Should I upgrade my GTX 760 to an r9 380x or should I get a 144hz monitor?
I am very poor so it can't be both unfortunately.

Buying a 144hz without a high end video card is a waste of money
Even my 970 cannot play games outside of shit like CSGO, Dota 2, and non AAA graphics games at 144fps+
Unless you want to pay $250 for a low latency monitor because muh competitive gaming, then no.

The 144hz monitor would be predominantly for CS:GO and CoD4, and maybe some fast-paced FPS games like Quake on occasion.
>>335750724
definitely high refresh over gpu power.

So at 144hz you get chased by more phantom A10s?

Then sure, but make 100% sure you can get consistant over 144fps on those games with your current card otherwise it will look bad. Also get something with low latency.
Wait for Polaris 10 in May/June
The military is going to replace that a10 with the F-35.

get a 120hz CRT monitor
Here's a related question: 120hz or 144hz monitor?
How many refresh display modes do they tend to have anyways? Anything like the good ol' days of CRTs where you could set any interval of 5 between 50 and 100?
144hz with adaptive sync of some kind or you're wasting money
adaptive sync is mandatory if you game
The difference between a 760 and 380x isn't that significant is it? Certainly not enough to justify $200.

this is fucking stupid, you shouldn't play shit that require low latency and precision at very high fps.
after 60FPS, real motion blur appear and you will loose a huge advantage. that's why rythm games and shit like quake are played mainly on 60FPS. except if you're doing something so fast that you need more than 60 images per second,so if you're a japanese/korean rythm game player, go ahead.
144hz is nice because it feels real, but you'll be loosing a lot of detail in the process, simply because your brain can't process that much images.

CRT monitors are not the same as LED's or whatever, and pretty much any pro gamer who talks about 60hz vs 144hz says that 144hz is a significant improvement.

>that's why rythm games and shit like quake are played mainly on 60FPS
you have no idea what you are talking about
>>335751945
hahaha what are you talking about you madman
>what is blur reduction
>what is over two times the amount of frames being displayed a second
Anon try 120/144hz monitors one day you will not regret it
>>335751629
get one supported by lightboost and you will not reget it.

A 144hz monitor is stupid with a 760, so upgrade the GPU instead.
