I have two Asus MX27AQ monitor and had to disassemble one to remove its stand (the screws were behind the back). Today I look at my monitor and can see few dead pixels that I did not saw yesterday. There are 3 together in the middle side by side, and two more on the sides. I am not sure if I want to mod my second monitor if this is my fault :/

Did you screw the screws too tight?

You might be applying pressure onto the display. Relax the screws and hopefully you haven't caused permanent damage.

It's not a race to the bottom.
