    I have no idea who Riot Games are, but you go to their website and there second link is DEI. :p

    That's pretty much everything I need to know. I will set it at 60hz.

    Och reacted to AgentQ's post in the thread New 72hz monitor, should I run it at 60hz? with Like Like.
    Does that monitor actually display 72Hz? Or does it accept a 72Hz input but run the panel at 60Hz? Past reports indicate that it frame skips and only displays 60Hz even with a 72Hz input...

    I think PAL countries still run their broadcast tv at 50Hz, because why would they change? Probably their internet tv too. Maaaaybe they run their imported TV shows at 60Hz because almost every TV over there can do it. And a lot of their CRT TVs...

    Just searched google for F1 highlights, the very first video is a 50fps one. Using my macbook right now, it does seem jerky if you pay attention. My OCD has been successfully escalated. https://youtu.be/Q6InUqrk9F4

    Because of the old PAL tv standard I assume? Incredible how these old standards still affect us. I imagine in the case of 25/50fps on 60/72/120/144hz monitors the playback software has to do some sort of frame interpolation to make it appear smooth?
  • O
    Didn't think of that... There are probably a bunch of movie/show clips on youtube with 24fps source - affirming that a 120hz monitor is ideal for everything 24/30/60. I remember years back download UK Top Gear shows in the late 2000s, watching...

    Thanks for clarifying guys. Looks like a 72hz monitor can be the best of both worlds - set it to 72 when watching 24fps movies, or set it to 60hz for youtube videos, most of which are 30/60fps. For my wifes office use it wont matter at all...

    You should always set the refresh rate for the maximum the display supports.

    I don't think VRR effectively replaces video content detection to properly display frames, or simply running at a refresh rate which is divisible by the framerate of the source video. See: your monitor isn't running at 24hz VRR, when you watch a...

    Good to know, thank you!

    Och reacted to Mr Evil's post in the thread New 72hz monitor, should I run it at 60hz? with Like Like.
    LCDs are "sample and hold" displays, which means they display an image constantly over the whole refresh period, rather than fading to black like CRTs do. Therefore there is no flickering at any refresh rate.
  • O
    Understood... but now I have even more question. Is flicker a concern at all with LCDs when VRR adjusts refresh rate to match fps? Most static refresh rate LCD monitors run at 60hz, and flicker is not a concern at that rate, but I remember back...

    I think I used the wrong term, not frame interpolation but frame pulldown - when it comes to 24fps videos on 60hz screens they use a 3:2 pulldown. I read more on it, apparently the pull down is not preferable at all, when they play movies on...

    It is actually my wife's office computer, she used Chrome exclusively. I tried playing some youtube videos, and I think I they appear jerkier with 72hz refresh vs 60hz refresh, but it may be my mind playing tricks on me. Her computer has a Quadro...

    Och replied to the thread 42" OLED MASTER THREAD.
    After reading up various threads all over the internet, I think I've decided on the PG42UQ. Matte screen over the LG/Sony TVs is my biggest deciding factor.

    LG C2 48in user here. It is a glossy screen. I use it for everything. Work, gaming, Win11 stuff, resumes. EVERYTHING. Never had a problem with it at night or in the day. Then again, glare doesn't bother my eyes at all. I am 6'2 and sit about 44...

    Och replied to the thread 42" OLED MASTER THREAD.
    On the LG C2 vs Sony A90K, do they have matte or glossy screens? Are they acceptable as general use PC monitors, not just gaming? Working in Autocad and Solidworks?

    Just bought a new monitor for my office, LG 40WP95C-W.AUS - an ultrawide display with 5K resolution and 72hz refresh rate. I wonder if I should be running it at 60hz instead, as most youtube videos are now at 30 and 60fps, and it does not divide...
