Iv Just brought 2 Benqu GW2760S screens and I'v plugged them into my DVI ports on my GTX 780 classified. One of the screens is a different resolution to the other, one has a richer colour, looking more like HD then the other. This screen is plugged into the top DVI port (the one which you can also connect a VAG adapter) BUT NO MATTER WHICH PORT I use the SAME screen is aways better. The settings on the screens are the same on the monitor(the settings you can change by pressing buttons on the monitor)they are also the same on the setting on my computer.
Could one of the screens be different to the other? faulty? They both came with drivers on disk which iv yet to install but since its the screen which is different no matter what i change around I don't think the drivers will help.
I will also be getting a 3rd screen, same make and model.

AMD FX 4100 (soon to be i7 4770k)
DDR3 1333 (soon to be corsairs dominator platium 1866)
shity old gigabyte mother board (soon to be Gigabyte Z87X-UD3H)
Corsair CX750
EVAG GTX 780 Classified

There are two or three types that have a serial starting with GW2760

The suffix of S and HS are added on the end for the type of screen used in the monitor.

I suggest you check on the back of the monitor to see if both are indeed a both S.

If one says HS and the other just S then it`s why the screen image looks better on one.

To be honest I cannot see any difference,
But if I was sat close to them I could.

Anyway. As you know each monitor has an angle of, viewing degrees.
Because the screens are polarized.
so looking at one at a slight pitch to the left or right to your eyes.
Will produce a slight color, and white light projection.

Look at them straight on with no angle to them.

If the result is the same.
Then I suggest that you check what refresh rate both monitors are indeed running at in windows.

Pay attention to the Hz range of each monitor.
One set at a slightly lower Hz range for the set resolution will result in some cases as a less sharper image.

Right click on your desktop.

Click on screen resolution.
Then right click on each monitor and properties.
Click on the list all modes tab of each display and see if the resolution and refresh rates match.

After that I would test to see if it is not down to the cable used between each of the monitors, for a faulty one or one of a less quality causing a poor signal.
