I'll bet my gaming mouse that dithering has something to do with it. When I play around with the sliders, in settings *just* before lines disappear in a certain level of grey/color gradient, said gradient will dither like whoa. It's less noticeable in average use than the lines, though. Also, on pink-to-white gradients, I'll get ugly splotches of blue, like there's something wrong in how the panel/card interprets blue-red-purple combinations. (I get the lines in colors too, btw. At default settings it appears in beige, but I use beige a lot so now I shifted it away to fluorescent green. They won't appear in red even if I try, but you see it around in the blue spectrum and related colors.)
At any rate, I use the same panel as the Asus N50 series, which is reported to have fantastic screens. (And it really is fantastic, lines aside. I've almost never seen colors this gorgeous on a laptop before.) So.....it's not the panel sucking by itself. It's something acting in conjunction with it. Maybe it's just *THIS* particular panel just like my faulty keyboard is just *THIS* particular keyboard, but since it's endemic to the G series I'd assume guilty until proven innocent.
It's such a shame, though. It really is a beautiful panel, and it makes me sad that I had to lower color detail, if only a little bit.

Here's a great little app for testing you panel>>> Dead Pixel Locator
Also helps when looking for lines too!
PS: BTW I don't have that problem!!!
I always use calibration tools like "DVE-HD Basics" Blu-Ray disc to calibrate my panels.
I run the disc first thing with new systems!

It's not dead pixels, it's some horizontal lines in black colors.
