    It’s extremely easy to tell the difference. I can’t tell you what’s wrong with their experiment as I don’t know exactly what they did, but they clearly fucked it. If you’re looking at a static image, you can’t differentiate 240Hz from 30Hz. You need a test that actually demonstrates the difference.

      I have yet to draw the comparison in person (only have a 165Hz), but I mean, every time you double the FPS, the benefit of doubling them again halves. Going from 120 to 240 to 480 Hz is going from 8 to 4 to 2 ms in terms of frametime.

      A 4 ms difference in delay might be somewhat noticeable, if you have a very well running game and amazing reflexes. Anything beyond 240 is marketing bs / e-sport ‘I need every ms I can get’.
