    1 Hz. If you run a monitor at almost the same frequency as your power, and you have flourescent lights, you could get a headache. If you're epileptic, it could trigger a siezure.

    Actually, since refresh rates aren't high precision, there's no practical difference in a 1 Hz "difference". Your 59 Hz monitor might actually be running at a 61 Hz refresh rate.
    The most difficult part of developing a program is understanding the problem.
    The second most difficult part is deciding how you're going to solve the problem.
    Actually writing the program (translating your solution into some computer language) is the easiest part.

    Here is another question.

    What can be caused having two different moniter refreshing rates on two monitors?

    I doubt it. Each monitor is running independent of the other one. I've been running this way for a few years already, and the computer is turned on 24/7.

    May be it is related with the screen resolution?
