Can't look at the display on Win11: advice for settings or for a new display

simplex

Thanks. The iGPU is UFD 730. Is that supposed to work without dithering? The display is old and its most advanced connection is DVI-D. I do not know whether I can find cables that make this connection possible, but even if there is such a cable, would't that be another possible source of visuall issues?

Thanks. I needed the 100 refresh rate on CRTs. I have been using this display with its 60 Hz refresh rate without any problems on my previous computer. Is it possible that I was able to use it on on the old computer with GTX 650 +Win 10 and that in spite of that, I cannot manage with the new computer with GTX1650+Win 11? If that is the case, what may be causing the problem?

Since the display is good but quite old, I would not like to invest in additional hardware, especially if it is not certain that it would work. Therefore, in case I do not manage to find a solution with the current display, I would appreciate some advice regarding a new display.

I know I should look for a display with no dithering, no flicker, no PWM, no FRC, and preferably high brightness.

Is refresh rate important and if so, what refresh rate would be sufficient (I am not a gamer)?

Since my vision is far from perfect I need the text to have reasonable size. (currently I have a 24inch 1920x1200 display and I use windows scaling (125%). I assume that this implies that I should look for a display with 1920X1200 or 1920X1080. Is that right? Is there any reason to prefer one of these over the other?

I currently have a 24 inch display. It is big enough for me. Is there a reason to prefer a 27 inch?

What other specs should I take into consideration?

Thanks for any advice

Sunspark What is logical scaling? Is this the same as Window's scaling? I use Windows scaling on 125%. I had no issues with this on my previous Win 10 computer. But I do have problems on my new Win 11 computer.

moonpie Thanks. I use a dGPU becuase the screen is 1920x1200 and I have to connect it with a DVI-D cable. I was afraid that using a cable that is not DVI-D to DVI-D would cause additional problems. Was I wrong?

moonpie Thanks. I am not sure I understand what you wrote. My previous computer also had a dGPU and I used Windows10 125% scaling. I had no problems. Now with the new dGPU and Windows 11 125% scaling I have a problem. Is it possible that Windows 10 scaling does not cause problems whereas Windows 11 scaling does?

moonpie Do you mean I have to turn off the Windows11 125% scaling? and if so, is there another way to be able to see properly? (I use the Windows scaling because increading text size is not sufficient, as everything elese remains too small).

Is it still possible to buy windows 10?
