Higher refresh rate or higher graphics

[Bmjskater]

Which do you think is more important?

[Fluffinator]

Why not have both? and balance it.

[_ASSASSIN_]

When I'll play witcher 3- highest graphics

when I play CS:GO- Highest framerate

all depends on the game I play really.

Higher Refresh Rate

YOU GET A DIFFERENT EXPERIENCE!

That's my plan anyway

SLI my 780 and get a 1080p 144Hz Monitor

[SleathX1]

BOTH!!

 

But to really answer your question, it does depend on the game style.

 

Racing/FPS - High Framerate.

Simulation/Eye candy/almost anything else - Ultra settings.

Honestly IMO the best "Gaming" monitor to speak would be the http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824009769&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=Because yougot that 1440p for games like GTA V Wither 3 Ect. But you also have that amazing 144hz 1 MS response times for CS:GO and ect... For $500 its really nice. Also to "Resolve" The orange thing plasti dip the stand (Unless you got a wall mount or something) and put some plastic and stuff over the monitor, Get a spray bottle of water to make sure paint DOES NOT hit the monitor and you could sprak paint it I guess.

As @_ASSASSIN_ said, it depends on the game. Typically more graphics since I usually prefer 30fps

If you're talking monitors, I'd go for a 60hz IPS or 60hz 1440p over a 120hz TN or 120hz 1080p any day.

Refresh Rate.

I will recommend it even if you arent doing gaming.,

The Experiance in WIndows beats all that

[mrswagbhinav]

Balance it so you get at least 50 fps.

[SkilledRebuilds]

Set Windows to use 24-30hz refresh for that epicly glorious cinematic Windows mouse movement experience..

 

 

/I prefer higher refresh moreso than higher fidelity, but if I can have both in my games, I will.

Effect Details in CSGO Make a Difference

Which do you think is more important?

Simple as this, Fast paced games such as; CS:GO, DiRT Rally, Project Cars, higher refresh rate is recommended due to much faster motion of the player, cars, and environment

Slower paced games such as; Arma 3, Witcher, Divinity, higher detail is recommended due to slower camera, player, and environment movements

[shirokado]

Your goal should be to get a constant 100+fps before raising up graphics. The difference between 144hz and 60hz is huge.

When I'm over over 60 fps, I'll turn up the graphics. I don't need the extra frames beyond that point

Well isn't that something you do beforehand, PUMP THE SETTINGS TO MAX!

Also isn't that what Vsync is for?
