Yeah, that's the one I have. I had to monkey around with the settings a bit to get it to look decent for non-gaming purposes, though.

The faster we can get everyone into teams, the better. If you show up after a round has started, you will have to wait until that match is over.

So Marshal, Flush and I are covered. What a world of difference huh? Same thing as you said, my eyes dont feel like they are dying anymore, and I dont get eye strain. Its like using an old school CRT from back in the day. Who knew a monitor could make sure a world of difference. Also World BATL is cool.

Actually I only bought it to reduce eye fatigue by being flicker free while also pushing out 120hz, plus the insane color contrast and true black, which really helps if your a video/image editor. Also I believe light boost does the opposite oddjob, light-boost is basically a strobed backlight that actually increases the flicker of a monitor, which would probably murder my eyes, but for those that don't have eye fatigue problems, it will help with avoiding motion blur. Also, I bought it for $400, 600 is crazy talk. Edited November 12, 2014 by Oneill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
