What is the minimum refresh rate I should look for when looking for a monitor? I plan on doing some gaming in 1440p. I'm new at this, any help is appreciated.

60

And that's rock bottom, bare minimum mind you.

>>340327406
Is it still good though? I only aim to run games at 60fps

Refresh rate isnt what you think it is.

Do physical stores even sell flat screen monitors with less than 60Hz? I've never seen one less than 59.

Refresh rate, just like tickrate, hitbox issues etc are mostly a meme, they only start being really important at high level play and people who whine about them are usually shitters trying to rationalize being bad. Unless you are already pretty good at a game don't believe that a 144hz will make any difference, it won't.

It's like some scrawny nerd who comes last in a race by half a minute and says it's because he doesn't have running shoes.

Do you want to save money? If you don't, just buy a 144hz monitor. You can play games on the incredible framerates of 30, 60, and even 120fps!
>>
>>340328303
Pretty sure getting shot through walls and around corners affects regular online play you shitposter.
Stop trying to defend Overshit.
>>
>>340327714
then you've pretty much got what you want

alternatively, if you want to run higher fps, go to a store and look at different monitors

>>340328303
it's mostly just autistic preference, 2bh
it's like accurate emulation or running linux as a desktop OS
realistically, most people won't care about a lot of shit for why you would, but those that do can't go without
>>
>>340327115
There is no point in going over 60 if you're going 1440 you dumb idiot
Good luck reaching over 60 on new titles but as you're probably a dumb fps or mobafag just go 1080 120+

How about you lick my penis?

You don't need to hit 144FPS to use a 144hz monitor.

Higher refresh rates and frames are a noticable visual difference and is most certainly not a meme you fucking retard

>>340328303
>t. I have never played on a 144Hz monitor at 144fps

there's no going back
it's so fucking smooth

Is the acer GN246HL a good 144hz monitor?
this is just a convenient thread for me to ask since I'm ordering all my pc parts tomorrow

I'm glad this casual game is taking all the weebs from every fps.

This is 100% correct, I fucking hate seeing retards whining about how 144hz+ is a meme because you can't reach that in demanding games with current GPU's. For one, it's stupid because some games are optimized way better and at higher resolutions you can afford to turn down settings to achieve a higher framerate, not to mention older games. Secondly, once you hit even 75fps you can see an noticeable improvement over 60fps and if your monitor caps out at 60hz you'll never see this. There is no reason for someone playing on PC in THE CURRENT YEAR to have a 60hz refresh rate monitor unless they're very poor.
