144hz Makes You a BETTER Gamer - 60hz vs 144hz real-world benefits, FPS results, CRT Experiences

My Journey to High Refresh Rate Gaming

I've always been fascinated by gaming and technology, but I didn't really dig into why until I was older. When we moved to the first-gen LCDs that came with our Windows Vista and later computers, which were 10:5x4 1024x768, things started to get a bit slower. We then started getting the 1366x768 weird resolution monitors that had slow input latency in the first place. CRTs, on the other hand, had zero input lag ever and 60Hz.

As I started playing more games like Combat Arms, Halo, Call of Duty, and others, I felt like things just didn't feel good. I got really frustrated, especially with mouse and keyboard games. I thought to myself, "I'm just not good at this." But then it hit me - the 60Hz was the problem. Coming back to my CRTs, which had high refresh rates, made a huge difference in how I experienced gaming. I enjoyed playing on them and noticed that I could make shots that I couldn't before.

Now, when I'm playing games on modern computers with production monitors that have low input latency, it's still not the same as using a CRT. However, after switching to 144Hz monitors for my gaming setup, I've experienced something amazing - my aim is so much better. I can hit shots that I couldn't before, and it feels incredible.

The Difference Between High Refresh Rate and Resolution

For those who might be wondering, high refresh rates (like 60Hz or higher) refer to how many times the screen updates per second. Higher refresh rates provide a smoother experience, especially for fast-paced games like shooters and first-person shooters. On the other hand, resolution refers to the number of pixels displayed on the screen.

While resolution is still important, I believe that high refresh rates make a bigger impact on gaming performance than resolution does. If you're already decent at gaming, a 144Hz monitor can take your gameplay to the next level. In fact, I've noticed that running games at higher frame rates (like 200 or 300 frames per second) makes all the difference.

The Impact of High Refresh Rate Monitors on Gaming

If you're in a position where you can upgrade your gaming setup with a high refresh rate monitor, I highly recommend it. For general desktop use, a lower resolution monitor might be sufficient, but if you're building a dedicated gaming setup, a 144Hz monitor is worth considering.

Keep in mind that modern graphics cards don't always come with analog pins required for true VGA signals to get the high refresh rate out. This means that you'll need adapters or specific hardware to take advantage of higher refresh rates.

My Experience with High Refresh Rate Monitors

I recently purchased a 144Hz monitor, specifically for a sponsored project that allowed me to test its capabilities. The monitor has HDMI 2.0, which enables it to run directly into the Elgato HD or 4K60 Pro capture card. This means I can capture and stream high-quality content at 1080p or 144p.

While this monitor isn't the best available, it was a great option for my specific needs. The price is reasonable, and the features make it perfect for capturing high-quality footage.

