    The test was apparently only between 30 and 60 Hz. It doesn’t seem like it was well researched, and there is no clear reason why this would ever even need to be a study other than high refresh rate display manufacturers wanting a new special label they can upcharge for basic features that were previously and are currently included in the display base price.

    Is this news? In the early 2000s I couldn’t stand working with 60Hz monitors, there was noticeable flicker. Setting them to 72Hz was a definite improvement.

    About 90 percent of my coworkers were like, “Why are you fiddling with the display settings? Flicker? Wot flicker?”
