Massive eye strain with a new RTX 3070TI
Oh, I know what you mean! I had a similar problem last year.
I had terrible pressure and eye pain from my Radeon rx 570 video card
Severe eye pressure from the Nvidia 2060 super.
Not as much with the Gtx 1080 ti, but still not comfortable to use
In the case of gtx 1660s everything is great! But it is too weak and hot, noisy. But I'm afraid to buy something new

Luminous Can you tell me the exact model and brand of your 1660s?
I have a Palit 1660s stormx oc, with one cooler
I previously used a 1050ti and a gtx 770, there were absolutely no negative effects from them either
Luminous i had 3070 and give me eyestrain even i try everything there is still eyestrain. And now i think i found a solution. Before that i haye eyestrain use pc rtx 3070 and ps5. And i buy steam deck and steam deck very very good for eye, zero eyestrain, and i see banding everywhere, maybe steam deck dont have dithering. And then i play pc game via streaming use moonlight on my steamdeck, I play ps5 use chiaki on my steam deck. And no zero eyestrain. At least i can play without eyestrain anymore

I'm sorry for the stupid questions, but I'm in a similar predicament (I can't find a modern video card that doesn't make my eyes strain) if I understood your answers correctly, in chronological order your feelings were like this:
So i buy rtx 3070 gddr6 samsung and i can use it, dont hurt my eyes, i can play game for hours now. Only feel too bright, but dont make eye strain and no headache.
I have RTX 3070 and give me eyestrain, eye burning sensation, feel sleep all day, and headache.
My solution: use hdmi from monitor to motherboard. I use i5 12400. So when u browsing, watching movie it will use igpu. When play game, it will use rtx 3070.

Do I understand correctly that as a result you did not achieve an acceptable result on PC? (neither with 3070 nor with iGPU)
model 3070 was the same in all these cases? Did you have the same nvidia driver version?
have you tried Win11 22H2 ?
have you tried NvColorControl to disable dithering?

glvn yes, the ending all that give me eyestrain after i play a week, i have use that software nvcolorsetting but not result. My ultimate solution use steam deck to streaming game. I have use 2 month and no eyestrain, play forbidden west 71 hours, and last of us remake on pc without eye strain. RTX 3070 is still same. i still use win 10
