Is this a dead pixel?

[Guest]

I don't know if this pixel is stuck, or dead. It just started like this earlier today. I'm using a Odyssey G7 if that matters.

 

If you figure, I'm quite desperate to get it gone-

well if it doesnt do anything then yeah its stuck/dead

If there's no color being output from the pixel, yes it's a dead pixel.

[Guest]

He's dead Jim. If you just got the monitor, I would look up the dead pixel policy for that retailer to see if it is eligible for a replacement. Because dead and stuck pixels are considered normal for a LCD panel's lifespan, it's usually not considered a defect unless you have multiple ones and if they're clustered together or in the middle of the display.

If i go into games, it works for around 10 seconds and goes black again

Apparently not? @BlueChinchillaEatingDoritocuz when I turned off VRR/Adaptive sync it dissapeared?

If the monitor is within the return period, just return it and order a new one.

See local/regional laws and store policy of course.

Yeah, that's the point warranty ran out

It's somehow gone by DDUing and just disabling and enabling G-Sync like 10 times
