Setting the Refresh Rate

The image refresh rate is the number of times per second that the image is refreshed; it is also known as the vertical frequency.

On standard CRT displays, we recommend that you should use the highest possible refresh rate supported by your computer at the current screen resolution. This is necessary to avoid screen flickering and to minimize eyestrain. However, with your monitor, flicker is not an issue. It is flicker-free at all supported refresh rates.

The table in “Video Mode” on page 27 shows the image refresh rates supported by the monitor at different screen resolution. Although your monitor supports up to 75 Hz for analog video input, we recommend that you use 60 Hz refresh rate for best performance.

To set the refresh rate with a standard Windows installation, follow the steps mentioned in your Unknown Video Modes

Like all other monitors, your monitor is designed to work with standard video modes. However, not all video/graphic cards use only standard display modes.

Your monitor uses state-of-the-art technology, which is designed to synchronize to any display mode. We recommend selecting one of the supported modes listed above. If you select an unknown mode, you will need to manually adjust the clock, phase, and image position.

If you must use an unknown mode, you can run Auto setup at first. If Auto setup doesn’t provide the adequate image adjustment, then you must manually adjust the clock, phase, horizontal position, and vertical position.
