@fantaskarsef you're underestimating how obvious the effect would be.
Blurry text galore and nothing is sharply defined anymore. Open up Paint and draw a bunch of single pixels. Some would occupy 1 pixel on the 4K panel and others would occupy 2. Any sort of fine pattern, as Fox said, would also not show cleanly.

Stupid question probably, but why? Firmwares do control the screen, so?

Well yeah, can't see it, no blur here with the thinnest pain line I could draw, and the factory / service OSD menu states that the panel seems to be a 2560x1440 panel, as according to pages where I could order a couple of hundred of them for repair work.
I still can't imagine what somebody with this issue should do now.

Your XB270HU is a 1440p 144Hz G-Sync monitor. It would be practically impossible to have a 4K panel in there instead. It wouldn't pass Nvidia's QA nor be cheaper to do, since 4K 144Hz panels do not benefit from economies of scale (yet).

Well then it would be quite smart to note that somewhere. Only 60Hz panels effected. Although thinking about it, it makes sense of course.
Well, at least I learned how to find out what my panel's technical ID is.

Interesting. I keep an eye on my Dell S2716DG because we are many gamers than use it

I mean, you can probably let it out of your sight now, its unlikely Dell will sneak into your house and change the panel at this stage XD
