What's the value of testing 240fps in a game where fast motion isn't typical? If Linus needed a clearer answer, he should have used a much faster game with continuous action, such as Quake. Gather Rapha, Paradoks, Cooller, Garpy, and K1llsen to run the tests. Higher FPS becomes more obvious and beneficial mainly in quicker, fast-paced shooters like Quake, while simpler games with hit-screen weapons are less ideal for detailed testing. Don't fall for the beginner trap of using low-end titles like CS.

It might be that CS is among the top-rated FPS games currently, which could explain why players are interested in seeing it.

Except for the fact that no one plays Quake, CSGO stands out as a highly popular game that many people are interested in with high refresh rates.

But conducting such a test is a weak approach. To truly demonstrate the impact, a game with players who benefit significantly more from upgrading to 240 would be better. Additionally, Quake demands quicker reflexes compared to CS.

Overwatch would make a great test. If you want to battle a genji or tracer, I've discovered 240hz is quite useful.

Still not quite as quick but a much improved contemporary alternative compared to CS.

It might not be as quick, but it's a well-known game that will attract many players. I also think it's amusing when folks claim it doesn't matter since I moved from platinum to masters after changing to a 240hz.

Meh, CounterStrike marked the beginning of the decline of design in the FPS genre.

Create a video demonstrating scientifically supporting the idea that Quake provides players with a notable edge, just as you intended.
