Switched from 165Hz TN to 240Hz IPS... input lag??

Welcome to ips or fast ips panel. Did the same swap back in 2020 going from a AOC TN 144 to Asus 280hz ips vg279qm. Theres more blur and input lag since then, and this asus was one of the best at the time. Im just waiting for this to give up to upgrade for oled or zowie tn.

Mine is doing the same thing too! I think you're right. Its either a bad batch or bad model line. I have the VG279QM and it doesn't have that issue. I just made a post about it. https://www.reddit.com/r/Monitors/comments/1ri8mqp/asus_ips_display_issue_weird_film_like_effect/

I think I saw a review of one of these in Chinese where they measured something like 4% brightness modulation on the backlight. A g

Asus IPS display issue? Weird film like effect. VG279QML5A

If it’s the same as VG279Q, it’s, according to DisplaySpecifications, based on a 6-bit panel with worst color reproduction possible (64-times less colors than on 8-bit panels, pseudo-8-bit is achieved with FRC which is either flickering or dithering). VG279QM uses a true 8-bit panel.

ELMB is good but the
