Hi folks If anyone is still here can they recommend a good monitor in 2025? My current one is about 8 years old and I’m now noticing some eye strain. Unsure if it is ageing or the monitor but I am prepared to get a replacement as I am sure the technology is better these days. Budget up to $1000 approx. Mainly used for dev work and I am a single monitor guy. Hard to tell what’s ok in the stores or online as there are so many choices. Thanks Tom
