| CGI-Quality said: I noticed an instant smoothness with my mouse when upgrading from a 60Hz CRT to a 120Hz, LED, 3D monitor. Just feels so much better, and games, believe it or not (ignore the naysayers), you can tell the difference between 60fps and 120. |
Agreed. Back in the days of CRT monitors I couldn't stand any setting below 90hz.
With LCD you don't have the problem of flicker anymore but I hope to upgrade to a tv or projector some day that accepts a 120hz signal. Time for HDMI 2.0, get rid of motion blur.
To the op, as for now 120hz tv screens are pointless for gaming. HDMI 1.4 does not support 120hz, motion flow will only introduce lag. It uses the previous frame or even last 2 frames to calculate intermediate frames. So in the worst case scenario you are watching what happened 3 frames ago. Besides that it will aggravate screen tearing and dips in frame rate.
For movies it will smear out the motion blurred source image, replacing judder with a softer soap opera look.
