Hello everyone,

 

so i recently built a new pc with a 3070 and 3700x. i needed to buy new monitors to actually use theses graphics and ended on the VG27AQ a beautiful monitor. i bought two and my issue is one is slightly darker than the other. white isnt as white on one screen its an off white/grey color. identical settings. 

 

the troubleshooting i have done.

changed cables

change display ports

REPLACED THE MONITOR WITH A NEW ONE(so i can decide to have two off white monitors but onces ive seen what it can be i dont want anything less)

i have contacted ASUS support and they were worthless. 

 

so after replacing the monitor(current have 3 of them) i hope that this is some setting issue. 

 

please help

 

 

here are the monitors.

Have you checked the color temperature setting?

If two match, keep those two and adjust them to how you like them.

I doubt you will ever notice it again.

 

Otherwise, do you have two identical cables from the GPU to the monitors?
