Been using my PG348Q for a few days, and one day I was playing Overwatch... and it looked like a big burn mark in the middle of the screen. I turned off the screen, and back on and it was gone. Now, I was just browsing the internet, and the same thing happened but on the left of the screen.

What's the matter with it...

Swap it out. I had to return my first one with dead pixels. Supposedly there are quality control issues.

RMA it. These monitors have quality control issues and you were unlucky as it seems.

I've already sent one in twice... this is technically my third monitor... It's like, not even worth it anymore... heh

It is really a huge lottery. I believe that my AOC uses the same panel. I have it for almost 2 months now but so far I had no issues....hopefully it will stay like that.

I luckily bought it at best buy so I just kept going back until there was one that wasn't crap. I would have caved and got an Acer if they had one
