I just got this monitor, and I'm having trouble with it when I set it to anything over 60Hz. I get some REALLY bad screen tear, and it's green. Help?

As someone else posted make sure you are using the Dual Link cable that came with your monitor it will allow you to use it at 144hz.. don't use a HDMI if you want high Hz if you have nvidia graphics card open up your nvidia control panel and goto display, screen resolution and set your refresh rate higher I don't own amd so I cant tell you what to click on in the catalyst control center to set it up but google can and if anything make sure to use vsync if your getting tearing but that's usually caused by low hz so get the dual link cable installed without any splitters or adapters and you should be fine As someone else posted make sure you are using the Dual Link cable that came with your monitor it will allow you to use it at 144hz.. don't use a HDMI if you want high Hz if you have nvidia graphics card open up your nvidia control panel and goto display, screen resolution and set your refresh rate higher I don't own amd so I cant tell you what to click on in the catalyst control center to set it up but google can and if anything make sure to use vsync if your getting tearing but that's usually caused by low hz so get the dual link cable installed without any splitters or adapters and you... » Read More As someone else posted make sure you are using the Dual Link cable that came with your monitor it will allow you to use it at 144hz.. don't use a HDMI if you want high Hz if you have nvidia graphics card open up your nvidia control panel and goto display, screen resolution and set your refresh rate higher I don't own amd so I cant tell you what to click on in the catalyst control center to set it up but google can and if anything make sure to use vsync if your getting tearing but that's usually caused by low hz so get the dual link cable installed without any splitters or adapters and you should be fine « Show Less

Not sure yet. I'll let you know tomorrow after Christmas when my son sets it up

Update drivers for your graphics card, make sure you graphics card can pull over 144 frames. Run furmark, if your computer overheats then you're in big trouble.

You have to force it in your video card drivers. However, I wouldn't bank on hitting 120Hz. 90Hz might be a more realistic goal.

I really don't know the answer but reading the other responses, if it is the monitor I bought a viewsonic monitor and not having that problem.

It may be the monitor you have plugged in :) mine caps out at 1680 x 1050 ///// try plugging it into a hdmi tv :)

The panel refreshes at 120hz you can't turn it on/off. When you see "60hz" on the screen it's because that's what the source is, so far there are no 120hz sources.

I would write amazon directly and they are good about working things out. I have used my monitor for many months and have no complaints. Could be the item itself is faulty. Also try notifying the company who made it.

I don't think this is one of their "eye care" monitors. Personally, I haven't had any flickering problems. I run all my games in 1080p and don't have any problems. I hope this helps and wish you well on your search for a good monitor.

It's all done within Nvidia Control Panel. The only thing you got to do is create the custom resolution (that will let you set new refresh rate as well). I took my monitor to 96hz and I didn't try to go any further.

In essence, yes. You might have to tweak around with color settings until you get some good preset. Ones that come with the monitor suck arse. The monitor itself is used for datasheet viewing and I have no problems with it. It is a very good monitor and I plan on buying another one when my pocket allows it.

Make sure the refresh rate on the computer is 60Hz. If the refresh rate is different from the T.V. there will be image tearing.

Call the company from which the monitor came from. They will validate your warrenty and issue you a RMA number. Then you will be able to send the monitor back to the company. They will either repair it or replace it.

Its the refresh rate. I own this TV and the TV I used to have was 120hz. I was weary about getting the 60hz but the price was unbeatable for this one and I see absolutly no difference from 120hz

Replace the DisplayPort cable, it sucks.Buy another, much thicker one,one that's rated for 2160 x 3840 pixels, 60 Hz, IPS, DisplayPort 1.2 . Seriously.With a bad/poor cable, like the one that comeswith the $700 Dell UltraSharp UP2414Q,you might be forced into 29 Hz, low-res mode...and/or the cable will just plain break, causing garbage to appear on the screen.It's worse if you swing it portrait, and/or move it around a lot.The original cable had bent pins and the like... really bad.Why did Dell give me such a -crappy- cable ? ?Dell's cable is half the thickness of the $9 one I boughtto replace it ( same day shipping, from/to Seattle, Amazon ).

I had the first problem and called the ASUS support. They said it is not correct. Either get the monitor fixed or replaced. I didn't notice the second problem. But if it happens, I believe that press and hold the most left button on the monitor. The screen will center itself. Best Wishes. Li

I did not experience this. Did you set up the correct version for the display port driver in the monitor menu? Some computers , etc. do not support th latest versions that comes default with this monitor. Hope this helps.

Never (using this monitor since 6-13). Do you have a message on the screen when this happens - "no xx input," etc.? Check cables.

I'd also like to know what settings other people are using. I have my PS3 hooked up to this monitor and blu-rays look terrible on it. My PS3 is set to 1080p output and still the blu-rays look extremely grainy and there's streaks in dark areas. I have no clue what to do. I took back another ASUS model because of this issue. I was hoping this one would be different, but it's not. Please, someone post your settings.
