Monitor 200 FPS+
- Thread starter DallasTX9
- Start date
A monitor that can produce 200 FPS (ala 200 Hz) doesn't exist. You could likely get a monitor you could overclock and get closer to that number, but the visuals and stability could be put into question.
Also, if you're just talking about FPS, that's up to your rig to produce. There's no real need for ~200 FPS.
And you also didn't list which game you're looking to get 200 FPS in, so that doesn't help at all.
But if it's a game like CSGO, and you spent $1500, and you're not getting 200+ FPS, then you went somewhere completely wrong with your build.
If it's a game like Titanfall, or Crysis 3, probably not possible to get 200+ FPS.

I think there used to be some CRT monitors that would run at 200 Hz, but only for 640x480 resolution.

Note that there are (a very limited number) monitors with a 240Hz refresh rate and the monitors available are expensive, i.e.; >$500 USD.
The thing is, the human eye can see as many fps as the system/game can generate. However, the brain is only capable of perceiving some or most of all of those images. A system/game could be putting out 200fps, but your brain will cut out most of the images because it is simply too much information for the brain to process into a fluid picture for your to perceive. Say a system/game is putting out 200fps and is showing images of an enemy running and gunning for you. Your eye will see all 200fps being generated, but your brain will only process some of those images providing they are similar enough to form a cohesive image for you to perceive.
Let's suppose 200fps and let's take just 5 of those images as still shots, if the 3rd image out of the 5 of the enemy running and gunning was missing his helmet and boots, your eye would see all 5 images but your brain would not process the image with the missing boots and helmet because it was not similar enough to the images before and after to allow you to perceive the missing boots and helmet. You may, on some imperceptible level, think something was wrong, but you will not be able to explain what or why. With that said, there is a significant difference between what your eyes can see and what your brain will process into images that you can perceive.
But to answer your question, with a budget of $200USD, just buy the monitor with the biggest screen size at the maximum resolution with the quickest response time your $200 will buy; which will most likely be a 23" or 24" LED backlit LCD with a max resolution of 1920x1080. Like this one...ASUS VX248H Black 24" 1ms (GTG) HDMI Widescreen LED Backlight LCD Monitor.
Hope this helps. Good luck!

@chunkymonster You might be thinking of plasma TVs that claim a refresh rate of 240hz or even 600hz, but that's only the internal refresh. The input signal is still 60hz.

No...Eizo released a monitor with an effective 240Hz refresh rate...
Agreed, the input signal is still 60Hz.

Wow, I didn't know about that one. 240 Hz internal refresh, <1ms claimed response time, and a VA panel? I wonder how they pulled that off. Also, I looked closer at the specifications, and it says it takes a 120hz signal (albeit limited to 1024x768 when using HDMI instead of DVI or DisplayPort).
