cybee disregard my above comment I think I am misunderstanding and have the wrong monitor. There is a monitor coming out but I don't think it's this one now. https://www.blurbusters.com/strobed-freesync-asus-tuf-vg32vq-gaming-monitor-has-elmb-sync-simultaneous-freesync-and-blur-reduction/ I think it's this one. For some reason I thought it was this Acer monitor. I was wondering why that feature wasn't getting more attention.
144Hz/240Hz Screens - not just for gaming?
cybee I bought a Samsung CFG70 I think 2 and 1/2 years ago. At the time I thought because it was quantum dot it was going to solve my problems. Probably about 10 months ago I discovered it had the strobing option. Couldn't use the screen but with strobing I could. I almost thought it was good but about a week in started having trouble with it. I believe it's just the mild flicker which is less harsh then PWM. I still have hope for strobing though. I have it on my LG monitor right now but I don't have display port. It can't be activated with HDMI.
jasonpicard who knows, maybe, CRTs are basically BFIing all the time...
jasonpicard have you actually gotten the Freesync strobing working on the LG? it requires AMD Radeon 570+ (i have one coming).
- Edited
reaganry I can't use it because I only have it hooked up by hdmi. I run 120hz on the computer and 60 Hz with consoles and max settings for overdrive. I don't have display port. The technology to run freesync and strobing at the same time not sure if it exists yet? Are you saying this monitor supports that?
Markus No unfortunaltely the releasedate was moved till end of august (28th) 
jasonpicard oh, no i guess not 
Does Lightboost=strobing=BFI? this guy says: " I have a 120hz 1080p display that can do black frame insertion/strobing. Black frames make an LCD look like a CRT. It removes LCD persistence, which started really screwing me up several years ago. I would lose my character or cursor in complex scenes when fighting in say a MOBA. Black frame insertion was a savior and I simply will not consider a monitor without it."
reaganry yeah different monitors have different names for it. On a Samsung monitor is labelled as fastest. Light boost was the first name for it I think.

Guys are you talking about "Π°ΡΡΠΈΠ³ΠΌΠ°ΡΠΈΠ·ΠΌ"? I have this problem too. And many others people in russianspeaking eyes forum faced with this problem. But i haven't figured out with this. Doctor said me to buy glasse with Glasses with accommodation unloading but i haven't buy it yet. You storry make me feel bettey and give an hope that this can solve my problem. I will try to fit glasses for me next week and write here about my results
arturpanteleev No, the word you used is astigmatism (spherical distortions). This is not what was mentioned, the most recent reply is about Π½ΠΈΡΡΠ°Π³ΠΌ which is small jerking movements of the eye, which can be caused by many things including inner-ear disorders. I would advise you, if you're getting glasses for desktop use, to tell the person making the prescription how far away you sit in CM from your screen. It is not enough to say reading distance, because the distance for books is different from that of screens.
