Dealing with glossy monitors

How bright are your lights - been using TN, IPS with Anti-glare and Glossy monitors for awhile. The reflections don't bother me because I'm usually focused on the task or work like typing this comment. There are some glossy panels that use plasma to reduce glare by up to 70%. Its kind of a...

New Monitor, visual artifacts

Go into the monitor OSD menu and go to the "reset" option and reset your monitor settings to see if it goes away. Sometime having Low Blue Light option turned ON (highest setting) along with DCR may cause it.

Sudden Triple Monitor Issue

Did you recently updated to Windows 10? The Display manager for Windows 10 OS does not play nice. Same thing happened when I updated to Windows 10. To fix flashes you have to try to set it to extend for each monitor profile individually while its flashing to fix it. But now, when you want to...

AMD issue / Flickering using multi 1440p monitors and drivers 15.7 and up

Hi 96Firebird and Spanners, Thank-you for the feedback! That is some really good insight. From the looks of this thread, it does look like it is happening mostly to end users running R9 290 and R9 290x since I was not able to replicate the issue with R9 285 cards and R7 260x cards. I'm going...

AMD issue / Flickering using multi 1440p monitors and drivers 15.7 and up

Hmmm... this is odd... I am running R9 285 Radeon Cards and R7 260x Radeon Cards with either 2 or more monitor setups of various resolutions from 2560x1440, 2560x1600 and 1920x1080. During Project FreeSync development, one of things I have to do is to test all AMD Drivers that come through, I...

AMD issue / Flickering using multi 1440p monitors and drivers 15.7 and up

From my research (I could be wrong) - some of those monitors don't have a scalar ability to properly display videos or images from some source GPUs because they are only pass through scalars. It may cause communication problems from the monitors' board to the GPU's video outputs. It may be one...

AMD issue / Flickering using multi 1440p monitors and drivers 15.7 and up

I ran 3 x 2560x1440 on Radeon Cads of R7 260x to R9 285. I even swapped out one of the 2560x1440 for a 2560x1600 monitor - So far I have not ran into the issue that OP is stating. Will run more tests and report back.

AMD issue / Flickering using multi 1440p monitors and drivers 15.7 and up

I'm going to try to replicate your set up with 3 x 2560x1440 monitors. Does it matter how it is connected to get those flickering on idle? Because I see you are using 3 adapters (Bizlink and Accell are the same company btw). Please give me some time to do this. what is the exact model...

AMD issue / Flickering using multi 1440p monitors and drivers 15.7 and up

The flickering issue may be due to your monitors - they may not be VESA compliant. Normally they are caused by non-compliant cables. But if you have compliant cables, then the monitor is not using VESA compliant EDID settings. AMD had fixed a big brand monitor that had non-VESA compliant input...

Does anyone still get the AMD 7xxx bug where your monitor doesn't wake up from sleep?

If I may contribute my experience to this thread - maybe I can provide some light as why people are experiencing this. For all video cables, inputs, and outputs they are all governed and implemented by VESA. For example, Computer Displays and Graphics Cards have a set VESA standard for...

MST Question

For the same cost I suggest getting the ones made from Accell Cables - they are the OEM/ODM for many DisplayPort cables and MST. http://www.accellcables.com/products/ultraav-mini-displayport-1-2-mst-multi-display-hub?variant=729676045 Accell's MST can support up to two 2560x1600 @ 60Hz or...

AMD Freesync Monitors & Reviews Thread

Each panel type requires a different scalar to support it - our NX-VUE24 from what I know is using a different scalar than everyone else. At this time we are one of the few that is producing a 1920x1080 Freesync monitor.
