Dear all,
I have a quick question here. As I am currently doing alot of programming work, I find my Viewsonic 19 inch to be really fatiguing to my eyes. I am not sure if it's setting problems or whatsoever, but could anyone recommend me on my next LCD purchase perhaps? (targetting for those around 22" size, budget can give and take lah, provided the monitor is good)
Usage: Heavy programming work, anime, abit of gaming.
Oh and if anyone can recommend me settings to decrease my eye fatigue and headache it'd be very much recommended. Thanks in advanced.
There are people sensitive to the cold-cathod fluorescent frequency used for back-lighting. You may want to try the new 22 and 24 inchers LED based back-light Dell monitors (a bit more expensive, but saves energy and maybe better for your eyes)

Will google abit to check on how to reduce eye strain. Haha. Refresh rate had been set to high also.
LCD to not refresh like CRTs (that needs a constant/repeated frequency of electron bombardment/excitement), the liquid crystals are twisted by a constant voltage which would remain so until a different voltage is applied for a different colour signal. This has more to do with the pixel response time, g2g or b2b.
Coding... you will not notice difference even if you drop the frequency to 20 or 30Hz on a LCD monitor
