Elemental Posted February 21, 2017 Content Count: 3287 Joined: 01/06/14 Status: Offline Share Posted February 21, 2017 So today I upgraded from a 19" LCD (1440x900) screen to a 22" Acer LED screen to get that sweet crispy 1920x1080. What I wasn't expecting is the immense brightness increase. I'm not even sure it's really brightness, but the whites are EXTREMELY MOTHERFUCKING white, like, eye-searing / headache-inducing white. I've tried messing with the brightness of the screen, which does lesser the effect, but the quality suffers from this alot. This might just be a case of getting used to it, but it does seem way too bright. With this upgrade also came an upgrade of using a DVI cable to an HDMI cable. Since then, I've noticed in CS:GO that my screen seems to be a bit "shocky" Any of this familiar with people that underwent the same upgrade?
