Is it your monitor? Cause I can't really see anything. 

Posted

So, has anybody else noticed or knows why whites seem to be tinted pink on borders of websites or other things, it seems that anything on my screen that should be a dark gray is now a pink.

 

Could it be I accidentally screwed something up in my AMD catalyst settings? I was changing stuff there a bit ago.

 

Here are some images of what I mean:

Posting screenshots won't help; it's a monitor issue.

Pro Tip: don't use flash when taking pictures of your build; use a longer exposure instead. Prop up your camera with something (preferably a tripod) if necessary.

if you use retarded/autistic/etc to mean stupid please gtfo

Or, you know, my eyes. I feel like I'm going insane, nothing stands out as pink.

Also no pink in that image, probably an issue with the display output of the graphics card. Does Catalyst have a "revert to default" feature in the settings?

I Eyedropped that picture in MS PowerPoint. The white space showed up as pure white (255,255,255)

Not the monitor. Something to do with settings.

 

This is the color of some things:

no shift to red at all. the rgb i get from that is 241 241 241. That is just a very light grey. Its definitely a monitor issue.

That looks fine to me; it's the monitor

Ok, turns out it WAS  monitor issue even though I was almost certain it was software since I recently updated drivers.

 

Had my monitor set to "movie" setting for gaming (Which is really nice) but it turns out when in regular use it does the pink think. It's weird.
