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.

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 !!!!


You didn't buy what you thought you bought, so return it, and find what you want, and buy that 🙂

So I am the new owner of a G750JS (GTX 870M variant). Before that I owned a G73SW for almost four years and loved it - zero complaints. I like the G750 however, as many are noting here - the matte screen is total crap. I don't have any of the vertical or horizontal lines that others seem to be contending with. What I do have is incredibly ****ty vertical viewing angles. I have to play games with the screen tilted towards me in order to see any dark spots correctly in the game. Otherwise, they simply become washed out pitch black.

This is seriously irritating. I am perfectly willing to upgrade to a glossy LCD, but it seems that the B173HW01 V.4 model is out of stock everywhere. Is it ok to use the V.5 model? There is a glossy version listed here:

Any help or input would be much appreciated!

Thanks
