Brace yourself: dodgy infographics trying to convince you that super high refresh rates make a difference are coming! (I miss got, when it was good).
There are 12 frames on screen for every one you can perceive! I totally agree that having a few extra frames is helpful, but this is getting like men's razors now, at some point you do get diminishing returns. You've given up resolution and image quality for a 4ms frame time when you can't perceive much less than 40ms (total time not latency).
High refresh rates do make a massive difference in competitive gaming, and the jump from 60-144hz is rather large and obvious...if your graphics card can keep up.
The leap from 144-200hz though is much less noticeable, and again up to 240hz....I can imagine that diminishing returns will continue and the leap to 280hz isn't really going to make much difference. I can do 200hz on my monitor and hit the required FPS in CS:GO, and I cannot tell the difference once I get above 144hz....maybe some people can, but I am not convinced.
Combine that with pretty poor specs all round and a relatively high price for the specs and I think China can keep this one to themselves :)
LTT and Jayz2cents have done some really interesting tests on HRFR monitors, worth a look if you are interested in the difference it makes.

Getting to 480Hz would bring LCD's on par to CRT's we are still quite a number of years away from catching up to what we once had.
Back in the day when people i knew was on LCD screens, and i was still on my CRT.
Well i had a hard time looking at their BS screens as i was used to +200 FPS / +200 Hz, i had the same problems with early LCD TVs as i was looking at my CRT screen for most of the day.
It is only lately i have been able to digest LCD screens at 144 Hz, so lucky my CRT lasted as long as it did.
But yes, when it died i did look for a new CRT, but really it was not really happening for those by then.

We're still in the Stone Age regarding displays, perhaps.
While I somewhat miss my old 21" Sony CRT, I definitely don't miss its size and weight or the heat it produced. I can live with 144 Hz until something above 300 Hz comes along (as well as a graphics card capable of producing those frame rates in games).Quote:
