the video, I don't know what it is.

G-SYNC can flicker at low framerates (30 FPS or under) on some TN panels, but the brightness doesn't fluctuate like your video.

It could be your monitor. I would not go so far as to say it is faulty or broken though.

Have you contacted Acer and shown them the issue?

[parini]

I have not warned them yet.
