Hello All,
I am in the market for a new PC monitor! Right now I am gaming with an LG 2560x1080 @60 Hz IPS panel and I love it.
I am curious about something, though. I understand that my 60 Hz monitor will give me 60 frames per second and nothing more, and I understand that a 144 Hz monitor will give me 144 frames per second and nothing more. I am under the impression that a 60 Hz monitor will be equal to that of a 17(ish) millisecond response time monitor. If this is the case, then if I buy a monitor with an 8 ms response time, will I be looking at a monitor that will give me something like 120 frames per second? What about a 4 ms response time, how many frames per second will my eyes actually be seeing? Sometimes I see monitors listed with a response time and a refresh rate, is there anything I need to keep in mind in regards to the two? Any input would be greatly appreciated, thank you!
