Got Sceptre x270w
even without monitor pixel test I saw horizontal lines half to 2" length on any not solid color
it's like a pattern.
DRC (dynamic contrast) on or off had no effect.
It's very visible on 40%-60% green and 50%-80% gray
it's all over screen
I used DVI & hdmi with native 1920x1080 res. checked on 3 diff PC - the same issue.
poor Q.C.
good I got it from costco, bad I wasted time ...

I checked internet and didn't find any one complain about issue I got with this monitor
Check for some screen shots:

Oh that has to be a broken unit. I would bet money working units don't look like that. Did you at least try a replacement?
