I can barely tell the difference between 60 and 165 hz on my monitor (lemmy.zip)

Title says it all (i have turned on 165hz on settings). Its a cheap monitor, do some 165hz monitors not truly give you that experience? Or are my eyes fucked

Haven't read the entire thread so apologies if you've already provided this information but could you show us a picture of your monitor's osd with the input source information? That should tell you right there that your input device isn't sending out what you desire.

Also if you don't have a >144hz option in your os's display options, try disconnecting any other monitors you have plugged in.

Yeah I checked, it works, did a lil test with the cursor and there's visibly more images on my 165hz one, I think it just has bad eno7gh smearing that it doesn't work properly
