To be perfectly clear, it took one (1) grand prix worth of play time on my monitor to make this happen. I’ve had my Acer Predator monitor for years with no burn-in from anything, and ~10 minutes with F-Zero caused this. Anyone else, or am I just unlucky?
I have IPS panels on my PC and it got into a shitty sleep/wake loop when I was away (I fucking blame discord!) and as it was going to sleep it had some distorted pixels right in the middle of the screen that persisted across reboot. I thought I had fried my GOU somehow; good to know IPS panels can behave this way
I had this issue once and now I always turn off my monitor when I’m done instead of trusting my computer to sleep properly.
