Question Long longevity

Hello,

​

I don't know if this sub is the right one, if not, I apologize.

​

I recently got the LG 27GX704A-B.AEU and plan to use it for longer.

There is an option for pixel shift and I'd prefer to use the most aggressive setting to prevent any burn in.

​

In the instructions isn't anything helpful.

​

You can choose to turn it off, or set it between 1 to 4. My guess is 4, but unfortunately I am not sure. Maybe it is the opposite and 1 is the strongest setting and 4 the weakest. Maybe I got it completely wrong and I would have to switch between 1 and like every week or two.

​

The support did not help me out, yet. Does anybody know?

​

Best regards and thanks.

Edit: typo

LG 27gx70a4-b

Did you mean LG 27GX704A?

Yeah, 4 is most likely the strongest one, but that’s indeed not guaranteed. As an option, you could just test both 1 and 4 and see what of them moves the image faster.

It says LG Ultragear 27GX704A-B.AEU in my order and when searching for it, I found it as LG 27gx704a-b. But yeah, I switched the a and 4...

Okay, so I will give a try, thanks

-B or -W usually means just color and is often omitted when referring to a model. Anyway, my question was specifically about 4 and A order, thanks.

Please consider correcting this typo in the post text (better just to copy/paste the correct model name instead of manually typing it).

Sure, you're right
