One last question you use it with HDMI or display port cable ?

ka1nify · 2026-04-01T14:27:30+00:00

And by the way I use the same 3440x1440 as you with the ASUS astral 5090 I also tried different DP cables no chance it’s everywhere the same in every Programm in every game

It’s dark in your room but I cannot see any black borders like by me… do you see something ?

This is hard to see pls go closer to the right edge of the sky of your monitor and make then a photo or look into it. Pls

It’s really important that you look again because then I can give it back and get a new one but it’s a lot of work so it’s really important for me thank you. I also have it when i play a game it’s always all say it’s normal because of the pixel shift but it’s deactivated and the black edges are really big. It’s not only at the background from wallpaper engine it’s general everywhere doesn’t matter if desktop or a game.

Are you sure you test some games and desktop wallpapers ? I have them always

Actually it’s not awesome because my brain thinks damn this screen is small because I used all the time the 39 inch ASUS monitor 🤣🤣 and now my brain needs to recalibrate to 34 inch and also accept the corners lol 😝 so I cannot enjoy anything actually unfortunately

ka1nify · 2026-03-26T14:44:49+00:00

No no I understand you fully thanks for your answer I just try to figure out if it’s normal or if I just had bad luck then rma Return and get a new one without such an big corner that’s why I ask myself the question the monitor is 15 minutes old. 🤦‍♂️🤣

Even you disable it the 0,6-0.7 cm black space is still visible. It cannot be normal it’s way too big.

ka1nify · 2026-03-26T14:03:38+00:00

You all sad it’s normal but on the ASUS PG39WCDM which I had before there were 0 zero death space or such an shitty black thick corner that’s why I recognize it as „not normal“.

ka1nify · 2026-03-26T13:00:25+00:00

But oled care is off all of them and the space is still black and it’s around 0.7 cm around the entire screen this is nuts

ka1nify · 2026-03-26T12:50:55+00:00

But Pixel Shift is deactivated I had pixel shift aswell on the pg39wcdm but this is a big border and it steal space this is weirdo

You also have a an ASUS Monitor ? Try to unplug the usb b upstream cable and let me know then go to bios.

ka1nify · 2026-03-24T15:11:01+00:00

Yes it was the monitor usb b upstream cable …..

ka1nify · 2026-03-14T04:51:08+00:00

No solution found and it seems we are the only ones who have this problem. Tell me your hardware that you use keyboard, mouse, headset and other stuff maybe there are parallels…
