Hardware test fails on PG278Q (ROG Swift)

Mine will be going back to Asus once tested by my supplier and then I'm going to ask them to retest it before it is sent back to myself, so hopefully they are able to sort the problem out. I'll let you know how it went, maybe this is the best way to ensure that the monitor you get is issue free. I pref to go through suppliers and not direct because I once had a nightmare dealing with Acer. Sent the monitor off because of a fault and it came back with broken casing and a normal DVI cable instead of of a dual and had the exact same problem I sent it off with. -.- I've had to send so many things back recently I'm becoming a pro at it.

Hello All, I'm wondering if any you that have a Gtx 690 with the fan issue not spinning faster than 1020RPM? The temp I get when I'm playing games reaches 100+ C and it shuts off. I then need to reboot my system. I downloaded MSI and when I try to increase fan speed to 95% it still shows 1020 RPM. I'm not overclocking any components. Please help!!! thanks

Hi, you would probably be best off creating a new thread of your own in the geforce -700-600-series area. I have never encountered this issue but If I did I would try the following: In order: 1. Freshly reinstall WHQL Nvidia drivers. 2. Try another version of afterburner to rule that out. 3. Run a 3d benchmarking system with it set to custom settings (instead of running a game) so that it never gets over 90c, as you don't want your gpu overheating... 4. Check the gpu fan for any obstructions. 5. Try making sure that the card is not loose and all the way into the socket,(I'd probably just reinstall it) 6. Use different PCI-E power connectors (not sure if you can do this) 7. Try it out in another pc to see if it does the same. 8. Try another card to see if that is doing the same. 9. If I couldn't get it working after all of this I'd RMA it asap. You do not want to make the card go over 100 c's and crash out your system. Out of warranty period I'd probably: A. See if I could suss out how to install a new cooler onto the card B. Ebay it titled faulty and describe it for someone else to deal with and get a new card with the money. I'm sure there may be other things that others might add, but there's a few ideas. Hope this helps, and Good luck.

I do not even use 3D mode, but I have the same pattern appearing inside of bright objects if I move the camera too quickly. It does this regardless of the refresh rate, G-Sync, or ULMB. It lasts only for an instant, before the pixels correct themselves, but it happens very frequently and is far beyond what I consider acceptable for a $800 TN panel. Insult to injury, I have a huge white cloudy area towards the middle of the screen that is still noticeable (although less so) on dark areas even with the monitor's bright lowered from the default 80% all the way to 20%

Minus the clouding, that pretty much sounds like the issue I was having. It was less noticeable when I put contrast to 0 and brightness all the way down, the image did look a lot less broken up but couldn't see a thing because the monitor was so dark. :/ Mines on its way back now to be tested and I should have it back within 25 days so I guess I'll find out then if it's been a pointless activity or not. If you get new one please could you let me know if it has the problems or not? I'm back to my old GD245HQ Acer monitor; the screen tearing now is awfully evident but no pixel breakup to be found.

I also have the ROG Swift and Have had ghosting problems. I sent one back to Asus and got another. I have been good with 3d vision for a few months and just a few days ago, the ghosting returned. It is really bad now. I will try to do the unplug thing and see if that helps. EVGA X99 Classified - Intel I7 5960X - Geforce TITAN X Hyrdocopper

Could You take a picture with your camera through your glasses? So we could see your problem. With all these problems with the rog swift, we are not about to see another needs screen with 3d vision...

I'm not entirely familiar with TFT-LCD panel electronics, but I think the pixel inversion issue we see with the Swift has to do with the limited overdrive capabilities/tuning of the original G-Sync module. The same issue (from what I can see) is observed with improperly designed Freesync solutions. Nvidia was able to tune the G-Sync module properly for 144 hz variable refresh rate functioning, but was unable to solve the problem at 30 hz (where the pixel inversion is visible as a brightness fluctuation e.g. flashing) or, in the case of Lightboost, within the strobing window. The problem is exacerbated by the Swift's TN overshoot, and the result is the very visible line inversion we see with the Swift in 3D. Unfortunately, no one else has used the the same high-color TN panel as in the Swift, so we will likely never see a proper 3D implementation at 1440p.
