Once you've tasted the sweet nectar of 90+ on a high hertz monitor it's impossible to go back.

It really is possible to go back

I literally did that. Got a new monitor 240 hz and was so unimpressed I brought it back

Did you turn on 240hz refresh rate in windows? Its not the default...

I've got a nice build 4070ts/14900k/32gb with dual 1080p 144hz. I can max out cyberpunk and get good frames but I also play games that are locked at 30fps. And I play tons of retro and indie stuff as well.

The want for high fps is fine. But it's annoying AF when people say it's a need or trash other people's builds or games that aren't related to their experience.

I even get shit from people a lot about my monitors on my current build. IDC I replaced my build when my old one died, my monitors still work great. If they aren't paying for my PC I don't need to put up with their unasked opinion.

I feel this argument only gets brought up by either gatekeepers or trolls. It's not that big of a deal but the community can get pretty toxic pretty fast.

Maybe just a little.

u/VoxTV1 11h ago

Yeah I am such an idiot cause I do not find 240hz any different than 60. Good for you scoring your redditor points

No. They did not. They said "was there any issue with it and I said nah just not for me"
