The higher the resolution, the       higher the technical quality.              But with higher resolution, software assumptions can break down for       individual users. The net effect is that user experience can be degraded       because onscreen objects, text in particular, become smaller, reducing       effective legibility and inducing eyestrain and backstrain (from leaning       forward, often unconsciously). Personalization of software to compensate       (make things bigger) may or may not be adequate.              > The other is to set the refresh rate to 60 Hz and no more. LCDs       > tend not to like rates any higher at all.              Most LCDs support all VESA modes. Among them are usually 75 in addition to       60, at least for 1024x768 and lower. Whether there's any user benefit to       using 75 instead of 60 is another matter. I've never been able to detect any.       --        "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant       words are persuasive."
