I am going to go straight to the point.
I found this monitor (and a few others almost identical in obvious specs)
http://www.pcgarage.ro/monitoare-led/lg/23ea63v-p-23-inch-5ms-black/
I wanted it for a triple gaming display (eyefinity) since the bezel is among the smallest i have ever seen. After looking at some videos i found that yes the bezel really is thin BUT the image does not go all the way to the side and top edges (a few mm of black screen).
I figured it was false advertising (not the first time ive seen this) but by pure accident i read one comment for a little unboxing video that said said something about overscan fixing the black borders (never until now have i even heard of this). I then looked up some reviews for the above monitor on newegg and found a comment that well enough said that setting the overscan option to 0 from the nvidia/amd driver panel fixes this issue. Having little knowledge of what this overscan does in detail (i got the gist of it but that's it) i tried too find some videos to see this in action but have been unable to find ANY video to show this in action. I have found several comments on various forums atesting to this ability to various extents but no real proof.
So i come here hoping someone might be able to help clarify this preferably with video proof if someone happens to own this monitor or a similar one.
On a last note does anyone know of a 1080p or above monitor with actual really thin bezels THAT HASN'T BEEN DISCONTINUED for multimonitor setups?
