Hello!

When I play HD video and games, there seems to be a near-transparent grid made up of 16x16 squares that happens, and is sometimes very noticeable this image will show you what I mean:

It started off only when I played a video 720p or higher, then progressing to games like Just Cause 2 (only one I've noticed it with so far). Images don't seem to be affected.

Is there any way to fix, or is it RMA time?

Thanks!
Henry

so is this like an overlayed grid or just groupes of pixels 16x16 acting as one pixel? its hard to tell in the picture
if its the second see if your output settings are set to the resolution of the monitor

It seems to be an overlayed grid. Only on HD, though, which is strange. It's a lot less noticeable when not in full screen, but looks really low-res.

They're 2 AOC 19.5 inch 1366 x 768 VGA monitors using an R7 260X (originally a 250 which didn't have this problem), connected by DVI and HDMI (via a converter).

The 260x isn't a recent upgrade per se. I'd say its about 3, 4 months old?

ok so I´m not familiar with those monitors but since they´re AOC my best guess is that its a tool to help artists and profesionals since AOC makes profesional monitors. try playing with the menu on the monitor see if there´s a setting for "grid" or "grid overlay"

I've tried opening my AOC driver called i-Menu, but it closes after initialising. I've reinstalled drivers several times, even going into the beta. I'll see if my old GPU has the same problem (after I get the dust out of it).

It doesn't have an onboard menu, only press for auto and hold to turn off. Kinda bad, I know. I can only manipulate it with i-Menu, but I can't because its acting weird.

I think i've found the problem - the video codecs for chrome and IE seem to be causing the problem, Firefox and HD vids work fine. I also forgot that IE HD video caused me 0x000000 crashes, so I don't really know how to fix the codecs.
