Hi, I would like to ask you if you noticed this problem when playing with games in HDR mode: after playing for some minutes the problem appears at the left or right edge of the screen (just near the black bezel) with a sort of discoloured light/colour which extends vertically. The issue appears in bright scenes particularly with reds, greens, browns or yellow colours when you move the mouse around or when the character runs in a game and the scene moves. I have recorded two videos showing this issue at the left side of the screen that appears only in HDR mode:



The games I recorded above are Shadow of the Tomb Raider and Horizon Zero Dawn but it appears with all HDR games I tested. My monitor is a 4k PC display certified HDR600. Changing graphics drivers, colour settings and other settings did not solve the problem.
Did you notice the same problem in HDR mode with your PC monitors?
