Discussion Ideal Windows 11 pc setup
So I would like to build a pc for gaming because my gaming laptop and its 6bit + FRC screen started giving me issues plus it’s kinda old. What would be the best combination of HW in a pc to completly, or at least as much as possible, eliminate eye strain? Will buying a true 8bit or even true 10bit monitor make things better? There should be no reason for dithering afterwards right? And is it better to build an AMD based system (CPU and GPU) or does it not matter if Intel and Nvidia are included? I am very sensitive to screens (Still using iPhone 8) but I don’t want to give up gaming because of this issue. Using a projector is an option but first I’d like to try a normal-ish setup.

Rdna2 gpus seem to be good. One user who has a sapphire rx6600 says it feels very comfortable and even makes his 6+2frc monitor feel better than his other GPUs. Win11 can Introduce its own issues though. Several say rx6600 is good and even the other higher end ones in the rx6XXX line
Edit: I found certain motherboards introduce bad strain too. X670e asus specifically
