I just ordered a 144hz monitor. Are they worth it or just a meme?

If you don't play vidya regularly they're def not worth it.

how about no
good job frog
Youre one of them speak first think later guys
>>54696438
Congratulations
Now you'll never be able to go back to 60Hz.
Are you getting a 1080 to complement that?
>>54696438
the eye cant see beyond 24 fps, and the response time of an average person is 120ms
you literally are wasting money
If you're not good at fps games then you wasted your money. I know sponsored players in many games that only play with 60hz and still play at the top level. 144hz doesn't make you better, it's just more comfortable.
Ins from Quake used a ball mouse for years before zowie sent him a free mouse. He still doesn't use a mousepad and has the cheapest goddamn set up in the world and he plays at the top level of Quake.
To be honest if you play fps (read: counter strike) and are decent at the game, it will improve your performance.

I only have a i5 4670k and GTX 770

It's so fucking smooth you won't believe it anon. But I'm thinking about replacing it because the color accuracy and viewing angles are shit tier. And the darkness levels are also pretty disgusting. It's going to take time to get used to thought
>go to Costco
>120hz 4k 50" TVs are like $500-$600 dollars
>60hz 1440p monitors still cost half of that or more despite being a fraction of the size and probably having cheaper built in speakers
Why the fuck is it taking so long for monitor prices to come down? I mean fuck, you can get 1440p phones for not much more than the cost of 1440p monitors. Is it because the demand for 1080p monitors is still relatively high?
>>54696438
Takes getting used to if you came from consoles, kind of gives me motion sickness it's so smooth
>>54697801
24fps is the lowest frequency we can see frames without seeing transition or studder. faggot.
It's a meme if it doesn't have adaptive sync
>>54697801
Why even get 1080p the human brain cant process more than 360p anyways
>>54698056
I thought ~18fps was when the human brain starts interpreting it as motion and not a slideshow, and 24fps was just the standard chosen during the early days of film?
>>54697801
my favourite meme :^)
>>54696438
Just a meme.
Flicker isn't an issue when it comes to LCD tech. So that only leaves framerates, and 60 fps is quite good enough. Resolution is more important.
>>54697827
This to stone degree I've seen people and personally had gotten at fps games with a 144hz you will be able to hit more shots but it won't matter if you're shit. Use it to your advantage and git gud.
>>54696438
up to you i enjoyed 100hz back in the day but it wasnt worth the premium to make the jump to 144hz
>>54698030
>Why the fuck is it taking so long for monitor prices to come down?
Idiots paying top dollar for 'gaming' shit
>>54696438
if you play 1080p yes, dont expect 144fps at 2k or 4k anytime soon. unless you play old shit
>>54696438
You literally paid for a placebo effect.
Just pray it actually works.
>>54698406
you sound jealous
>>54698094
>using the smiley with a carat nose
I owned a 144 Hz monitor for a year or so.
They're good but after going back to 60 Hz I really don't think they're worth it. I play fine with 60 Hz. 144 obviously looks a thousand times better, but it's not like it actually improves your gameplay or anything.
>>54698030
A combo of smaller panels being more expensive to produce and retards that keep buying them at this price keeping the price up.
>>54698545
But 1440p at ~23" or bigger still doesn't approach the pixel densities than mobile devices have had for years now. It can't cost *that* much. I blame the demand for 1080p monitors still being high keeping the prices of anything better high as well.
144hz owner here, 75hz is literally enough and gets you decent IPS panel as well for a reasonable price
144hz is just pure luxury and you're only benefiting from low fidelity games and SVP
I just recently got a asus mg279q for 340€. i'd never have spend 600€ for this shit
>>54696438
one thing for sure, you can't go to 60hz desktop after it
too smooth
>>54698653
>mg279q for 340€
how?
>>54698738
from mindfactory online retail. i saw one for 330€ a week later on amazon warehouse deal though
>>54698753
did you get lucky with panel? mine is ideal - no bleed, how is yours?
I just don't get why the heck would they sell it for so low. Without defects it is a solid screen.
>>54698780
no dead pixels, just minor lightbleed spots on all sides which are typical for ips in my experience but they are not visible unless the screen is completely black
>>54698796
don't forget to switch desktop to 144hz
>>54698808
i wouldn't really tell anyone on /g/ about that, so they can find out after 2 years and see what opportunity they have missed and how dumb they must feel about it
i also extended the freesync range from 57 to 144hz
>>54698808
Yeah, this fucked with me for a Day.
I got a 144Hz monitor for mainly Cs Go (Not for the competitive bullwhip... Ze all the way baby). It's really hard to determine the worthiness (It literally cost twice as a basic Ips) but I'm happy with it
