Was wondering is 120hz Constant or 165hz not Constant is better

OBAnniihlate · April 19

I play Apex Legends and have my screen refresh set at 165hz but in game my fps sometimes goes down and later into the game usually is worse. So was wondering is it better to make my screens refresh rate lower like 140 or something so fps would be higher than my refresh rate? If it makes a difference I have VRR enabled in AMD software. Also if it's better to be at 140 should I cap my fps at or around 140 so frame times are better?

Nope high refresh rate is better regardless, itll just keep the screen updated faster so you have more chance to see each frame in realtime vs a few microsecond delay
