LightBoost, a strobe backlight that eliminates motion blur, is very adjustable. The motion blur differences of different LightBoost settings have now been photographed! Is LightBoost 10% worth the brightness loss for improved motion clarity? See the...

While waiting for Blur Busters to test the FG2421, our friends at TFTCentral has posted their EIZO FG2421 review! Their extremely detailed review is worth a...

Apparently good reviews of the EIZO FG2421 appears to be flowing in. The FlatPanelsHD review appears glowing, and Morkai of HardForum, has decreed “The first and only LCD so far i’d call good enough for anything” …. “bah, it’s good enough until...

The tsunami wave of low-persistence CRT-motion-quality LCD’s continues. Hot on heels of G-SYNC official strobe mode, and EIZO’s Turbo240 official strobe mode, BENQ announces the XL2720Z (Z-suffix) with the Motion Blur Reduction feature, which Blur Busters confirms is another high-efficiency LightBoost-style strobe...

The EIZO Foris FG2421 is marketed by Eizo as a “240Hz” monitor.  How is 240Hz accomplished out of simply repeating a 120Hz refresh without interpolation? There a good, valid scientific rationale: 1. First pass refresh is overdriven, done in total darkness (erases previous...

Eizo has announced the Foris FG2421, a new 240Hz VA monitor has been released! This is the retail gaming version of the previously released FDF2405W professional monitor which also uses a official/optional strobe backlight setting to eliminate motion blur. No interpolation is used!...

At least one source mentioned 177Hz support for future G-SYNC monitors, including Guru3D. We noticed this number exactly matches DisplayPort 1.2 single channel bandwidth of 8.8 Gbits/sec. (half of 17.6 Gbits/sec dual-channel). 1920×1080 x 24-bit x 177 Hz = ~8.8...

It is observed NVIDIA G-SYNC is also useful for low-latency fixed refresh rate applications as well: It accelerates frame delivery from GPU to monitor: Frames are delivered from GPU to monitor in 1/144sec instead of 1/60sec when running at 60Hz!...

UPDATE: This is old information, posted before G-SYNC was released. Blur Busters now has a G-SYNC monitor (see Our Preview of G-SYNC) with ULMB. 85Hz strobing is confirmed, however, 144Hz strobing is not available. Good news for people who want “LightBoost”...
