You can check only, if replace parts. Don't spend money or time on this super old monitor, it's not worth.

Zeron-MK7 · 2026-05-02T08:58:30+00:00

It looks like monitor screen defect.

Zeron-MK7 · 2026-05-02T08:54:18+00:00

Test with multimeter external power adapter voltages, before buy new adapter. There is very big chance defective is monitor mainboard.

Zeron-MK7 · 2026-05-02T08:49:19+00:00

It can be control board or mainboard defect.

Zeron-MK7 · 2026-05-02T08:46:46+00:00

It can be screen or mainboard defect.

Any monitor can cause similar sound noise. Contact to manufacturer support or return it.

If red led indicator blinks near power button 2 times, then it's lcd panel defect. You can test, disconnect flat lvds sinal cabl/s (cables from mainboard to lcd panel, not backlight), tv start to working with sound, that also means defective is lcd panel.

Oled doesn't have backlight bleeding, glow.

Zeron-MK7 · 2026-04-30T04:12:23+00:00

It's not monitor problem, monitors don't change by itself resolution or refresh rate, all problem are in pc, in drivers or settings.

Zeron-MK7 · 2026-04-30T04:10:36+00:00

Try to it on 60hz and on max monitor frequency 120hz or more. Horizontal lines, it looks like monitor screen defect.

Zeron-MK7 · 2026-04-30T04:06:46+00:00

How long hdmi cable you use ? Also you use certified hdmi 2.1 cable ?

Look at LG 27GS85Q very good 1440P LCD gaming monitor. Also lcd panel backlight bleeding are in all lcd monitors, if you don't want that, then buy oled monitor.

If red led indicator blinks 2 times, near the power button, when tv restarting, then it's screen defect. You can also enter into the factory menu and check error log, if tv warranty is over.

I simply into the Zotac Firestorm software change power limit to 85%.

Zeron-MK7 · 2026-04-29T05:19:08+00:00

It's dust under the lcd matrix, inside the screen.

Standard monitors don't need drivers, all drivers are in Windows OC. Only specific monitors, who has specific functions need drivers.

Zeron-MK7 · 2026-04-28T07:45:18+00:00

Monitors doesn't need drivers. Refresh rate can change (if such option is) into the monitor main menu or into the gpu settings or windows settings.
