Sold my XG2431 because in the end I realized it's nothing but a scam.
To experience the real CRT experience with 0 blurr you need to use Ultra Pure XP mode which dims the screen to 23 nits and is completely worthless even in a pure dark room. Even the mode above it extreme at 100 nits is way too dim even in a dark room.
The only really useful mode is light pure XP which is 200 nits but it has a lot of motion blurr still at that mode.
BenQ has the DYAC+ monitor which gives 250 nits on Premium mod and something like 330 nits on normal mode.
This is the monitor you want but it is TN although its a much better TN than old panels as TN has improved a lot.
Problem with BenQ is it doesn't support 60HZ and I wanted a BFI monitor with 60 HZ for street fighter and stuff or even Retro Games.
My last solution seems to be going with a VR Headset and using a virtual world with a cinema screen
Hello Evelynn,
As Blur Busters, a passionate hobby-turned-business, it's saddens me to hear you say this -- I worked very hard with this technology at less than 1/100th the budget that BenQ DyAC had. We were able to accomplish a lot despite this;
BenQ uses a voltage overclocking trick (voltage boosted strobes, >1000 nits) to average >200 nits via
Talbot Plateau Theorem, which was something the XG2431 hardware did not support, so we were unable to do that much voltage boosting.
However, we were able to achieve far less strobe crosstalk (double images) than a lot of competing strobe backlight technologies, while allowing full refresh rate flexibility, as well as least offering the choice of brightness-versus-motionclarity (that some others don't always offer, though BenQ DyAc did).
7 more models were undergoing Blur Busters Approved before the pandemic, until the chaos ensued, supply chain crisis, and model cancellations occured. About 3 were VA panels, which promptly failed the tests, and the others, were swept by cancellations/product delays. I had hoped that our company would get more approved, so we lost a lot of money on the pandemic. However, the logo program is now being rebooted.
Did you know, I was the one who got BenQ to add Strobe Utility support?

That was way back in the days before Strobe Utility. If you want to tune your BenQ, make sure you hit "F" key and select BenQ config A or B, if you want to tune your strobe a bit. It's already so well-tuned so you might not need it, but there you go.
Keep in mind that CRT tubes never went that bright in the past, back in the old days, CRT tubes were much dimmer than 300 nits (averaged). It's just that today, displays are bigger and (defaults brighter) than yesterday's CRT tubes. Many people of this era, are okay with a goo compromise of dimmer too.
I welcome your comments, it just makes me very sad as a passionate hobby-turned-business to hear that you are this dissapointed.
Hope you understand!
