How many seconds per frame does it get?

[–] crimsonpoodle@pawb.social 6 points 6 days ago

I think it says 23Hz or something

[–] blackn1ght@feddit.uk 28 points 1 week ago

Not sure yet, we're still waiting for the first frame to finish.

If the answer matters then your use case isn’t this monitor’s use case. If you spend all day in Excel, or an IDE, something like that, then it could be awesome for eye strain reduction.

Isn't eye strain mostly due to distance?

I’m no optometrist, but I would love to hear the opinion of one.

I checked and while it seems to certainly have an influence, it doesn't seem to be the main thing making a difference.

I've never had eye strain from a CRT or LCD.

Enough to run doom

It can display Oblivion Remastered at it's native framerate though.
