Say hello to the super-speedy 27-inch UltraGear GX7.

I wonder how many people can even tell the difference between 144Hz and 480Hz apart from the extra heat and screaming GPU fans.
Literally zero, but they'll constantly tell you how amazing the difference is.
It's actually very simple, just activate the FPS counter and it will display the frame rate for you. (/s)
I've got the 45" ultrawide 240hz OLED that LG make. That's plenty fast enough.
I can’t run most games much above 100Hz with a 3090.
I definitely can’t tell the difference for anything above 120hz or so, but I recall reading an article about counter strike several years ago, which showed that pro players can see an increase in performance with higher refresh rates up to about 300 or 350 hz (as long as you have the fps to match it, lol).
At that point, was it really the rendering speed, or just the finer game engine granularity that made a difference?
What's the point if the human eye can't see beyond 30fps?
That's not entirely correct. Have you tried using a 60hz and 165hz monitor? The difference is not slight.
Number go up
presenting that human eye with the most up to date graphical developments provide a (however slight but still measurable) performance edge over slower refresh rates.
