quixxius 67 Posted August 19, 2019 Hey just want to hear your opinion is APB really worth getting 144hz monitor? currently I have 60hz monitor with beast pc. Would it increase my skill? xD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kingdom 18 Posted August 19, 2019 Not just for APB, get it for any game. If you have a "beast" of a PC, then it's somewhat wasted on a 60hz screen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(be sure to actually make it run at 144hz though once you get it. you do need to set that in windows/nvidiaa control panel/etc) but tbh, when i first got mine i didn't really notice a difference, except when i looked at my old screen again in comparison. (only have 120hz though, bought that aw3418dw 1-2 yrs ago) Edited August 19, 2019 by neophobia 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nitronik 348 Posted August 19, 2019 144hz is a great quality of life upgrade for everything, even day to day usage. And it does allow the game to run at higher than 60fps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And it does allow the game to run at higher than 60fps ^this^ Once you go above 60Hz, you will never want to go back. Even jumping to just 75Hz feels better. Won't make you a pro gamer or anything, but it's just a better gaming experience. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good IPS panel with 144hz is still expensive. And one will need to spend a lot of cash for modern implementation of VA that comes close to IPS colors. TNs are cheap but colors are washed out even on the more expensive ones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TNs are cheap but colors are washed out even on the more expensive ones. but for gaming TN is totally fine. i went IPS but especially if you only play games/watch some shows on your pc sometimes and are on a budget, going IPS is quite unreasonable.

Flaws 1033 Posted August 21, 2019 Anything below 120/144hz is unacceptable for gaming in 2019 (as long as you can afford it). So yes, absolutely, not just for APB but for ANY activity that involves your PC. There are no downsides and only MASSIVE upsides. Get a new monitor ASAP. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cr0 328 Posted August 22, 2019 (edited) really is worth the upgrade. Everyone who've upgraded from 60 to 144 will tell you there is a big difference. Just moving the mouse pointer around after setting the new monitor to 144 hz you can already tell a big difference. Go for it.
