Hello and thanks for taking me into this group
My monitor (HP25x) is making me feel physically uncomfortable and giving me stress. This last month I've been trying to comprehend why I get this sensation. My monitor is TN. Before I had another HP; x24ih, also TN.
I also use a pen display for graphic software, it´s the Huion Kamvas 13 (IPS).
The problem is: When I look or stare at the monitor, it will catch my attention differently from other devices, like as it was something that shouldn't be there, when I use it, I gradually tilt my neck to the right, my shoulder feels heavier. Then when I'm going to stand up from the desk or grab a pen, or just scratch my nose making any movement my articulations slightly pop as if I were making an abrupt movement.
I found an old notebook I used to have, Hp Pavilion 14 Sleek book. When I used this, just by staying still or softly moving my wrist I get a sensation of relief (if I used the PC before). I didn´t notice the stress particularly as a thing until I used the notebook. After avoiding its use, I became more patient and started drawing a lot again (this is very important for me).
Before this I've been changing mouse, keyboard, chair, desk, etc. I didn't even get to think it had to do with my monitor after comparing my pc with the notebook. I went to the internet trying to found why was this difference and found out about many subjects I wasnt aware off: I started using 100% brightness on my devices. I dismounted my main monitor to leave it there with water on so I could remove an actual part of it: the "anti-glare coating", thinking that maybe that was the issue, blame it on the Tn, then blame it on the IPS. Read a lot of forums PWM brightness modulation/DC dimming, flicker-safe/flicker-free monitors. downloaded f.lux. But none of that had the effect on my computer I was looking for.
I found that if updated my PC´s display adapter to the "Microsoft Basic Display Adapter."
The issue will just go away. My graphics card is an NVidia GTX 1650. I dont mind changing it, but I havent really gotten to any conclusions. ¿Will this problem go away with a different card? ¿Maybe and AMD Radeon? Why is it even happening? I can provide media if needed.
Good evening and thanks for your help!
