I believe that many players in the selection of monitors, the two factors that are most concerned are resolution and refresh rate. Today we will talk about the problem of refresh rate, is the ultra-high refresh rate display really suitable for the vast majority of players? From 60 frames, to 144 frames, or even to 240 frames, the refresh rate of the display is soaring, but can your device keep up with the performance? If you can't reach such a high refresh rate, you will spend money unjustly, so don't just pursue the refresh rate value, but combine it with the performance of your own equipment.
Briefly introduce the refresh rate, the refresh rate refers to the number of times the display refreshes the page in one second, the unit is hertz (Hz), such as the display refreshed 60 times in a second, then the refresh rate of the display is 60Hz. Theoretically, the higher this value, the smoother the image seen by the human eye.
The corresponding frame rate is what our game often calls FPS (Frames Per Second), which refers to the number of frames displayed per second, specific to the game is the number of times the graphics card outputs the screen per second, such as the graphics card can render and output 60 times per second, then its corresponding frame rate is 60FPS.
Many players believe that the higher the refresh rate of the monitor, the smoother the display effect, which actually requires hardware and software. Want to experience the game of 144FPS, first of all, the game can not lock the frame, if the game itself locks the frame, you need to unlock after getting a higher frame rate than 144 to have a smooth foundation, if you can't unlock it, then give up the high-brush monitor.
The second is that the hardware performance should achieve a high frame rate output, especially the graphics card. In general, in order to experience a smooth 144FPS picture, the average frame count of the graphics card is higher than this value, because the rendering speed of the graphics card is not uniform, so the average frame count of 144 will cause the picture to be not silky enough for some time.
Finally, the display of this big mark, experience the 144FPS screen naturally needs a 144Hz high-brush monitor, if you pay attention to the quality of the picture, you need to open the vertical synchronization in the game, which means that the graphics card and the display screen of the monitor can be refreshed synchronously, effectively avoiding screen tearing, and further improving the experience of the game.
Advanced vertical synchronization is G-Sync/FreeSync technology. G-Sync is NVIDIA's hardware-level VSYNC technology, while FreeSync is AMD's technology, which allows the display to refresh with the graphics card, reducing tearing while avoiding unnecessary screen delays. Monitors equipped with G-Sync/FreeSync can display the picture in a more timely manner and reduce the interference to the user by reducing tearing, so it is also necessary for players with high display requirements to give priority to monitors equipped with G-Sync/FreeSync.
To sum up, the smoothness of the game screen depends on the refresh rate, frame rate and the relationship between the three games, which is somewhat similar to the barrel effect, that is, the lowest of the three factors determine the smoothness of the screen. If your games and hardware can't fully support 144FPS, pursuing a 144Hz display is not a wise choice, of course, the local tycoons are at will.
