Re: Ensuring a flicker free gaming experience

Can someone please explain this: https://www.eetimes.com/document.asp?doc_id=1272249

Also I'm hearing due to the way lcd inherently work by the screen door effect of letting light through that we essentially have a million strobe lights flashing at our face lol.

Re: Ensuring a flicker free gaming experience

Wow, first of all thank you so much for so eloquently explaining all of this. It makes a million times more sense now. Thank you. Yea ive been reading a lot of demonizing about FRC on the net lately so I was concerned. Plus my friend says he's sensitive to FRC on any lcd but when it comes to tempora...

Re: Ensuring a flicker free gaming experience

[Chief Blur Buster's Note: I've added QUOTE wrappers where needed] Also, feeding 8-bit sources to 8-bit sources can still cause dithering due to math rounding errors of digital conversions. You really want to feed as many bits as possible (10-bit, 12-bit) to minimize the rounding errors. But this k...

Re: Ensuring a flicker free gaming experience

So guys let's say you have true 8 bit panel and you feed it a source that's say it's 6 bit... Does that cause dithering i.e temporal dithering or thee flashing of colors back and forth that may cause flicker? The reason I ask is because I hear the Nintendo switch is weak and may display colors in lo...

Re: Ensuring a flicker free gaming experience

Also guys another interesting thing. I tested on a samsung cfg70 which is supposed to have a true 8 bit panel for dithering. I ran some tests that test for dithering http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/gradient.php and https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/Dithering/ Now here's the interesting part. I ran t...

Re: Ensuring a flicker free gaming experience

Btw guys do oled screens use temporal dithering like 6 bit lcd would by flashing/alternating between 2 colors to create a different shade of color?

Re: Ensuring a flicker free gaming experience

Guys so I'm hearing from a source that amd cards by default force dithering to be on. Is this true? Also I hear nvidia does not have dithering enabled. I'm also hearing from this source that since ps4 and Xbox one use amd chipsets that they also gave dithering enabled. Any validity to this? Even if ...

Re: Ensuring a flicker free gaming experience

Also guys I came across this website that claims, if I understand correctly, that's even with no PWM there still is a PWM frequency at 60hz? Can someone please verify if this is true? https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edg ... e-t3517739

(I'll wait for link to answer that question)

The Samsung C24FG70 is a pretty good desktop monitor that meets "Better Than 60Hz" requirements.
I don't mind either. I'm prioritizing health.

Re: Ensuring a flicker free gaming experience

Not bullshit, but it's apples versus oranges. It's like trying to diagnose a broken bone using a thermometer. Or educating me about baseball by telling me hockey rules. Or trying to fix a car using a cake icing bowl. Wrong tool for the wrong job. Ask yourself: Are you bothered by flicker? Are you s...
