Can i notice the difference between 120 and 144fps in 144hz?

[dawgx]

So sometimes while im playing fortnite the fps drops to 100 or 120, those are rare though, can i notice them while im playing on 144hz? cause im planning to get a 144hz monitor.

That will depend on your personal vision parameters. Your sight is specific to you. Some say that they can't really see anything faster than 20 Hz. Some claim to notice differences at anything below 200 Hz. So it's very subjective.

You have to realize that sight and vision are two different things. Sight is simply receiving light. Vision is what occurs when that light has been processed by your brain.

What screen are you playing on currently?

20ishHz may not be as noticeable between 120 and 144 as is going from 60Hz to 120.

Can sort of notice a difference from 85fps, if those are your specs in your sig, a 1080p 144Hz monitor will be a game changer for you and you'll never go back to 60Hz thats how good it is. Not just smoother playback but peripheral response from mouse will be greatly improved also.

I did say it will be a game changer

Oh you edited. Will need to adjust your aim a bit because itll feel different but youll be better for it.
