Haha, love your sarcasm man, but am sorry to hear yet another story about this god awful monitor.
Don't even bother exchanging it, your chances are better at winning the lottery than getting a decent panel on this thing.
A piece of friendly advice... get your money back and buy another monitor. Or if you absolutely myst have a IPS panel with G-Sync, wait for something decent to come out.
Personally I went the TN panel route, and have not regretted it.

Can't deal with TN since I do a lot of design work on screen. But otherwise it's probably a great option
Gonna switch to Acer and try the Predator X34 after I've sent it back. Heard it has problems too, but I
see a lot less reports about it so hopefully I'm not getting crap this time.
cheers!

I have no idea what you guys are talking about! This is the best monitor I have ever owned. I have no black light bleed and very little IPS glow. The 165 Hz refresh rate is super fast and for gaming is definitely the best monitor available. I bought a open box monitor on Newegg and got a screaming deal. I think to many people don't know the difference between back light bleed and IPS glow. Well anyway I love my Rog Swift PG279Q IPS panel.:rolleyes:

Dude, just read all the posts in here! Even Asus have officially admitted that they have quality issues with these panels.
You probably got lucky with yours, so good for you. Most other people buying these monitors aren't as lucky...

I'm happy for you that you got a good one, that doesn't mean that everybody else is lying though. It seems that the likelyhood of getting
a good one is less than getting a bad one. Just check any forum, and you'll find hundreds of these posts.
Manufacture month has nothing to do with it, reports have been coming in since the start and my screen was from January and was just as bad.
In theory this screen is great, too bad they messed so many other things up tho. Can't say I'm sad about owning the Predator X34 now instead of this.
