One big tip, the image quality of the FG2421 looks better when you let it warm up for 1 hour. Ghosting is worst when you turn on the monitor (when panel is cold), but mostly disappears after letting the monitor warm up. VA panels are pretty temperature-sensitive for ghosting. This is really...

I am getting very consistent Version 2 reports from several vendors so based on this new consistency, I would think that by now, monitors on overclockers.co.uk will now be shipping V2. So hopefully, it should be safe to order from this site by now. There are hundreds of people who are very...

If your graphics card has two DVI ports, try the other DVI ports. Some older graphics cards only has dual-link on only one of the two DVI ports.

Hello, The Strobe Utility is a free adjustment utility for Z-Series monitor users (BENQ XL2411Z, XL2420Z, XL2720Z); This adjusts advanced BENQ Blur Reduction settings. - Make BENQ Blur Reduction brighter than LightBoost - Make BENQ Blur Reduction clearer with sharper-looking motion...

Z-Series users will want to be aware of the Blur Busters Strobe Utility, for tweaking BENQ Blur Reduction.

Totally agree that PWM is a problem. However, keep in mind it depends on what your eyestrain/headaches/fatigue is caused by: -- Motion blur eyestrain (focussing muscules straining to focus on motion) -- PWM artifacts (instead of PWM flicker) -- Extreme brightness -- Flicker There are hundreds...

Better LightBoost Color Settings: For a quick fix to make colors more saturated, and undo the LightBoost gamma bleaching effect, adjust nVidia Control Panel settings to: nVidia Control Panel Desktop Brightness = 52% nVidia Control Panel Desktop Contrast = 45% nVidia Control Panel Desktop Gamma...

It certainly looks best at framerates matching refresh rate. Viewing www.testufo.com/photo while LightBoost is enabled, shows how pretty LightBoost is during framerate=Hz. LightBoost eliminates so much motion blur, that stutters/tearing can become much easier to see. So some LightBoost...

G-SYNC includes a sequel to LightBoost that's better than LightBoost, and officially sanctioned for 2D (probably under an unannounced brand name), probably with better colors and additional strobe rates such as 85Hz and 144Hz. Paste from another forum:

Not quite necessarily, -- Some get more eyestrain from flicker -- Some get more eyestrain from motion blur during extended fast motion If you use good motion-blur-reducing strobing (CRT-style), it can be less evil for some people than unsynchronized PWM (creates artifacts) for some people...

Sometimes you can have your cake and eat it too, if you have the right TV model. See HDTV Refresh Rate HOWTO: True 120Hz From PC to TV. Definitely, but only if you have enough horses inside your GPU. "Scotty, we need more power". In a scientific blind test, gamers overwhelmingly preferred...

Yes, that's pretty true, you need to reduce detail levels a bit, or run slightly older games. Battlefield 3 can more easily run at 120 frames per second if you've got a SLI of powerful graphics cards (e.g. 780 SLI). Crysis3 can run at 120fps most of the time if you've got a 780 SLI, and you...

You can see my name on that page too. I'm the one who helped make ToastyX Strobelight work successfully on BENQ monitors. LightBoost definitely still looks best at 100fps@100Hz, or 120fps@120Hz. (LightBoost works at 100, 110 and 120Hz). If you can't sustain high framerates, it's probably...

Moderators, can you do me a big favour and edit the topic title? More models of LightBoost monitors were discovered since the thread was created. OLD TOPIC TITLE: "BENQ XL2411T - Zero motion blur tweak! Looks like CRT (Enable LightBoost strobe backlight in 2D; no 3D needed)" NEW TOPIC...

I have now added the new Easy ToastyX Strobelight method to this LightBoost instructions: These instructions replace the ones that were posted last May and earlier, as ToastyX Strobelight now makes LightBoost as easy as pressing a keypress -- no registry tweaks and no INF files are needed...

60fps @ 120Hz can have less input lag, since the frames are delivered to the screen in 1/120sec instead of 1/60sec. This can have a noticeable effect in input lag. Also, if it's one of the supported 120Hz monitors with LightBoost, make sure to try out the updated LightBoost HOWTO for even...

If you're using a Samsung 3D monitor, you can run it at 120Hz in 2D mode, and also use the Samsung Zero Motion Blur HOWTO, too.

You generally need to use DVI or DP with 120Hz monitors. HDMI usually won't support 120Hz at 1080p (exceptions), so you will need to use a DVI cable. That said, I'd like to mention this, just in case this rock hasn't been turned yet: Common problem: Often, a graphics card has two DVI ports...

The new Blur Busters UFO Motion Tests at www.testufo.com is now in open public beta. It is 100% HTML5 and requires no Flash, no plugins. (Google Chrome appears to works best). Make sure you have the system pre-requisites at www.testufo.com/browser.html Several tests can be selected at the...

I have confirmed that these are compatible with ToastyX Strobelight. There's a new method of enabling LightBoost now, called ToastyX strobelight (works on both AMD and nVidia graphics cards) -- that allows you to turn on/off LightBoost motion blur elimination with just an easy hotkey. The...
