Unfortunately I couldn't get the eyestrain fixed. Even when I managed to mimic my old monitor side by side with brightness/contrast tweaks, I still had trouble looking at the glossy woled screen vs. being very comfortable looking at the old tn.
Do you think a QD-OLED with matte instead might ...

Yes I did. Unfortunately I was hoping that would be the issue but no luck.

I recently got an Asus XG27AQDMG and the first 4 squares in the lagom black square test are indistinguishable. The 5th and 6th squares are just barely different. My previous monitor dell sd2716dg displayed all squares perfectly but it was a TN.

Is there something I'm doing wrong? haven't touched ...

when I start up my PC, after about 3-4 seconds, everything will freeze and then resume as normal.
During those first 3-4 seconds before the freeze, the mouse feels really good and the screen is nice to look at.
Afterwards, it goes to shit.

EDIT: also wanted to mention that before the freeze, about ...
