Gray banding on ASUS ROG XG27AQDMGR

I have owned this monitor for 2 weeks now. Gray banding was present from the start, and I decided to live with it because most of the time it was unnoticeable.

But recently I started playing this new Silent Hill game, and now it's kind of ruining the experience for me.

Gray banding is VERY noticeable in this game. The photo doesn't really represent what I see with my eyes. The light gray foggy color (which is everywhere in this particular game) is not even at all.

I just want to warn everyone that this may be a real issue with this monitor in certain games/scenarios.

In every other aspect, the monitor is GREAT. It would be 12/10 if not for the gray banding issue.

EDIT: latest firmware, manufacture date - April 2026
