See, now I completely agree with you, and had you stated that from the get go, no argument since that is factual.True, the LCD's don't "flicker" like the old CRT's but you can get one to appear as if it's flickering if you set the refresh rate too low, and you can make it really wig out bad if you go too high. Running only "supported" refresh rates for the corresponding resolutions will not adversely affect the monitor, it's when you push those boundaries by going to "unsupported" refresh rates that you run into trouble...if you're running at "native"/"recommended"/"maximum" resolutions, then yes you do stand a greater chance of having problems by running refresh rates higher or lower than the recommended.It is not required to run an LCD monitor in native/recommended/maximum resolution by any means...and depending on what you're doing, it is sometimes better to run lower resolutions/higher refresh rates as long as your monitor has a decent dot pitch, can handle the proper scaling and you don't exceed the maximum refresh rate for that monitor.I don't suppose you have had to support anyone with less than perfect vision?
