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

Try the UFO test. https://www.testufo.com/
If you still can’t see the difference there may be a setting on the monitor or PC preventing you from seeing it.
I’ve never seen any difference with the top two with that test. My monitor is 144hz and TBH I might as well have saved my money and got 60Hz ones.
We’re not all hardcore gamers trained to see miniscule differences.
Humans can see a single solid color frame changing at 1000 fps. So if you don’t notice a difference between 60 and 165 fps something isn’t working. It’s not your eyes.
Seeing a solid color frame change is completely different from the minor changes generally occurring per frame, especially in media such as movies and games which are continuous.
The Hobbit movies at 48 instead of 24 fps still looked much smoother and better.
I vastly preferred them in 24 fps, they looked awful in 48 fps to me.
Your usecase may be different, but I am usually not required to catch solid color frames in my day to day computer use.
The difference shouldn’t be miniscule, though. If you’ve never been able to see a difference, my money’s on not setting the refresh rate in Windows. It’s not automatic.
It’s mostly marketing. Films are perfect at 24fps and gamer bros think they can see framerates ten times that.
…240FPS is insanely noticeable.

You dont have to be a hardcore gamer to see the difference. A lot of people who use phones see the difference 90/120hz makes over 60.
You’re either trolling or you have a 60hz monitor lawl
Or it just doesn’t work right in their browser. It says in big bold letters “VSYNC is not available on the Linux platform” and at 960 pixels per second I actually can’t tell the difference between the 100hz and 50hz lines. If I slow it to 480 pixels per second it becomes apparent, but I still feel like that’s browser funkiness rather than a true frame rate difference. I don’t think it’s actually running at 100fps.
It’s not my eyes, btw. I can usually tell the difference very easily. I had a problem with my Nvidia drivers for a while that would often make it reset to 60hz on reboot, instead of my display’s max of 100. It was always immediately obvious to me just from the mouse cursor, even without consciously looking for it.
LOL as I was writing this, I reloaded the page and now it’s very very obvious at 960. Something’s definitely inconsistent on my device. Go figure.
I have a 60 Hz monitor and it doesn’t even try and display any UFOs above 60 Hz, just 15, 30, and 60. So if they see a row with 144 Hz, then they have a 144 Hz monitor.
I’ve really upset the gamer bros here…
I use 165hz for art and productivity lawl
Twice the refresh rate means twice the frames, so I’m twice as productive.
Or at any rate, that’s what I’m telling my job to try to get them to buy me a high spec gaming monitor.
Precisely!
Do you have it enabled in Windows under display settings tho? It sounds like you aren’t actually having it enabled. Other possibility is that your monitor has very low response time and everything blurs.
I’m not sure it it’s possible to not see a difference in refresh rate jump this big until about 160Hz.
Cool, I’ve never seen this before. Thanks!
