U2518D, screen tearing, PS4
Hello,
I bought two of the U2518D's. Both have the same issue. When I plug my PS4 in via HDMI, and I run the resolution at 1080p, I get screen tears across the screen (horizontally) that move vertically from about halfway up the screen to the top. Exactly the same issue that other user's are reporting are happening to me as well. It makes gaming very annoying, it happens in 30 second intervals. So gaming, which is what I plan to do with this monitor half the time, will be very cumbersome. Please see video here.
This issue can be resolved by switching the output of the PS4 to 720p, which is 50% of 1440p. Then there is no screen tears. However, the quality is much lower, so I would like to go back to 1080p again. This fixes issues on both monitors.
I do not have a gaming PC (yet) powerful enough to run 1440p at 60FPS to match the resolution and refresh rate of this monitor. I will be building a PC soon, and I need some good monitors, however, I plan to return both of these monitors if I cannot get this resolved, because I really need these monitors to be solid at 1440p, 60FPS and at 1080p resolutions.
