    So I noticed my MSI GS65 screen has very slight bowing. Could this be due to the magnets pulling the corners down when I lift from the middle?

    Edit: I noticed if I manually move it back to a straight line, it significantly increases backlight bleed, so the bend screen seems to have the lowest backlight bleed

    It's probably the pressure behind the screen that causes the issue but it's best not to force it, however you can try to loosen the screws a little but proceed with caution.

    No, I was referring to the holder bracket on the sides that held the screen in place, if they are tight they may cause that pressed look (bleeding) on the LCD screen.
