Venting A thread dedicated to eye strain, and crap monitors dedsrs

[Deleted member 18912]

So.
Have any of you ever had eye strain in your whole life ?
Say..
ASUS VG248QE 24" LED Full HD 144Hz

Yeah.
This bad boy over here ^
It was released back in 2013 as one of the first 144Hz monitors, a beefy asshole with PWM technology.

There are hundreds of threads on reddit and other sites, talking about how the VG248QE by ASUS gives eye strain, migraines, and bad headaches.
In that regard, i´m not the only one affected by this.

Now.
How to counter the strong screen caused by this shit ?
100% Brightness... 100% for nigger retards wanting to get blind.

With that out of the way.
I´ve been trying in the best of my ability to get a good screen with as less eye strain as possible.
It´s ridiculous when playing on a GBA gives me less eye strain compared to this monitor.

In order to heal the symptoms from eye strain, one must stop watching any kind of screen completely for 12 to 16 hours at least.
Taking walks outside majorly improves your eye sight to return to normal, sitting in a dark room won´t be as effective. ( I´ve tried that )

So, in terms of monitor recommendations...
What kind of 144Hz monitor doesn´t tear your eyeballs to a toaster ?

I´m still calibrating this monitor btw
But the task itself is not an easy one.
Since it has to be one compatible enough for two completely different operation systems. ( WinXP/Win10 )

Get one that that flickers at a very high rate.

lol it should be one that doesn´t flicker at high rates dummy.
Flicker-Free, eye care etc...
Like the BenQ ones, but damn they are too expensive tbh
Any possible recommendations ?

Almost all modern monitors are flicker free, unless you intentionally enable strobbing like ulmb

You mean ELMB ?
I don´t use that mode, nor does this monitor have it either.
Problem is, i want one that is 24".
Nowadays, you only see 27" monitors, even if they were flicker free...
Some have already stated that 1080p won´t be as good with one of those monitors, since they are better used at 1440p.
Another detail, is that my table can´t have a 27" inch monitor, or else i won´t have any room for the speakers.
Yeah...

Get a 49 inch Sony Bavia FALD tv and use it as a monitor

Sitting nose to nose with a 49 inch screen ?
Damn bro
That´s not for me.
You see, i´m pretty close to my monitor.
24" is already big enough to my eyes.

I got two TV´s that are 32 inches, but the thought of using such a wide monitor is not suitable for this setup.
This is a fucking PC.
Not a console.

There are many cheap 144-165Hz in 24" format too, just look at your local computer store site and make filters, most shouldn't have any pwm these days, they even like to advertise it

Been there.

I wanted one similar to this ( in terms of specs ), but a little bit more cheap.
But how can you tell the release date of a monitor ?
I´ve tried googling a few models, and it simply doesn´t show.
Bummer..
Do you know a site that has the release date of all the models that come out by the manufacturers, so i can take a look ?

Those monitors are only good for racing simulation, not general use.
But yeah, aesthetically they look tempting.
Until it turns out to be an utter disappointment down the line.
Flat FTW
