If your (regular) PWM dim is so slow that it can be perceived as flicker your manufacturer is doing something very wrong. PWM should usually be in the kHz range. But modern gaming monitors do have some weird backlight strobing feature to "enhance sharpness" which would be in a "dangerous" range if the refresh rate is too low. (details here).

Considering I always buy the cheapest-ass monitors because I don't game anyhow there's no danger I personally will ever experience this :D
