if you want crispier and ensure shots that hits I say 240hz but 165 is enough already tbh

165hz is barely better than 144hz, basically same when you consider other areas of monitor are also important. 6.9(4)ms vs 6.(06)ms, when the less than 1ms difference is rendered irrelevant by response time differences between monitors.

What model? Don't get swayed by tens of bucks difference. Quality of monitor is also improtant.

Which iiyama G-Master? If it's VA, then just forget about it. Anywayowouldn't pick any high refresh rate monitor without at very least having seen photos from ufo test performance.

dont buy shitty monitor

Never heard of this brand

If you can afford it get 240hz, because if you get 165hz you may be satisfied for like a week but then you'll want to buy a 240hz.

Cheapskate pays twice. Buy something you're not satisfied with and you'll end up buying another one soon enough.

you will use this monitor for many months, so i think its better to spend a bit more money and get 240hz monitor. talking about difference, i can say that there is significant diffirence even between 165hz and 240hz

Do you have 144hz now? You won't notice any difference between 144 and 165. 240 is slightly noticable but as someone mentioned above it's such a small difference you would only really benefit from it if you were a pro. It's better to go for a 1440p monitor with 144hz.

I heard after 144hz you don't have too much advantage

2021-01-27 15:05

I just switched Gameplay wise I didnt notice a difference But I was surprised when I did the reaction test (because someone posted here) and it dropped 15ms avg from what I remembered (190ms avg to 175ms avg) Only you can tell if its worth
