    There's very little difference between 0 - 15 on brightness. I'm using an nvidia NVS 290 card. personal preference is such a big factor in choosing a monitor. Thanks for all your contributions.

    best monitor to minimize eye strain - text based work

    I have another two weeks to evaluate, but I'lll probably return it (amazon). It sits next to my dell 2007wfp and there is no comparison. the g2400 has significant backlight bleed. In addition it is still way too bright, but when I dial down the settings (brightness & contrast - 15 & 60...

    best monitor to minimize eye strain - text based work

    snowdog - great post - the brighness of most monitors bothers me the most as well. I'm going to cancel my backorder at buy.com for the DoubleSight and go with the Benq G2400.

    best monitor to minimize eye strain - text based work

    I presently have a dell 2007WFP and I wanted to buy a second, but it seems to be no longer available on the Dell site. I like the dell, but white backgrounds are sparkly and there is also screen door effect. When I began to research buying another 20" to go next to the 2007WFP, I read that the...

    best monitor to minimize eye strain - text based work

    I'm going to buy 2 monitors in 20" to 26" range. Most important factor is minimizing eye strain. I do a lot of reading of text on white background, but switch frequently to other applications that have a darker background. Are there any monitors that reduce the brightness / contrast...

    Hotkey to Toggle Color Settings with 2007wfp?

    I have an ati card - I'm wondering if there are any utilities / scripts out there that could change the color settings or brightness via hotkeys. I've searched quite a bit but have not found anything yet.

    Hotkey to Toggle Color Settings with 2007wfp?

    I have a dell 2007wfp and I'd like to be able to quickly toggle between "PC Normal Color" and "PC Custom Color." Is this possible without having to go through the OSD menu each time?

    When I view a dark photo straight on, it is mostly black, but when I move to the left or right, the photo is more visible - more detail. Is this what 3d shift is? In this photo, I can't see the pipes at the top when viewed directly, but are clear when viewed on an angle. Does this confirm I...

    Assuming I can live with the screendoor effect, my main issue is the brightness. Are monitors with PVA panels generally a lot brighter than S-IPS panels?

    Dell Censors Panel lottery info. Share info here.

    Regardless if it is PVA or S-IPS, my main complaint about this monitor is that it is too bright and it has a noticeable screen door effect. When I set brightness below 30 (20 presently), the color quality really degrades. Any recommendations for a LCD for mostly text and web browsing that...

    I get this error with several different browsers: "You don't have permission to access /o4/04/606404/1/59690548.1920Shadow.jpg on this server." Any other way to get this photo - possibly another link or search term within pbase?

    My panel is PM330, but it has the typical purple tinge associated with S-IPS panels when viewing a black screen on an angle.