In conclusion, I want to reiterate that if you're building a gaming setup with budget restrictions, don't get discouraged by high refresh rates. A lower resolution monitor (like 1080p or 1440p) paired with a high refresh rate can still provide an amazing gaming experience.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enone of my honestly least favorite memes is making fun of gaming branded products as not actually making you better at a game gaming grips on your thumb sticks gaming chairs gaming glasses gaming drinks if you somehow equate a higher risk of cancer as being better at games and thankfully as a result a lot of companies have stopped actually using that sort of branding that they would make you better at a game however one product specifically that benefits gaming most that i feel undersells this value is right here 144 hertz or other high refresh displays now this is going to sound weird because i'm kind of late to the party in terms of talking about this stuff and a lot of people are high refresh rate or die but i am actually surprised to have learned that high refresh rate gaming can truly make you better at the games you're playing especially if there's something very you know twitchy response oriented like shooters and given my history with high refresh rate crts i thought this would be interesting to talk about my modern gaming that being you know from 2007 onward i have spent my time gaming on 60 hertz displays those are what have been most commonly available that's what my tvs are i mean there's the 120 hertz but they're not actually an actual 120 hertz refresh rate and i quickly made the jump upward towards 4k which is what i use for my main production machines because i haven't had the ability to use separate gaming and editing setups until my new apartment here where i have a crazy awesome megadesk 3.0 are coming soon where i get to have separate setups so for the past few weeks i've been gaming pretty heavily on this monitor right here this is the bin q zoe 27 oh i'm gonna mess it up now it is the xl2730 which is a 27 inch 1440p 144 hertz one millisecond g2g response time monitor now for its price of about 500 it's honestly all right it's not the greatest monitor in the world it's not ips it has a kind of panel there's no speakers on it so if you want just a quick dirty easy sound output on it it doesn't have it the headphone out when i run it to my mixer is very weak and just kind of lacking compared to other monitors that i've used but it has a swivel tilt rotate height adjustable stand it gets nice and bright and sharp and can go up to 144 hertz for 1440p which is pretty cool i've played quite a lot of shooters there over the past few weeks battlefields call of duty's overwatch pub g iron sight i've played a lot of different games on it and i started to notice a trend where i'm actually landing more shots now before i touch on that if you're unaware of what high refresh rate gaming is or what 144 hertz possibly means i mentioned before most standard monitors are 60 hertz which means that they update 60 times per second and that's why there's an issue if you're running games below 60 frames per second you know there's a there's not a sync between what your monitor is spitting out and what your game sending it and so on and so high refresh takes that to another level and sends more updates to the screen and therefore to your eyes than 60. before if you only had a 60hz display and you were running a game at higher frames per second other than managing input lag and removing stutter and just generally improving the smoothness of the game your actual what your eyes receive is still capped at 60 frames per second you cannot possibly see higher than 60 frames per second on a 60hz display because it can only possibly send you that many frames per second whereas this sends you 100 up to 144 hertz which is 100 up to 144 frames every second which means you have your eyes have more information to work with now not everybody can see a huge leap or not everybody even at a glance would notice a difference although if you actually played around with it you'd start to notice a difference and not everybody can see specifically 144 frames in a second some people can't see a difference between 120 and 144 and frankly 144 is a little strange because typically displays operate at least in the usa in increments of 30. so you have 30 30 hertz 30 frames per second 60 hertz 60 frames per second 120 hertz to 40 hertz not 144 but it allows you to see more information in a second your game will look smoother and your controls will be more accurate because there's less input latency and where you move is tracking more in real time now this has actually led to me being more accurate in games even games that i haven't touched before it's currently showing some overwatch mccree footage here i don't necessarily have the best clips to show as i am super rusty i have not touched overwatch for months prior to this past few weeks and i am landing quick snap drag headshots which is my preferred style of plays just to look over and bam get a shot i mean landing those so much easier on this monitor than i ever would and part of that is because when i'm when i was playing on my normal 4k 60hz monitor i was just feeling like i had bad aim i wasn't hitting it i mean i have decent aim i've been gaming on pc mouse and keyboard for most of my life i've console 2 but you know i've been i've been using mouse and keyboard for a while the controls are native to me but there's just certain shots that i would try to hit that i would just be unable to hit and that now i'm just even on games that i'm rusty i'm just like oh i want to hit that guy bam headshot bam headshot i still miss plenty i'm not amazing i i'm good at games but it's not like i'm god tier or a professional at this point in my life i used to compete a little bit but but this has made me feel so much better at games and it can for you too now it's worth assessing here this is specifically from the perspective perspective that'll be funny in a minute from first person shooters wherein you're in a first person perspective and you can control it that is where you will see the most benefit in terms of gameplay is in shooters and other twitchy games like that where you have to react fast you have to have specific accuracy and so most shooters i have improved third-person shooters will benefit as well and otherwise it's more of just a smoothness and comfort thing there's some like there's a lot of rpgs and top-down games and slower-paced games that would benefit a lot better in terms of your enjoyment visually from just having higher resolution and more detailed graphics at a 4k 60 screen versus lower resolution high refresh rate screen but in terms of fast paced first-person games 144 hertz takes the cake which should be obvious like no one's ever argued that it's a worse experience but the fact that i can stan sit here and say i can sit here and honestly make the bold claim that it will make you better at the games the first person especially games that you're trying to play is pretty incredible now of course you have to have some element of skill here and that's the most flawed critique that people always apply to the it'll make you better at games claim is if you suck your games you're still going to suck your games oh i don't feel any better yeah you soft to have some level skill but it's one of those things like trying to tackle input latency and wired controllers versus wireless if you have a laggy wireless controller a sound positioning those little extra things where if you're already