New monitors, new resolutions
in Computer Peripherals ·
What’s the deal with people saying it's better to just leave a monitor at 60 Hz instead of bumping it up to 75?
Sure, maybe it's easier on the hardware, but what about my eyes?
I don't get why my Dell UltraSharp lets me crank it up to 100 Hz, while this other screen—basically a TV/monitor hybrid—won't let me touch it.😢
I guess it's because one is a pure monitor and the other has those TV components built in.

Look at you, Mr. Genius 👏
Anyway, my actual question was about the best way to set up the resolution and refresh rate. I can see you're already halfway out the door, but hey, what's done is done.
I’d really appreciate some advice from anyone who actually knows the answer to these questions.🙂
Thanks

Thanks for the info, I really appreciate any advice I can get.
👍
For me, switching from a CRT to an LCD made a massive difference; it’s so much easier on my eyes now.

Looking for some advice from the pros here🙂
So, I've been using this Dell SyncMaster that tops out at 1280 x 1024. It’s a 19"
It was probably set to 60 Hertz, and honestly, it worked fine for me.
I'm happy with it because it doesn't strain my eyes, which is really the only thing that matters to me.🙂
But now I've picked up a Samsung P2270 HD—a 21.5" LCD HDTV that goes up to 1920 x 1080.
Since it can double as a monitor, should I stick with the old one or switch to the new one? Just to be clear, all monitors seem fine to me; my only concern is eye strain during my usual two hours of daily work.
What’s actually considered an ideal setting for work and eye comfort? Specifically regarding resolution and Hertz.
I heard that 100 Hertz might be best—is that okay?
The thing is, this new one only lets me go up to 75 Hz. If I try to push it higher, it gives me warnings saying these are "modes that this monitor cannot display correctly" and could "damage hardware." Obviously, I don't want to fry my equipment.
What would be the best move for someone like me who isn't a gamer and just uses a computer for basic stuff?
I'd really appreciate any input.😁
