I can definitely tell there's a difference at 120fps. But going from 30 to 60 is like witnessing the birth of your firstborn child. 60 to 120 is like finding out they gave you a free extra chicken wing. Outside of a game like overwatch (with mouse) I've never really cared much about FPS above 60. 120 is nice but I don't think there's ever going to be a time when I boot a game and go "gross it's only 60fps". |
Yeah, that mouse thing is what is crucial. Sure, high refresh rates also look nice, but it is mouse responsiveness that is the key.
Back in days, in CRT era, there were quite a few (at least from my memory) monitors that could push 100+ Hz, even as back as late 90s/early 00s, so when LCDs replaced them, that 60Hz limit felt awful and it was quite usual to play with vsync off, which teared the picture up and made it look worse, but made mouse as responsive as it used to be with CRTs.
I currently run 1440p/144Hz VRR monitor, but whenever I play with gamepad I cap the game to 60fps...honestly, there is no reason to push for more, if I can push visuals higher due to lower frame rate. But, whenever I game with mouse, yeah, fuck visuals, give me all those Hertz.
