Oh thanks for all of this. To start uhh, i didn't realize there were more pages to your review. On mobile its broken. There is no previous and next button at 100-120% scale. Neither the tab works on either mobile/desktop. Once a user reads or skims all the pages. They will understand what perfect is.
Broken on mobile? Egads. I must address this.

I know, the website is a bit stale. Outdated monitor lists, broken features. I'm getting those addressed in the next few weeks. A lot of things stalled this year (many dominoes involved) but the UFO is now firing up!

Hello everyone, I've owned this monitor for a long time and have been happy with it until now, due to this new issue I don't know how to deal with.

The first time I noticed something was wrong was a few days ago, where during a gaming session I noticed strange pixelization-like artifacts that were mainly visible in gray gradients (e.g. smokes). Yesterday, when I turned on my PC, the graphical issue that you can see in the photos I attached appeared. It, however, only looked like this in the BIOS and on the built-in images (like the 3 parrots logo). In Windows, the issue wasn't there and only had the previously mentioned pixelization issue (it is hard to capture with phone cam).

Firstly, I thought this might be a display port issue, so I swapped the DP cable, but the problem remained. I then changed to HDMI to see if the monitor's DP port was at fault. Unfortunately, over HDMI, the issue is now visible everywhere. No longer just the BIOS but the entire Windows as well.

Warranty is effectively out as an option, since it's been years and even the store I purchased the monitor from was closed when it was acquired by a foreign company.

If there is anything I could do to fix the issue, I would love to know. Otherwise I'll have to look for a new monitor. Thanks for any help!

Exact same issue here, luckily it hasn't spread to my desktop yet, and I have not seen anything happening in-game.

My BIOS is absolutely cooked if I try to access it, and the boot logo is doing this (looks exactly like your photo)

Looks like I will be shopping for a new monitor soon, as I believe the panel is just failing.
