ASUS FIX THIS! GL Series: ALL display panels affected by inverse ghosting

[hexaae]

Inverse ghosting reported by many users with display panel AUO B173HAN03.2 [AUO329D] (GL703GS). Also with G-Sync OFF and in fullscreen or window. Look at the borders of the distant objects and you'll see an ugly dark ghost trail while moving mouse.

Asus! Почему вы так спокойно игнорируете то, что мы вам пишем? Это в порядке вещей? Дайте уже наконец официальный ответ по этому поводу!!!

Asus! Why do you so calmly ignore what we write to you? Is it in the order of things? Give finally the official answer about this !!!

[hexaae]

zero support, the asus way

As you can see also GL504GM Hero II https://www.notebookcheck.net/Asus-ROG-Strix-GL504GM-Hero-II-i7-8750H-GTX-1060-FHD-Laptop-Review.326... has Panel Overdrive option, totally missing for GL703xx users!
This is a shame ASUS!

This is shame ASUS!

Do you think that it is possible to add this Overdrive option for our laptops ? Maybe GL703GS panels doesn't have this option ?

I tried latest version from MS Store but Panel Overdrive switch won't appear on GL703GS.
Shame on ASUS who totally abandoned 703/503 users, since they implemented workaround for inverse ghosting for 704/504 only.

Lenovo Legion Y740-17ICH has the same panel AUO B173HAN03.2

Asus UK actually told me to RMA my GL702VI. They changed the mobo. Fixed nothing and I got an overheating CPU for the trouble when I got it back. Poor, shoddy work.

Ridiculous: it's not a HW issue with faulty components, but a bad panel overdrive settings. The problem is ASUS doesn't want to admit the problem, nor propose a software workaround like they did with Panel Overdrive option in new GL704! That's very unfair
