Unless, of course, the refresh rate is too low... (for example, I can only read on my LCD monitor at the default 60MHz for a few minutes at a time before the eyestrain starts showing up - a problem which goes away when I go up to 75MHz; annoying 'cos this monitor's highest rez, 1440x900, can only be used at 60MHz
