I've always wondered why everybody would buy "monitors" for computer use. Isn't it the same thing as a television screen? Back then TVs used to take different inputs but everything is digital now.
That checkerboard effect is certainly interesting. Someone somewhere is going to be nostalgic about this artifact someday, maybe they'll even make a shader to emulate it. I wonder what causes it and why it disappears in game mode.

All I see is paying customers asking for support.

That's weird since nvidia's open source driver has an implementation.
TVs generally have more input lag, poorer color fidelity, and except at the high end like 8k the pixel size is often inappropriate for viewing close up.
There's less of a gulf now than in the past, but TVs are generally made for media watching at a distance.
