Who needs 1000hz refresh rate? I understand it's impressive, but 120hz already looks smooth to the human eye.
Yeah, for me, I'm looking for prettier not fastest after 120 Hz or so
Who needs 4K when 1080 already looks sharp to the human eye.
Humans can't see more than 24 fps anyways
I think the perceptual limit is around 60 or 80fps, but don't quote me on that
as a rhythm gamer, I can say you're full of shit lol
I have 240hz and the difference between 120hz and 240hz is somewhat noticeable, don't see why I'd need any more than this though
Dumb comparison
Depends on the size of screen, surely.
Angular definition. You have to factor in screen size and distance to observer, otherwise it's meaningless
Who needs 1000hz 4k when 120hz 2k is already stupidly expensive to achieve with most AAA games
The obvious awnser would be VR and AR where the faster the refresh rate is the less likely you are to get motion sick. A display with a refresh rate that high would be displaying a frame every millisecond meaning if the rest of the hardware could keep up a headset using this display would be able to properly display the micro movements your head makes.
Here's a real-world use case that also won't require insane GPU power.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
It's not about how smooth video is, it's about latency. You can easily notice the difference between 1ms and 10ms.
I have a 280hz monitor and it doesn't look smooth in motion
