Only fans here! Quick questions about the refresh rate.
I noticed a change in how it feels since switching to 144Hz. At 60Hz it’s really unpleasant, and I’m not sure I can handle anything below 120Hz anymore.
If you have funds, aim for 144hz but I can still climb LEM rank with a 60hz monitor. This works for me too, and my friends who are higher rank also do it. The MM server runs at 64tick, which doesn’t give much extra edge on official servers. Still, I feel like I can land a win easily.
It really does have a noticeable impact. I used Gold Nova 4 for a while and upgraded to the benQ XL2411Z (144hz), which pushed me up four ranks within a month. It might just be a placebo, but I definitely felt the change. I’m stuck in LE, though—maybe a gaming chair would help take it further.
Yes, you're referring to 144Hz IPS displays. The IPS technology supports fast refresh rates, making it a relevant consideration.
It's not just a pointless discussion, and I understand there are many 144Hz monitors available. However, those screens aren't particularly affordable. If I had to pick between IPS and 144Hz TN, I'd definitely prefer IPS over 144Hz.
