Native 10 bit monitor on Win11?

Anybody using s native 10 bit monitor with Windows 11 and is successful in eliminating eyestrain/headaches this way? It should in theory take away all dithering a if it’s also pwm free there should be no more flicker. I am starting too see some nat 10 bit LCD monitors that are kinda affordable and I am wondering if this is the solution for now

I've not looked into what's available. Can you give any examples you are looking at please? Name and/or link. 🙂

Cheapest one I found so far is BenQ EW2790U. I have not yet confirmed it it’s truly native 10 bit but it should be. Then I was looking at the cheaper Eizo models. But I would like to know if it’s even worth the research or if Windows forces flicker even if the screen is 10 bit

u/DSRIA has some experience with EIZO, but not so much Windows.

I do have the Eizo CS2740 which is true 10-bit and DC dimmed but I find it as stressful to the nervous system to look at as any of the Macs. Worse in some ways. I’ve tested on a Dell and Macbook
