CRU Timing and Strobe Utility settings for 60Hz.
QFT is created with 180Hz using "Native PC" Timing, then changed to 60Hz using Vertical Total Calculator.

Personally all my monitors are calibrated for 60nit which is equal to Strobe Pulse Width of 10.

Using the ICC profile I've shared in Novideo-sRGB, black shades are nice and even without crushing.
Again, extremely hard to photograph with a phone.

Can't say my sample has any edge light bleeding, just the typical IPS glow.

Nice!

I've tested whole range and listed all the optimal settings in a spreadsheet. It's from the review that never got finished. If anyone is interested here ya go:

Images are a bit compressed but it's fine for demonstrating differences in top-bottom crosstalk. Please view in full resolution.
