TL;DR: Purple tint show randomly on one of my screen after the display have been turned off automatically for a few hours. When the purple tint appear, I can fix it right away by manually turning off the screen, and turning it back on again. I can also fix it by removing DVI cable and connecting it back. The problem keep happening randomly, read the rest for more info.
------------------
I decided to buy that screen because it was recommended on MMO champ in the build of the month. Been 20 days since the purchase. I ordered two screen (I use dual monitors), since then I returned one and got a replacement
The problem happens randomly, I always let my computer running so the screen turn off automaticly after 15 minutes (Alienware Fusion setting). When I come back I wiggle the mouse, both screen open, sometimes one of the screen have a purple tint, like if I manually turn the GREEN all the way down. But it doesn't happens all the time.
Problem is I did not touch any setting, the purple tint appear randomly. Only way to fix it is to turned off the screen and turn it back on, it fixes automatically the problem (disconnecting the DVI and reconnecting the DVI also fixes the problem.
I want to point out I also have a third screen (TV screen) connected to my PC with HDMI, but it is not used in the display I used, it is grayed out in the display setting.
I bought two screen at the same time, the left one (primary) it happened 3 times before I returned it, it started to happens 10 days after purchase, and happened again 2 days after, then 1 day after.
The secondary screen it happened only 20 days after the purchase, and the next day after it happened again.
The primary screen was ship back and they sent me a replacement I installed a few days ago, and the secondary screen started to do that only after I had replaced the primary screen.
To help you read the rest, here is a summary of the term I use:
-Primary monitor: on the left
-Secondary monitor: on the right
-Display screen 1: the screen named "1" in the display setting
-Display screen 2: the screen named "2" in the display setting
Bascially, when I removed the primary screen (also the display screen 1), the secondary screen was the only one connected to the PC (the secondary screen is now the one experiencing the problem), is it possible the secondary screen became the new "display screen 1", and when I plugged back in the replacement screen, the replacement took the place of the "display screen 2", so that's why the secondary screen (now display screen 1) is the one experimenting the purple tint problem even tho it never had problem in the last 20 days?
The DVI cable I use are 5 month old, they worked perfecly on my 5 years old Samsung LCD.
Both ends of the DVI cable are well connected, they are not loose.
I did a full reset of both screen yesterday, purple tint still came back on the secondary screen this morning i got to my computer and wiggle the mouse to turn on the screens.
Anyone have an idea how to fix the problem for good?
