Re: Weird Blur With Acer GN246HLB

Make sure frame rate is 120 frames per second. Because 60fps at 120Hz will have double images. Try to keep framerates matching refresh rates when using LightBoost (or ULMB or any blur reduction tech) I have made sure that I run games at 120 fps but it doesn't solve the issue and the blur is on yout...

Re: Weird Blur With Acer GN246HLB

I've done this and it fixed the blur however the screen has gone slightly purple how can I fix this? How purple is it currently? There is a very old LightBoost FAQ (2012, 2013) here, which also explains how to fix the purple color. Read the section "My color is too purple!". Essentially, the key pa...

Re: Weird Blur With Acer GN246HLB

I did that but there is only 120hz and it doesn't seem to have enabled light boost as I'm still getting the weird blur Damn, OK, there's a different method. 1. Download ToastyX CRU from http://www.monitortests.com 2. Open CRU and click "Edit" on your 1920x1080 120Hz mode. 3. Change Vertical Total t...

Re: Weird Blur With Acer GN246HLB

Hmmm. GN246HL does support LightBoost. However, it's enabled a very differently than others. (Since it's only partially supported by ToastyX) Go into Windows Search Box -> type "Change Display Settings" then go to "Display Adaptor Properties". Then click "Monitor" tab. Then change "Screen Refresh R...

Re: Weird Blur With Acer GN246HLB

Please re-read what I just said yesterday: Alternatively, download ToastyX Strobelight from http://www.monitortests.com ( Run strobelight-setup.exe and ignore the error message when it fails -- then reboot and run strobelight.exe to turn on LightBoost ....). LightBoost is another method of disablin...

Re: Weird Blur With Acer GN246HLB

You are right, This model has no overdrive on/off setting. Try enabling LightBoost instead. It also gets rid of those bright-glow ghosting (coronas). I tried to use strobe light and it installs but then after reboot it just says there are no compatible displays found, any clue on how to fix this?

The trick was to freshly re-enable OD every time that blur appeared to me.
There isn't an OD option

Re: Weird Blur With Acer GN246HLB

Is this display an old 1st gen 120hz one, just like Acer GD245HQ? I owned GD245HQ in 2010-2013, and had pretty much the same buggy color distorted blur, but I've found a workaround/solution to this. Afair, 1. Enable service menu 2. In service menu, turn OD = Off 3. Then select "Reset" in service me...
