Bad displays, horizontal lines issue

I bought a G750J last night, went through the motions of setting up and doing all the installs. And when all was done, on all black, grey, and all the shades in between and even some of the darker colors, There are very noticeable horizontal lines. I took it back this morning exchanged it out for another one, and it has the same issue. Very noticeable horizontal lines, I am about to go back again and do another exchange, so I will be on number 3 in less than 24 hours of purchase. Not a good sign, makes me wonder if they all are like this. Even with the nvidia drivers updated, it is still there even more noticeable actually. So, lets see what this next exchange will bring, I wager it will have the same problem.

Did you file a detailed Technical Inquiry with Asus? They aren't playing these games all day, well most aren't, and need feedback when problems come up like this. Venting into the forum likely does nothing except get suggestions of solutions that have worked from others.

If you want Asus to fix it, or better yet, Nvidia, then file bugs with photos, recreate-able examples, etc.

I am not just speaking to you Cello, it is everyone that comes across an annoying visual anomaly on the laptop that they only see on the built-in screen, on an external screen, but not on another computer with an Nvidia card.

Did you do a clean install of the latest Nvidia driver from Nvidia directly? There have been fixes for rendering in dark/grey areas. I don't have the problem, but for those that do they say it makes it better.

Which model do you have? JW, JX, JH, and which screen? Chi Mei, AUO, or Samsung?

The latest Nvidia don't fix it, but use a "trick" : no more lines indeed, but a "grid" instead.

KoolASUS, so is it "better" with the new pattern?

well, it's different : instead of seeing sometimes in specific (dark) areas the lines, you see always and everywhere this dithering effect (like the old 256 color GIF images , or playing 3D games in 16bit depth - remember the old 3Dfx cards : the alpha-blending - I think that's how it is called - was like this)

so, for me, it's worse. I'm still on 311.83

veracocha, it has been on none of the G750JW/JX/JH's that I have owned, or seen. I haven't seen this on any G750 screens, Chi Mei or AUO. It appears to be an anomaly in the vision of the people that see it, or from their point of view, an anomaly in the vision of the rest of us that don't see it 🙂

If you stick your eyes close to any screen, the image will break down into individual elements and patterns, like you see in clouds in the sky, and some people see a regular pattern, vertical or horizontal that attracts their attention away from the whole - fixation onto the pattern instead of the image.

If you haven't had this problem before, you probably won't have it with the G750 screen.

You can always return the G750 in the return period, and most people don't notice anything, so give it shot, and let us know how it works out for you.

Hi;
My dissapointement with the rog750JW is reading on asus website : Its screen is NVIDIA® 3D Vision™ compatible and supports active shutter and NVIDIA® 3D LightBoost™ technologies. Which in the case of the machine i did buy complete lie !!!!
