Title: What's the dimmest monitor Post by: 420 on January 26, 2013, 09:20:41 AM What monitor goes the darkest; the lowest brightness
Title: Re: What's the dimmest monitor Post by: squall1066 on January 26, 2013, 05:34:17 PM I have never herd anyone asking that, I really don't know, All I know is the old CRT monitors (with twiddle controlls)could be turned down to blank! Just been checking my TFT screens, And all go to nearly blank, I assume they all go really dark.
Puzzled why this is a problem for you? ??? Title: Re: What's the dimmest monitor Post by: payb.tc on January 26, 2013, 05:38:57 PM i wish i knew too... late at night, light off, monitor is too bright on it's lowest setting...

Title: Re: What's the dimmest monitor Post by: crazyates on January 26, 2013, 06:51:08 PM Lol to be honest, I have my LED LCD monitor turned down to the lowest possible brightness. It hurts my eyes if it's too bright.
If your LCD is still too bright, can't you just get one of those privacy filters or something similar to artificially dim the screen?
