I was in talks with BenQ asking them for some help selecting a monitor. I asked them if they made any models that do not use temporal dithering and they confirmed with me that the following do not utilize it. There may be other models, but I specifically asked for a casual/media monitor and a gaming monitor. Below are two models that they listed. I ordered the first one with the T for the adjustable stand.

General Use / Casual Monitor:
GW2780 or GW2780T (The T model has a different stand that is height adjustable, otherwise they are the same.)

Gaming:

That said, this is why I asked in a previous thread about where the buck stops with temporal dithering. If the GPU supports it and sends the signal to the monitor, I’m hoping the monitor has the option to ignore the instructions. There was no response in that thread, so it’s still an open question.

I hope this helps.

    If the GPU is dithering, the monitor will show dithering. The GPU sends a dithered frame to the monitor, and the monitor displays it. There is no ability for the monitor to ignore dithering from the GPU. Overall, both are capable of adding dithering, and frequently both will add dithering. If you seek a dither free setup, you need a setup where neither GPU nor monitor add dithering.

      Intel integrated graphics uses spatial dithering by default, and can be turned off altogether using software called ditherig.

      There are settings in Nvidia and AMD GPUs that do not dither, but they vary by model and you'll need a capture card + software to know for sure which settings are not dithering.

      Seagull Thanks for the heads up. This is sort of a bummer. I have a NUC that uses integrated graphics which is good for work and most other tasks, but I also have a gaming rig that I have barely used with an older Nvidia 1070. Since discrete graphics cards vary, I hope I can find a remedy for the one I currently have or a newer card that offers the ability to limit dithering since I am a little overdue for an upgrade.

      a month later

      I want to revisit this statement. Were you referring to static dithering or temporal?
