I've done that a thousand times. Even tinned the contacts to force them into greater pressure. That's the only thing that actually improved it. But not entierly.

>Bad or cheap cable maybe? I've had this happen using cheap cables.
I've tried everything (but BNC), even using a male-male adapter to COMPLETELY eliminate any cable, plugging my Delock 62967 directly to the monitor (and no the adapter is not creating this issue either, tested in many ways).
Interestingly the ghosting pattern does change depending on cable length, so the monitor is reflecting the video back to the cable and then it oscillates there creating the mess.

Paid 250€ for it, knowing it had this issue, in the hopes it would be a quick fix like interwebs told me .. well that didn't work out. But I will get it fixed one way or another. I'll fucking solder the video board on the mobo if everything else fails.
Otherwise the monitor is relatively low hour and has absolutely flawless uniformity and all. Just perfection, if it wasn't for this one stupid blemish.

Because I'm fucking with it. This monitor has dynamic convergence which lets you drag a 9x5 grid of points around to make it absolutely perfect. The monitor doesn't have a single convergence strip, it's designed to rely on this feature entierly.
So the convergence is a software calibration issue, that can wait before I fix the hardware issue.

Can it do 1080p120hz?

>I hear running WinDAS to access Sony's calibration software takes hours to set up and run, can anyone vouch?
It can be little hard to figure out how to get it running, but lucky for you, I figured it out for you. Here's the setup I've used, guaranteed to work:
WinDAS and DosDAS, patched and all https://files.catbox.moe/6eze81.rar
I used 64bit Windows 7 with this fix https://yewtu.be/watch?v=FR7apz7uWZ4
Used the red adapter from here https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000120687489.html

Do you have a GDM-F520 (or similiar)? Because this issue is quite common with GDM-F520's. The issue is stale contacts between the mother- and video boards, and possibly the neck board connector as well. So nothing to do with WinDAS.
Here's a cool party trick; apply pressure to the back of the monitor somewhere around the inputs. The ghosting may reduce.
Disassemble the monitor and reseat the video board. If it doesn't work, clean the contacts with some contact cleaner. Bend the pins a tiny bit.
This has always fixed it for me, though my case is very persistent, it always comes back in mere weeks.
I'm working on a permanent hardware mod to fix this problem permanently. I'll report about it once I actually get around to doing it

If you have such issues, then maybe try new cables, but if the picture looks good no need to fall for audiophile-tier fud.
And even if you have issues it's not necessarily the cables - the monitor itself can have problems like my F520 >>8487323.
>literally 10 cents from a cables bin in any thrift store.
Okay fair if you can actually find one, I actually looked around here and didn't find a single cable that looked good. Visited the biggest recycling centre / thrift store in the country and even they didn't got anything except a 10 meter long metal gigachad cable in a glass display case.
I have 5 of these random VGA cables and only 1 of them was bad.
