Dell 2408wfp image sharpness worse over horizontal axis

[fuxxy]

Dell 2408wfp, rescued from dumpster 2 years ago, Replaced logic board.

Ever since then, I've had a hard time using this monitor, it felt like the image was blurry and out of focus, especially with text. Lately I've noticed that the problem seems to worsen over the horizontal axis of the screen.

Looking for speculation or suggestions what this could be caused from.

Images attached.

Check all capacitors on main and power board you may also have a bad T-con board
dirty LVDS cable

I fixed it!

Honestly, not really sure what exactly the cause was..

I took the unit apart, removed the TCON board, and re-soldered the LVDS connector on the TCON board. I also cleaned the connections for the LVDS connector and cable, and put it back together - Problem gone!
