Asus gaming monitor crack or pop sounds.

Hello

I have a new ASUS gaming monitor every time I power it off and go to bed I hear cracking or popping sounds. Is this normal?

What is the monitor's model? that definitely doesn't sound normal, how loud is said crack/pop?

Hello I have a ASUS MG279Q and Samsung sync master sa450. When ever I turn of my monitors and PC at night. Some sort of cracking noises or popping noise start. I have a surge protector still plugged in and everything. I also turn off monitors with PC.

Depends if it's the power supply then I would contact Asus to see what they can do but it's possible due to thermal expansion that the plastic panels are making partial contact and causing that popping or cracking noise.

The sound is coming from the monitor I described it wrong. It makes the sound like you are trying to move the monitor "plastic bending or braking"

A brand new few weeks old ASUS MG279Q. The sound depends actually. I used my PC a lot yesterday so at night it was a lot in the morning less since I used PC less.

Al and all I preformed a test by unplugging the monitor from the wall and turning it off completely. Did not feed it any electricity what so ever. The plastic bending or cracking sound or like when you moved the monitor continued. I waited a good 15 min and then it kind off stopped.

I guess its the reason because the monitor "heats up" and the plastic expands. Once you turn off it cools down and goes back to its original form. Whats your opinion? I mean the monitor is brand new out of the box there can't be any defects really can there?

If it happens for a long time after it's unplugged my guess would be just thermal expansion, it's not uncommon for that to happen but if you find it annoying yo can try contacting Asus to see what they can do.

Mine does the same thing. I have PG348Q. Its so annoying sometimes. But i have a smaller Asus monitor and it doesn't do it. Guess it doesn't heat up as much.

I have an Acer Predator Z35 and I have exactly the same issue, everytime I go to bed I hear that cracking/popping sound which scary me and wake me up, Also at first I tought same as you (it was thermal expansion). My monitor still has warranty but I live in Dominican Republic and the warranty is not valid in DR. Is there any tips on how to fix it?
