I was going to buy a new monitor, but......

Liti

now I am just confused as hell.

 

The monitor I was thinking is BenQ XL2411Z 24''. The only problem I have is that I have no idea can my computer even make any use of it. If I have understood correctly, the real thing that matters here is my graphics card. I have a card called AMD Radeon HD 7800 Series. What I would like to ask is can I get good frames from that monitor at all with this one? I am also aware that this monitor has some kind of 3D mode (and I am pretty sure that it won't work with the graphic card I have at the moment), but I am not going to use that at the moment, so it really doesn't matter.

It will work but you will need to get almost the same fps in games as your refresh rate so keep that in mind.

To make use of it [144Hz], you'd need to be running at over 60 frames per second, which I doubt you'd be able to do in newer games with a 7850/7870 unless you want to turn the details down a lot.

On older games, it should run fine. the newest games won't run at over 60fps. I'd still buy the monitor.

Games that I play are mainly CS GO, Starcraft 2, Heartstone and games like that. I don't really play that much these newer titles. This monitor really seems excellent one, so I really would like to buy it :D

 

Is there some way that I can check what kinds of fps I get in games I play???

Yes, fraps measures your fps but there are other bettter software u can use. Im using geforce experience but cant recommend that since u have AMD gpu.

But as far as CS:GO goes u will always be above 100fps so u will totally take an advantagr of the extra refresh rate. And at some point u will upgrade the gpu. GPUs come and go but monitors are often kept for lifetime of one-two GPUs :)

Yeah I tried fraps when I played couple of rounds with bots and I constantly had something like 250 frames in CS GO. I don't know will fps be different when you are playing with real people, but I guess it will be at least that 200 also at those points.

For CS:GO only u can use "net_graph 1" in console and it will show u the most accurate fps.

Your GPU is powerfuk enough to keep it above 144hz.
