Can someone who owns this monitor say how the backlight bleeding is. In a dark scene in a dark room, i.e. gaming, what is the light bleeding like plea

I bought this monitor from Best Buy and there is absolutely no problems with bleeding since the contrast is so finely tuned. The back lit technology is great if you play in a dark room. There's controls to fine tune how bright the back lit LEDs are.

I'm not a gamer so maybe you should look for a review from someone who may be more particular, but this monitor seems crisp and clear in a dark room or full light. I like it a lot.

I don't notice any effect from the backlight bleeding, in the daytime or night. I'm very pleased with all aspects of this monitor.

I think the monitor is awesome. The colors are great and I have no major issues with the display. My minor complaint is that the display is exceptionally bright. I have my brightness setting set to zero and it was still a little too bright. I got used to it after a few days though.

I have two of these and do have a slight light bleed on the left hand side and bottom left corner. I used a screen saver with a black background and white letters, but this is not noticeable during normal use. Overall not bad, but I don't expect perfect. James

I have more of a backlight issue when viewed from off angle. There is a white fuzzy band of excess brightness on the right 1/8 of screen, that washes out the color. is this similar to your set?

It's much clearer during the day than at night. The nighttime picture is B&W; a as opposed to color. I've never seen a monitor with crystal clear images at night.

In my opinion the colors are very good out of the box, it does need some tweaking if you're looking for 100% color accuracy but it is more than capable. Personally when I got mine it was close enough that I haven't touched it since I'm not doing anything requiring perfect colors. I will say that I did a bunch of research on this monitor before I bought it and some people have said that their backlight can be somewhat uneven which can impact the colors. I don't seem to have that problem but be warned that some units may have the issue.

Its a lottery from ASUS...so like screen bleed intensity ( because almost all asus screen come with different bleed screen degree)

No back light bleeding problem and no high pitched high pitched noise with my two monitors. Normally I am susceptible to hearing the high pitched whine of electronic components and these monitors have yet to show this type of behavior. YMMV.

I played bf3 and bf4 on it and I did not notice any ghosting or slow response time. Colors were great. However it broke after 18 months. Warranty is only 1 year. I strongly recommend this monitor instead.

if your screen does not show anything at all, then that is not a problem with your backlight. It may be an issue with your motherboard. Water damage does not usually affect the screen.

As an admitted quality snob, I would be lying if I said that the monitor has no ghosting because it most certainly does. However, it is no where near dramatic enough to be called an "issue." The ghosting effect can ONLY be seen when a dark object moves across a white, or nearly white background. For example, you will be able to see a very small amount of ghosting on the edge of icons inside an explorer window if you quickly drag said window from one side of the screen to the other. Other than that it's unlikely that you will ever notice it. I have watched many movies and played many FPS game sessions without being able to detect any ghosting. Bottom line, this monitor will NOT disappoint.

Pretty much any IPS monitor is likely going to have something like that. But you know, I haven't noticed much of it. I guess it depends on how picky you are. I'm a PC gamer, and while I can't say there is absolutely no ghosting, I've not noticed any that's bothered me while I've played games. I'm pretty picky about my displays so if it were an issue I would notice it. Now, if you're looking at doing high end FPS competition you might want to look elsewhere, same would be true about strong video editing. Outside of that, I don't think it will be a problem.

I love it for gaming. The refresh rate might be too much for really fast games, but I have no problems with CS:GO. All my games look amazing with very lush colors and good range when it comes to blacks and whites. It's perfect if you plan for multi-monitor situations like eyefinity too.

What Mike said. They're all LCDs with LED backlighting. Some better than others. This one's a great monitor though, especially for the price! Only advice I have is if purchasing more than one for a multi-monitor set up you will 100% need some calibration software. I bought two and they are completely different temps. Not even close (this is standard with monitors within the industry). Calibration is a must...but well worth it for product at this price point.

I am inclined to think something is wrong. Mine has a nice picture. I did no adjustments on my monitor. I kept the factory setting because the picture was great.
