I'm having a little trouble wrapping my head around this, but it sounds as if I were to use the dual DVI output on the GTX 760 card listed above, I could get 2560x1440 data to transmit @ 60 Hz (e.g. 60 frames that size each second).
On the receiving end the monitor can refresh, once overclocked, up to 120Hz....but if the original image is only sent 60 times a second it seems to me that a 120Hz monitor offers nothing over a 60Hz monitor (the 120 Hz monitor will simply redraw each frame twice which, as it hasn't changed, offers no new data).
I'm sure I'm just not understanding something as everyone raves about 120Hz monitors (though maybe not at 2560x1440 is the reason?).
Any help would be appreciated to clear up my misunderstanding.
