intel uhd 630 eyestrain

Hi, I have this old dell optiplex micro 3070 (Intel® Core™ i5-9500T Processor 9M Cache, up to 3.70 GHz UHD Graphics 630) and wanted to set it up for my kid (not for gaming - he needs it for school: drawing, some photo editing and the rest).

As I was transferring data to it, I experienced some glitches (looked like minecraft-style dancing pixels on the screen and got 2 errors 18a and 18b).

I talked to ai a bit to see what it suggested and it pointed to both drivers and bios being ancient - dell site confirmed critical updates for my specific model, so I updated the GD, chipset and bios.
It was then that I started working on the pc that I realised my eyes hurt like hell (I don't know if the issue was pre-update, though).

The picture looks fine - clear, both on 4k display and lenovo monitor with lower res. I tried playing with hdmi cables, using 1.4, 2.0 and then tried DP for Lenovo monitor. No difference.
Played with brightness and contrast enhancement in IGCC, and it does make the screen less abrasive for the eyes. (eyestrain onset in just a matter of minutes)

Has anyone experienced anything similar? Any ideas? (I've been using 4k display on another pc for years - without any issues)

Thanks!
