Obviously Dell is shit, and I knew this going in, but I didn't really think their shit would also be in their monitors too...
Have had the 240Hz AW2518HF for a few months now, and the thing blinks like a motherfucker. Randomly it will just black screen for 2-3 seconds, even though everything on the hardware/software level is running as normal.
Anyone dealt with this type of bullshit before? Pretty sure I'm just going to be dealing with a 500$ paperweight since Dell's return policies are fucking garbage.
Don't be ridiculous. It's clearly defective. Return it under warranty. If they give you shit, get your credit card company involved and threaten a chargeback.

your problem has to do with the games you're playing. this monitor is insane, especially if you can get it for the $380 ish price when it goes on sale...

o wait, you have the HF model. thats why.i dont remember the g-sync version having this issue, only the AMD. sucks for you i guess.

People have reported it with the H model as well, it seems to be a thing with the 240hz dell monitors.
The worst part is Dells policies, they pretty much only do replacements, and people have gone through 2-3 replacements with the same thing out of the box.
Should have just been patient and went with the XF250Q....
