and another fact why i buy ultrawide if my pupil cant get visualisation of all screen without eyestrain? dont know how to describe it english but sometimes you have this visual effect of ultrawide and your pupils set another position and it makes you pain
AOC CU34G2XP/BK (34 VA CURVED) huge eyepain

technicalitch cheers but ips > va
i agree that this specific supplier/manufacturer of the VA panel in the monitor you tried really sucks. sounds like a terrible experience.
but, technically not all VA is the same. i have a really old VA TV from 2004 (Sharp LC-G5C26U) that i actually prefer to all IPS screens that i've ever tried. it's one of my main screens i use today because of how comfortable it is.
so i don't necessarily think the concept of VA itself is the source of the problem here, but rather a lot of other things wrong with this monitor, or something wrong with the panel's specific implementation of VA because it sounds VERY different compared to how the VA panel in my old Sharp TV feels.
(but yeah there's definitely many differences between a 2004 VA TV and a new VA monitor lol)
Yep, it depend on current panel: *VA could be good as IPS and as TN-film. Engeneer factor

sorry for my chaotic posts but im really pissed off. its 5th monitor and its only worse and i get drunk yesterday i back to Monitor AOC Q24G2A/BK and i have less symptoms (maybe because of high ppi?, maybe because of IPS? idk) but they are still here. no matter how i look at this ultrawide it always gives me pain. yesterday i took friend to my house for few hours and said him to play games on ultrawide monitor and he didnt had any problems xD no comment

the worst on this va panel is that black and colors is different from angle you look, you move head contrast of black moves. the one thing that really helped me was lowering contrast in software because this brightness and contrast at built in monitor menus are weird. contrast is like brigthness and brightness like contrast. when i lowered down illuminance of panel it helped me but still it was weird and extremley painful. va is not for me i prefer this ips, on ips i also have eyestrain but not hardcore like on this curved ultrawide va
btw which monitors have no pixel inversion problems? maybe its my problem
For my opinion, 60hz panels, with big pixel PPI, with slow pixels (20..30ms), with good coating (half matte), is always nice

checked once again this ultrawide VA panel and i was seeing this wallpaper on my desktop as 3D man xD especially the red parts it was shining in my eyes so much and it was more like 3D vision not flat object
on IPS i look at same wallpaper and no have 3d effect when i look at it wtf
thats crazy but i still have no idea what causes this
now on AOC Q24G2A/BK i see this 3d effect. isnt it panel backlight make this effect to me? whats wrong with these new monitors i cant understand wtf is happening. never had problems like this before
idk if that ips glow effect is causing this or what, need to study this more
and another thing why when i set contrast on monitor it also changes brightness? sometimes people use contrast menu at monitor to reduce brightness. its weird
technicalitch i set contrast on monitor
Check this, how brightness/contrast work
in this thread dude have same problem like me, after looking at ultrawide curved va when i looked to normal flat monitor i also saw normal monitor like round shape xD
i messaged aoc support about my problem can you believe told me im first person that report eyestrain problems? lol
1st message was lower contrast and brightness and go to doctor. it doesnt help
