Title says it all (i have turned on 165hz on settings). Its a cheap monitor, do some 165hz monitors not truly give you that experience? Or are my eyes fucked

    It should be wildly obvious just moving your mouse across the screen. Maybe your graphics adapter has an issue and isn’t properly setting the mode?

      Ah I have the same problem with my laptop. It is set to 144hz but I don’t see any difference with the external 60hz monitor. I guess I’m genetically not built for eSports.

        If you do quick circles with the cursor do you not see more frames of the mouse on the high refresh rate monitor?

          If you have to do that sort of thing just to see the difference, I don’t think the difference is going to matter to you.

            How else would you test the difference? By looking at a still picture?

            The difference matters very much in high speed video games and this is the most basic of ways to test it.

              I’m talking about whether or not they would care about a distance that you couldn’t just see while using it and had to do something specific to test for.
