I'll admit I feel the difference more on my work machine (i5-2400, Windows 7) than my home workstations (i5-6500, Antergos Linux and Slackware Linux). It's definitely there though. Slack is another offender; we use it at work and our few remaining Core 2 machines and AMD A10 machines are brought to their knees with the Slack Electron app. Those users tend to launch it in a Chrome or Firefox window and leave that running. I can also pick up on different refresh rates, and I was extremely sensitive to it on CRTs back in the 90s and early 2000s. I had to run at least 75Hz on a CRT or I'd have too much "shimmy" in the image and would get a headache in a few minutes of work. 60Hz on an LCD doesn't typically bother me unless its grey-to-grey response time is poor, and produces ghosting. Even with that I don't seem to get headaches from LCDs.
