Edit: Support said they will provide a shipping label for certain RMA requests. Edit 4/18: Received new monitor and after a week of having the RMA's monitor had 3 very visible stuck pixels, as well as many more stuck but less visible pixels. Sending the second monitor back. Will update on new monitor Update: Finally after three monitors I have one that does not have a dead or stuck pixels. But does have a lot of back light bleed. Not the best overall, spend the extra money and get a higher quality monitor.
