    I'm seeing lots of great chairs here, I sit too low at my desk as mine isn't adjustable, where do you all buy yours? Local? Online?

    If the orange glow is as bad as I see on the pic it's probably a manufacturing defect.

    I would recommend requesting the RMA from ASUS itself if it's on-site next day.
    You can replace it, but it won't matter. All of them have BLB and IPS glow.

    That said, it really isn't as bad as it looks when you're sitting in front of it.

    Though I do not know what BLB is I can tell you in the one I just had that any IPS glow was not noticable at all even if the screen displayed full black.
    I actually tested for this.

    The lighting was fully uniform, no patches etc. .. So I think that most of them aren't nearly as bad as people think/claim they are.

    Back light bleed.

    I've had three (sent them all back) and they all had the same issues. I've also never seen an IPS panel, without IPS glow, so you're either VERY lucky, or you just don't see it.

    Heck, just pick a random pg279q video on youtube; they all suffer from the same faults.

    Snatched one from work. They were hauling barely used 700€ office chairs to the refuse dump.

    Upgrades done. i7-6700k (w/Corsair H60). 32GB G-skill DDR4-3200. EVGA SC+ 980ti. 250GB SSD as OS/MMO drive, and 3TB Seagate 7200RPM SATA3 HDD for storage. Corsair CX-750M power supply (I've kept this same power supply for my last 3 builds). Thermaltake Chaser MK-1 case (got this case 2 builds ago and it's not going anywhere).

    My system destroys Arkham Knight on max settings now, that's quite a feat.

    Got my monitor replaced via the store I originally bought the faulty one, it's a damn nice monitor, still got some back light bleed, but less then the other one and it's not looking orange so I'll keep it, not notice it much unless there is a black background and cba to go trough the whole ordeal again, might post a pic later.

    *edit

    updated pic

    Specs much the same as always:

    Fractal Design Arc Midi
    i7 3770k at 4.5GHz
    Thermalright Silver Arrow with the original fans
    EVGA gtx 780
    Asrock z77 extreme6
    24GB of 1600MHz ram (mushkin / kingston)
    1TB Samsung 840 evo
    2TB WD Black
    Asus Xonar Essence STX

    AKG K712's
    Zowie Celeritas
    Corsair M45
    Dell U2412M

    I've actually got the same desk and legs as you! Your picture inspired me to clean up the cables on/under my desk. It's not perfect (would need some new cables to make routing more optimal), but it's a lot better.
