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

Is it possible that there are ghosting issues with the panel? I had a 120hz monitor at work at one point that had ghosting issues so bad it made it look barely any better than a 60hz panel. Going from 60hz to 120hz+ should definitely be noticeable to most people

That's my current theory, BC that monitor is a super cheap acer monitor

If its a cheap VA panel and not an IPS one, the chances of smear is fairly high

I can't remember the model, but it was the cheapest monitor (hrr) I could find at the time
