I recently bought a monitor because I didnt want ghosting. I previously had a 5ms IPS panel and they equally ghost. What could be the problem? This monitor claims it is for "Console gaming" Could that be the problem?

Ghosting on this??? It's specially built to not have ghosting and it's for both consoles and PC.

What cable are you using, if HDMI then might want to try with DVI-D.

I am using DVI-D. Im pretty disappointed because I expected no ghosting :(

Updated all drivers too

Might be the default settings.

Try those settings:
- display mode: full
- picture mode: Eco
- sharpness: 1
- color temp: R 95 G 93 B 97
- AMA: premium
- instant mode: on
- overscan: off

Or:
Picture mode: RTS 1
Brightness - 100
Contrast - 50
Sharpness - 1
Black equal - 0
Color Temp - Red- 93. Green-89. Blue-97

AMA - High
Instant mode- on

In most reviews people are happy with this monitor exactly because it wont ghost.
Guess if you have HDMI cable around in the house you could try with this too just in case and try those settings:
display mode: full
- picture mode: Eco
- sharpness: 1
- color temp: R 95 G 93 B 97
- AMA: premium
- instant mode: on
- overscan: off
- HDMI RGB PC range: 0-255


Other then that dont know what else to do besides sending it back and getting true 144 Hz monitor and not cheap AOC but this:

on a 60hz monitor 6ms and lower is fine
with a 120-140hz monitor you need 1-2ms

I think I have a similar problem with my Monitor- Asus Ve247h its a 2ms responce time and I get a crap-load of ghosting in almost all games! I use a dual-link Dvi cable on my set-up. What is V-sync for screen tearing right?

vsync prevents screen tearing
each frame displayed is a complete frame

[RichCaTs]

vsync caps your frames per second according to the monitors refresh rate.

Yes but it is not a "CAP" like when u set a "Max FPS" with other apps, like EVGA Precision for example. V-Sync is syncing those frames to match the refresh rate, completely different.

But in order for V-Sync to work correctly, the system needs to be able to have a decent average FPS in order to pull off V-Sync well. For example if a game is often giving u random dips well below 60 FPS (and you're on a 60Hz screen) then V-Sync isn't going to help much because it won't be syncing when/if your FPS drops.

Most games don't do a good job of handling V-Sync via its in-game option. Best bet is to disable V-Sync within the game, then force V-Sync in other ways, like through NVIDIA CP or AMD Catalyst. D3D-Overrider is a good app for this. Or using Adaptive V-Sync in NVIDIA CP.

I would try a different cable...maybe something like nvidia insoector to sort of force lock you frame rate...I dont know....something. I have two of these and I have loved the hell out of them since day one.

i had this same problem, i called tech support and they fixed it for me. if you still have the monitor go to menu>picture>AMA>OFF(changing it to premium only makes it worse) it will fix it instantly.

I confirm : AMA off fixes the issue. I bought the monitor yesterday, and that was annoying but since I fixed it it's perfet.

Thank you! I use purple borders on my windows, every time I moved a window, it would streak blue all over.
Menu > Picture > AMA: Off
Fixed <3
