Your blue monitor still looks blue maybe 7500K-8500K on my calibrated monitor and the benq has a minimal almost not noticeable yellow tone.
It takes around 5 minutes for your eyes/brain to adjust to a new monitor setting so have you tried to:
- Turn your blue monitor off
- Take a 5 minute walk...
I can also recommend the BenQ BL2411PT. It's cheaper than the Eizo and seems to be of very high quality displaywise, personally i think it's even better than the Eizo but thats my own opinion. The stand however feels a bit clunky and is not quite up to Eizo's standard. Checkout the BenQ BL2411PT...
I got a EV2436W (says EV2436W on the label) at work a week ago that was manufactured 7 oct 2013 and it is really good. No blb or other defects. The ag coating is grainier than my BenQ BL2411PT but i would not say it's heavy so no sparklies. I am very pleased with it.
I got a Eizo EV2436W at work yesterday and and i must say i was deeply worried when i read this thread but after using it for 2 days i seem to have got a really good one.
There's no noticeable blb, no pixel defects or smudges. The AG coating is clearly grainier than the BenQ BL2411PT i got at...
Nope it did not work.
At least i can run 720p from 48Hz up to 86Hz. Neither the horizontal sweep frequency or pixel clock were that high so i think it's a limitation in BenQ's displaychip, maybe a firmware update could unlock higher frequencys at higher resolutions.
Leaving it on automatic i can go to 61Hz.
As for making my own resolutions adapted for movies, this is what i got working so far:
1440x900 48Hz, 72Hz
1366x768 48Hz, 72Hz
1280x720 48Hz, 72Hz
I got a displayport cable but no luck yet. What i can see is that the following builtin resolutions gives me the choice of 60Hz or 75Hz:
1280x1024
1280x960
1280x800
1280x768
1152x864
1024x768
And the following gives me the choice of 50Hz, 59Hz or 60Hz:
1920x1080
1768x992
1280x720
1176x664...
