Well, the eyes are 57 and have stared at way too many welding arcs.  I don't
know what kind of graphics card (too lazy to look) this Dell has in it, but
I do not see any hint of flicker even at the highest resolution.  I just
can't get over how easy it is to see everything now.  The old monitor gave
up so slowly that I became accustomed to the rotten image and didn't know
how bad it was until I saw this new one.  Desperately dodging the pun, its
really an eye-opener!
