Some attribute the lighting of the room as a contributing factor to performance. This is especially true for fast-moving games that have a high refresh rate and many frames. But it is the opposite when it comes to slower games that require strategy over reflex. A lower lighting atmosphere will provide a more relaxing environment and put less stress on our eyes. This will allow your mind to focus more on the game’s strategy rather on trying to squint to see well.