at a certain threshold of skill or perhaps you've just always felt like input latency is pretty bad on the 60hz monitors you've used that little extra bit to get you the extra two percent higher can make a huge difference and i i've sat here and said forever i've tried high refresh rate for a long time i never thought it would be worth dropping resolution but to have a separate dedicated gaming setup i would i would say that i'm probably never going back now this has been particularly interesting for me because i'm used to using crt monitors the old tube monitors that everyone asks why i keep around that one is 69 pounds it is a 21 inch crt monitor it is huge and massive and most people don't want to deal with that but i use it for my retro games it's hooked up to my windows xp machine and the beauty of these monitors is that monitor was made in 1998 if i recall correctly i haven't looked at the sticker on the back in a while 1998 or 1999 it can go almost up to roughly 1500 p it's like 25 something by like 15 or 18 something it's like just between 1440p and 4k in terms of a 4x3 aspect ratio resolution at 85 hertz which is still higher than 60. you know it's not as significant as 144 but as its maximum resolution which honestly it's not the sharpest at that resolution it's sharper much lower resolution but at its maximum resolution it can drive in between 1440p and 4k at 85 hertz from the 90s if you go lower than that you can go to an ultra wide 1080p at 120 hertz you if you go low enough you should in theory i'm still working on tweaking the settings but i could theoretically drive a low resolution 200 hertz signal out of this monitor from the 90s and this threw me off for the longest time and actually made me switch from pc gaming back to console gaming growing up because my family you know i'm not from the richest family in the world or whatever we held on to our crts and our dlp tvs until my freshman or sophomore year of high school so i was playing halo 3 on a big 65 inch dlp box rear projection tv and i had a crt tv in my room my monitor was a hot wheel crt monitor that i had stupidly painted a checkerboard on the front that is what i used for the longest time and i had that thing cranked at like 100 hertz at one point for some resolutions 85 hertz i didn't really know what i was doing or what the advantage was of it but i saw a bigger number equals better and one of my first experiences really recognizing what re refresh rates were was i was playing halo combat evolved on the pc that the custom edition multiplayer is still amazing to this day despite the network code issues but i played the crap out of that and one day i was finally just tinkering around with the settings i felt like something felt weird and i wasn't even trying to tackle like a visual settings issue but i was tinkering with the settings and i changed it from the 60 fps cap to vsync or maybe it was 30 fps cap the vsync which locked it to the like 70 or 85 hertz that had it at the time and whatever it was probably 800 by 600 and it was so smooth and i remember calling my dad into the room and asking him to just you know he had no clue what the hell i was talking about i was just like look it looks so much smoother now and he's just like okay whatever you say but that was a game changer for me and i never really dug into why until i was older but then when we moved to the really crappy first-gen lcds that started coming out with our windows vista and later computers which were 10 5x4 1024x768 then we started to get the 1366x768 weird resolution ones that were slow input latency in the first place whereas crts had zero input lag ever and 60 hertz i started to really struggle with mouse and keyboard games i started to feel like things just really didn't feel good they just i got really frustrated there were some shooters i was playing at the time combat arms uh halo halo 1 there were a few that i just got really fresh call of duty before even and i got really frustrated that i just started not i just thought i sucked at mouse and keyboard and frankly i was using a pretty crappy mouse at the time it was whatever generic microsoft or logitech won but i i got frustrated enough that i just up and switched i just started buying all my shooters on the ps2 and ps4 i mean it would have been ps3 and xbox 360 and just went heavy into hardcore gaming for the rest or hardcore console gaming for the rest of my car or high school career because i was so frustrated with the 60 hertz so coming back to this now i mean i've still played quite a bit on crts having known what high refresh is and i enjoy the crap out of like warframe on there and iron sight games that'll run on windows xp i i got some adapters where i could sort of make it work on modern computers but modern graphics cards no longer come with analog pins required for true vga signals to get the high refresh rate out it's complicated mainly i've just gamed over here on this production monitor which is already not a low input latency in the first place so coming over to this i have been hitting so many shots that i would not have hit before that i did not feel like it hit before that i just figured i wasn't good at even on games that i was rusty at and it has felt amazing so yes this has been a long video and i have baited all of the negative comments and all of the people to tell me that i'm wrong and sorry but i'm probably not reading most of them because i've started to learn that in videos like these it's healthier just to let them go sometimes but i will make the bold claim here that 144 hertz monitors will make you a better gamer if you're already decent at gaming in terms of shooters and first person direct person tied games i believe it i've experienced it i have gotten some of my kickback i've enjoyed gaming on pc a lot more with this especially since i primarily play shooters it's been amazing to run games at 200 300 frames per second and see all 144 get displayed here see the effect it has been fantastic and i think you should check it out and this is not a sponsored video or anything like i said this monitor isn't great the reason i got this was specifically for a sponsored project i posted a few months back which you can check out somewhere in the card icon is because it has hdmi 2.0 which allows it to run directly into the elgato hd or 4k60 pro capture card so i can do some capture and things like that but otherwise for the price it's not the best monitor i'm not i will have affiliate links on amazon as always in the description below but i'll also have some other ones that i recommend because i'm not trying to sell you on a specific monitor just a concept to consider now if you're like me and could and are in a position where i was where you can only have a specific setup while 144 hertz is amazing looking for general desktop use seeing the mouse flip around and moving windows feels so much better generally for production you still want higher resolution which is why i have now separated setup so i understand if you can't switch don't necessarily but if you're building a dedicated gaming setup it's worth especially since you know it's harder to run 4k games and things like that in the first place i believe you if you're building a gaming setup with budget restrictions of any sort you will be happier with a lower resolution monitor so a 1080p or 1440p 144 hertz monitor will make you so much happier i think so

resolution monitor so a 1080p or 1440p 144 hertz monitor will make you so much happier i think so this has been me adam or eposvox here to make tech easier and more fun and hit the like button if you
