600fps at 600Hz is impossible. You would need like 64-way SLI with Nvidia 92381741985643879019's or something stupid like that.

600Hz is all marketing. Its not real refresh rate

600 Hz is 600 Hz. However, I am 99% sure that his TV is not advertised as JUST 600 Hz. I've heard from a guy, that if there are 3 letters after Hz, then it's not true 600 Hz, but just 50-100 Hz mirrored a lot.

So no, it's probably not a 600 Hz TV ;)

It's the TV "faking the frames" (interpolation) it's probably only a 60-120hz panel

No at 1080p it can do 120hz

Isn't that if you have 1.4a or 1.4b sockets?

I'm not really sure as I NEVER use HDMI but I know one of them can.

This http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-33199_7-57598032-221/fake-refresh-rates-is-your-tv-really-120hz/

and this http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-33199_7-57548118-221/what-is-600hz/

 

TLDR:

 

As we discussed in "What is refresh rate?," LCDs use a higher-than-normal refresh rate to combat motion blur. Plasmas, by how they work, don't have an issue with motion blur. The 600Hz claim by all the current plasma TV manufacturers has to do with how the TVs create an image, but is not 600 images per second.

So yes, 600Hz is a marketing term. However, because plasmas don't require faster refresh rates to produce a clear, sharp image, and this is technically how they work, it's fair to give Panasonic, LG, and Samsung a pass...for this one.

Plasma and LCD Refresh Rates are not comparable. A 600Hz TV will typically display a very dim version of every frame 10 times, our brain sees the 10 dim frames as one bright one. It is not displaying 600 different frames per second but 60 frames 10 times each.

How exactly are you gonna test this with a 600fps camera or something

Not with older games.  Some people can play 300fps in Half Life 2 on a single Titan.  Double that up, and it should easily be able to do 600fps. 

 

The problem is a display that can display 600fps natively, in full, with no interpolation and with no frame dropping.  Almost no displays can natively do that yet, only a few vendors such as vpixx.com has a 500fps @ 500Hz capable projector for vision science researchers, but it's monochrome.

Inexpensive high speed cameras (low-resolution in high speed mode) are available with 1000fps, 1200fps, etc.  

Canon 7D, Casio EX-FC200S, Casio EX-F1, Fuji HS10, Nikon 1 J1, Casio EX-ZR200, and a few others.

 

The cheapest one is the Casio EX-FC200S, less than $200 off eBay.  Very low-rez at 1000fps (224x64), but enough resolution to prove that it's not producing 600 unique frames per second.

"600Hz" TVs are plasma TVs which operate totally differently than LCD.  "Hz" is a generic unit for cycles per second, and in plasma TVs, 600Hz refers to something completely different than the number of images per second as it would with an LCD, in plasmas it has to do with the voltage cycling through the noble gases in the display (the voltage lights up the gases, which is how plasma TVs work).

My question is how are you going to measure it? Even if a game can run at 600 fps I don't see how you'll determine the actual fps of the monitor.

 

 

 

but enough resolution to prove that it's not producing 600 unique frames per second. 

But it doesn't have to produce 600 unique frames, if it produces 600 frames of the exact image then it's still 600 fps
