Every monitor Ive ever had looks like crap over 60Hz. I can see the screen bouncing in the corners and such. So Ive always kept it at 60. :paranoid:

these things hurt your eyes? at my parents house i used to use i think it was 1200x1600 with 85hz refresh. I'd stare at it all day/night every day (during summer when nothing else to do) and it wouldn't cause my eyes any harm... then again staring at the sun doesn't hurt them either, maybe that has something to do with it?

Hahahaha, what a load of lying bollocks. Give it a minute of staring and if you don't have a nice big flashy circle where you used to be able to see things I'll mail you £10.

how much is £10 in US dollars? It may be worthy of making a vid of this... I can stand the sun for fifteen minutes before it does anything to me, that's when I start getting the "sunspot" thing, with the circle you see everywhere you look.

you seriously need to re-read what's been posted before that. slow this time so you can actually comprehend what's been put in front of you.

Lol, I'm not sending you the money really, but if you can really do that that though, you've got a stronger retina than I, well or you're cheating. This I know because I looked at the sun through the hole in the top of a baseball cap when I was 12 and I've still got a small blindspot in the centre of my field of vision 10 years later, not the smartest thing I've done :)

i guess i have strong retina then? light doesn't bother me at all. You know how when you're in a dark room for a while and someone turns on the lights. I'm usually the one yelling at people to quit their bitchin' cuz I forget it affects most people.

15 minutes of staring at the sun? I smell bullshit.

i won't go blind, and it's not bullshit, i've done it before because of stupid people making bids that I will go blind... obviously I can still see otherwise I wouldn't be typing this, and whether you believe me or not doesn't matter, I don't know you personally anyway, and if I did, I'd rather you not believe, maybe I could waist some more time staring into the sun to make money off of ya.
